Day Nine: Never Say Never (Part Four)At 36 weeks I was dilated to a 4, the doctor on call did not want to deliver where we had planned since my regular doctor was not there. They gave me a shot to stop the contractions and sent me by ambulance to a bigger hospital about 30 minutes away. During this time my mom began driving to Kansas. The shot I was given to stop my contractions worked extremely well. Once we arrived and settled in at the hospital my contractions did not begin again. Which meant the medical staff had to gave me Pitocin (better known as “fire water”) to get things rolling again. The baby had been breech since the first sonogram and had not changed positions, he couldn’t move because there was no fluid for him to float in. My entire family had arrived at the hospital throughout the day as we waited for contractions to return and labor to progress. At about 10:00 p.m. my mom arrived, and Baby Conner was born at 10:36 p.m. He came breech, meaning among other things that the doctor announced “it’s a boy” before he was fully delivered. -Anonymous To Be Continued (Tomorrow)
