It started at 1:25am when I was awaken by a very uncomfortable feeling. Something didn't feel right and I went to the bathroom where I noticed something that I shouldn't have been seeing at 33.6 weeks pregnant. My 1st thought was that I'm getting ready to have this baby. I told my husband that we needed to go to the hospital and we needed to go now. He didn't quite believe me so we woke up the toddler and took her with us.
The contractions began. Alright these ain't no Braxton Hixes. (lol)
The admission nurse asked me question really quickly and spoke in sentences that let me know things were about to start moving really quickly. Whenever your admission nurse says, "Ok Mrs. Hunter, whose here with you?" You know it's about to get rocky. The doctor had to let my husband know that they discovered that my darling son was in a breech position, I was 8cm dilated...moving quickly to 9cm, and that I would have to have an emergency c-section, where I would be put to sleep and intubated. He said okay, and that he would take our daughter to his mom's house.
This is when the party really started rolling. I tried to look at the clock and mentally record what time it was. Probably around twoish. So before I was knocked out, this is what I remember.
- Being told that my son was in a breech position and that I would have to have an emergency c-section
- Being asked if I wanted a tubal litigation. What am I being sued for? lol
