oh what a night!
so after i posted on here, i started getting a headache, from the pitocin..well, it got worse and worse and they gave me stadol...to make a long story short, i spent almost the entire night with a horrible headache and puking my guts out! then my blood pressure went crazy and they put me on mag sulfate, which made me want to just keel over and die..i have heard stories about that stuff but it is really the work of the devil! during all of this i made no progress at all..they broke my water as soon as i was barely dialated but it didnt do much at all. by this time, i pretty much hated everyone!
so in the morning, they checked me again and i was at a 5. i call my husband and sister, crying about how i was never going to have the baby blah blah blah blah..well, i started hurting after i got off the phone and they came in and informed me that the baby was coming NOW and to start pushing and after 4 little pushes, baby francis was here!!!!!
i cried my head off afterwards, i was so happy...he is 7 pounds and 11 ounces..my smallest baby yet. my husband missed the birth because i told him that i had hours to go and i wanted him to get some rest. he has made up for that though and has been holding him all day. i havent done anything but eat and sleep because i am still on the mag sulfate and very woozy.
