Kenadie's Birth Story (Really long and copied from pal)

Hey everyone .. Finally getting a minute to post her story.
Short version: 10/27/08 753am 5.37lbs 17.25 inches

Long version: So I went to the doc 10/20 and they said she was frank breech and that we would try a version on 11/11 and then do an induction. At that appt i told him something was not right something was wrong. He checked her fluid and said she is fine from that aspect but did not have a u/s tech to check growth or placenta. Told me to come back on 10/27 and he would have them do it. To keep an eye on fetal movement and what not. Okay great. So 10-26 i had an odd feeling that day.. like tons of anxiety.. even on friday something did not sit well with me. and i completed almost everything at work and they said i would have her over the weekend bc of the way i was acting. So back to 10-26 i had contrx for the most of the day.. did not think a thing of it since well you ladies know my history my uterus does not shut up! lol. Dh and i went and got my mom and we took the kids to haunt the zoo.. we even joked around about what if i went in labor there. well contrx were slamming me every 1.5mins but again thought nothing of it. We had tons of fun with the kids and my mom. When we were done i told my mom .. something is not right.. kenadie is not moving alot. She says go home lay down.. drink something sugary and see what happens. So on the drive home i told aaron (dh) that i had this weird feeling we would have her tomorrow. He said yeah right and laughed me off. Well we get home i do my macro econ exam and have huge anxity.. like crazy. I told my dh i was going to bed now that i felt kenadie do a dance and was fine. Well i went to bed.. had a nice little dream that included an O. *blush* I woke up when dh's alarm went off for work and felt wet. Thought it was from my nice little dream.. and told dh to help me roll over that my hips hurt and i think i need to go pee. I roll over and gush in my bed. I told dh umm i think my water just broke or i peed on myself. He said yeah right.. prob just exaggerating again. Then i sit up in bed.. GUSH! Umm hun my water is broke... still does not believe me and my 4yro is now awake and tells me i need a spanking for peeing my panties. I stand up niagra falls happens.. really dh believed me this time! It soaked my pants, sock, the floor. I went pee and was in a bit of denial..then i stood up and niagra falls the 2nd happened. Thank god i put on an overnight pad! lol. I told dh i would drive myself.. yeah did not sit well so i called my mom bc i could not get anyone else to wake up to answer their phone. I come on here let you ladies know niagra falls happens and we are off to hossy. I talk to the oncall on the drive she was a pia.. The one i HATE! I about kill my mom in the car due to the pain of the contrx. I thought iwas going to DIE! I get to the hossy not a damn wheelchair in sight! So i steel a valet chair. With a towel under me bc now my pad is full and overflowing on my pants. We get up to LD and the lady at the desk says "are you in pain?" NO SH#$ SHURLOCK! then she says "are you sure you did not pee on yourself?" lady if i have this much pee we are really in an emergency situation.. your bladder not supposed to do that! The lady walks me down to my room and i leave a water trail. (what she gets! ha!) I lay in the bed the nurse comes in and goes now how do you know she is breech? Umm just xray vision? I had an u/s! Well i was dilated to a 3. (big shocker.. had been for the longest!) And she could not feel the head.. although she tried and tried. I swear i am still sore from that! I ask her for pain meds she says wait on doc to call. U/s comes in and verifies position and the room starts moving pretty fast. The u/s nurse goes what is wrong. i am in pain.. she says hun labor is not meant to be fun and unpainful. Oh ladies i about kill the nurse! The nurse made me labor for almost 3hrs with NO DRUGS AT ALL! Knowing i was a freaking C! ERH! They finally roll me back at 730am get the spinal and some drugs.. AH! The doc starts cutting me..reaches in, has to stretch my muscles and tells that this is really going to hurt bc they dont usually have to cut and spread this far and then says omg..(not what you want to hear)then says alisha she is really small. Okay let me see dude. then pulls her out butt first and she is just this peanut..as my ob pulled her out he says alisha she is so tiny and a peanut! They wisk her to the nicu team and daddy. No one would tell me what was going on with her.. I could hear her cry so that kept me calm. Then nicu nurse comes and says here mom give her a kiss and off they went. Doc kicked my mom and my dh out bc i started hemorrhaging. He finally got that calmed down right before they put me under and then did my tubal (thank god!, i threatened him before the surgery that i would tie him to the bed if he did not do it!). While accessing my child and my placenta.. they determined she stopped growing somewhere about 34.5-35wks.. she had dangerously low glucose levels. they put a tube down just to get it down her bc they could not wait for her to suck on a bottle. then kenadie could not do the suck,swallow, breathe thing due to her being early and her growth stopped. but we got right on top of trying and they watched her like a hawk. They also said her jaundice levels were pretty high at day 2 and kept creeping up. 15 when we were dc. The day of dc the nurse comes in to tell me that kenadie has a murmur and they are concerned about this. She gives me the worst scenarios.. I was poed bc the doc did not say a thing. Come to find out the doc did chart it down but was going to tell me at the appt if it were louder. Alot of preemies have this issue and it goes away around day 3. The nurse took it upon herself to say something. So Friday they said it was worse but she is gaining weight and the jaundice was still at almost 15. The pedi also informed us had we waited till 11/11 we might not have had such a good outcome. So i guess my uterus was smart for one day! :)
Again so sorry for keeping you everyone hanging.
