Una Lorelei was born this morning at 457!
My water broke yesterday at 530am. I went and saw my midwife at 1020. Called H at 11 and said it's go time! We checked inat 1245. Because I was not having contractions they gave me cytotec. By 6 contractions still weren't close enough together so i got another dose. Contractions started picking up and I labored until 10 when they moved us to the tub room. At 1130 I was finally 6cm dilated and 100% effaced so they let me labor in the tub. I labored there until almost 3 when they started having trouble finding baby's heart beat, my temp and bp went up and my oxygen dropped. I had been at 9cms for 2 hours as well. So I got out, and was beyond exhausted at this point. They still couldn't keep baby's heat on the monitor so they put an electrode in her head. I was also at 10 cm finally but baby was only at zero station and in distress. So I ended up getting an interthecal and resting for 30 minutes, then called the nurses and midwife and pushed out baby in 17 minutes. We are so in love!
