Ep 261: Nicole’s Birth Story - The Line Between Pain and Suffering
Manage episode 421910602 series 2787115
Sometimes a “beautiful” birth doesn’t mean getting what you wanted - it means making the right decisions for yourself along the way. After being stuck at 5 cm for TWELVE HOURS, Nicole decided that it was time to change course. I’ll give away that she did have a vaginal birth, but it was nothing like she planned or anticipated.
In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:
- Why Nicole eventually agreed to a low dose of pitocin
- What happened when the pitocin was increased
- Whether or not her water broke
- How her partner supported the decision to get an epidural
- What made her so happy with the anesthesiologist
- How quickly she progressed after the epidural
- Why doctors were concerned about her baby’s heart rate
- How a lactation consultant helped with breastfeeding issues
