k2bdeutmeyer Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Baby arrived on 4-17 at 2:26pm. I went in for an induction (which really was only having my water broken) at 7:30am and was already 4cm and contracting (had been for days). They broke my water a little after 8am. Labor was relatively "easy". I was still talking through contractions at 7cm. Then, one contraction felt normal, and the very next I had a slight urge to push. They asked me to get in bed to check me and by the time I was in bed I had a 3rd contraction and a STRONG urge to push. Baby was born less than 30 min after that normal contraction (at 7cm). So.......I know you want to know...... BOY?? or GIRL???? Please welcome...........Kiran Paul who was 9lbs 0.4oz and 21.75in He lost 10% of his birth weight and was down to 8lbs 2oz, but he's doing better now and was 8lbs 8oz yesterday. I had been having pubic bone pain prior to delivery and was very much looking forward to feeling better after baby was out. Unfortunately, it only got WORSE. By a lot. For the first few days after delivery, I literally could not will my legs to move. They put me on Lortab initially and then switched me to Percocet. I'm still on the Percocet. They also sent me home with a walker. Now, it's just a matter of time. DH goes back to work tomorrow and I'm really not looking forward to it. Sigh. Anyway.....thanks for thinking of me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k2bdeutmeyer Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 He is so beautiful! Congrats! What is the pain from? Will it go away? I've never heard of that. It's where the pelvic bones separate too much.
