I guess we both don't dilate easily even with the pitotion.<br/><br/>Do you know if you had a back labor because didn't they have a hard time monitoring the contractions and Lily's heartbeat? Mom was saying that they had a hard time monitoring your contractions. Or is that when she meant the whole thing with you not breathing and having to put an oxygen mask on?

Sounds like a lot of it was a repeat of when I gave birth to Abby! I started contractions at 4am. You were in the same room as I was. I probably had the same anesthesiologist as you did this time. I did not throw up, but they had to put the oxygen mask on me. I don't remember exactly why, but I think it was because the Abby's heartbeat was beating way to fast and it would help the baby breathe too. They let you and Fran in the delivery room along with Mom and Jack (I wished Cheryl was there too!). I pushed for 15 minutes and had Abby at 11:51 pm. They let me "nest" another day since because Abby had to stay another day under the heater because of her low temp and blood pressure. I also had to have 2 stitches with Dr. Mar! Maybe I should ask to have Dr. Brusca deliver this one? LOL. Thanks for sharing that! Sounds like a lot of it was a repeat of when I gave birth to Abby! I started contractions at 4am.
