I decied to have an Epidural and labor was wondeful after that for everyone (Charles and the nurses included). With Caleb I wanted the Epidural when I was 7 months pregnant and with Tatiana I wanted it shortly after she was concieved. Desiree's Epidural was the worst since I waited so long it was hard to hold still while having frequent contractions. Caleb and Tatiana's were great because I knew going in that was the first thing I wanted. <br />With Desiree Charles kept making such a big deal about watching her head crown that with Caleb and Tatiana I had a mirror so I could watch the head crown.

C-section was called--and necessary since his head was coming down crooked. Riley was a scheduled repeat c-section (I wasn't dilated at all at 39 weeks). Both c-sections were super easy, but I do wonder what it would feel like to deliver naturally!Nolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810320393827535743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366036835633596373.post-43695014931258433952009-09-07T06:37:58.641-07:002009-09-07T06:37:58.641-07:00I still am amazed by your labor story with Aiden. ...I still am amazed by your labor story with Aiden. You were one strong woman! Yikes, 60 hours with Andrew? I was induced too, but luckily my boy came after 12. <br /><br />Oh shoot, speaking of my boy, sounds like he's up early... darn it.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16946953061789104912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366036835633596373.post-56453732920605564342009-09-06T21:51:58.092-07:002009-09-06T21:51:58.092-07:00Interesting.

I was hoping for a regular delivery, too, but had to get a c-section because I wouldn't dilate and I had to have amniocentesis since my water broke. I was in labor for 17 hours before they finally gave me a c-section. It was very easy, but I was sad that I couldn't hold Gavin immediately after he was born.Kelly Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08774586003242648130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366036835633596373.post-85842083780846843732009-09-06T19:38:44.215-07:002009-09-06T19:38:44.215-07:00You should be proud -- you have three beautiful ki...You should be proud -- you have three beautiful kids!!Krissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16709039505744328528noreply@blogger.com
