I will most definitely take your experience into consideration when the time comes for the labor & delivery of our little girl! I definitely need to get clarificaton on when an epidural is finally allowed at my hospital because tears trickled down my cheeks as I read about your excruciating pain - you are amazingly strong! I have only heard positive epidural stories, and you truly went through hell just to be completely knocked out and finally wake up to a fog of confusion that turned slowly into the joy of meeting your Charlie! Your husband is a wonderful man! I know it is months later and all is well, but what a journey you all went through! Congrats on being such a lovely family of 3! :)Kim in Victoria, TXnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4064423391902022487.post-12399478784223687352009-07-09T08:34:24.707-07:002009-07-09T08:34:24.707-07:00I'm so sorry that your labor and delivery was ...I'm so sorry that your labor and delivery was so effed up.

But you made it through with your beautiful little boy as you reward! :)<br /><br />And I hope this doesn't make you feel bad, but I was able to get my epidural at 3 cm.

How scary!<br /><br />If it makes you feel any better, my mom had to be put under general and have a C section with both my brother and I - she also has scoliosis. With me she pushed for almost 5 hours before my dad physically threatened the doctor (that's a true story).inflammatory writhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923322007776358065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4064423391902022487.post-29316230875129493902009-06-22T05:45:31.257-07:002009-06-22T05:45:31.257-07:00Wow, amazing.
