I dunno. <br /><br />I would not say much pain, because that 1-2 hours from one to three AM was extremely painful. I just did not go for several hours like normal people. <br /><br />Thank you again for this babie it's fabulous!! And it's going to Grandmama's and the baptism this weekend too. :)CherryBlossomMJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440914569835398109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411570645486866541.post-86163438408068861822009-08-22T00:15:36.389-05:002009-08-22T00:15:36.389-05:00your OB nurse/friend here says Charlotte was born ...your OB nurse/friend here says Charlotte was born at 37 6/7 weeks. your OB appt was at 37 5/7ths. (7/7ths = one whole day, but by your EDC of 8/15, you were 37 6/7)<br /><br />your story is a very rare one. back labor is heard of frequently, but usually more painful. and as a professional, and with your preference to go natural, without your bag of water broken, and contractions already in place and working... why did they start you on Pit???? Unnecessarily painful!!! <br />Watch your next labor!!! if you didn't have much pain with Appleblossom....you may not with the next either. <br />I'm glad all are home safe and sound all snuggle like, with a cute handmade blankie ;)Amy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03427496138814239736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411570645486866541.post-51951606127611082792009-08-21T13:25:26.769-05:002009-08-21T13:25:26.769-05:00Well it makes me feel good to know that I'm no...Well it makes me feel good to know that I'm not that odd of a case after all! <br /><br />I do agree, she is quite a beauty. :)CherryBlossomMJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440914569835398109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411570645486866541.post-77156024696210148232009-08-21T12:51:16.688-05:002009-08-21T12:51:16.688-05:00I, too, had no pain from labor until my low back s...I, too, had no pain from labor until my low back started hurting close to labor. I was told to quit pushing, when I wasn't!! Mine was only 6'4 1/2oz. Haven't they ever heard of back labor???<br /><br />By the way, your baby girl is one of the most beautiful babies I think I've ever seen!!!

The nurs...Everyone's birth story is different. The nurses were surprised that I was handling the contractions just fine until I was fully dilated. It just felt like a little more than the normal monthly cramps and I could take it. When I asked for meds, they were like, nope it's time to push!<br /><br />Glad everyone's doing well now. She's a beauty.<br /><br />--Anna<br /><a href="http://diaryofaneccentric.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Diary of an Eccentric</a>Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08046635675540466183noreply@blogger.com
