Ep 265: Lillie’s Birth Story - A True Emergency Cesarean
Manage episode 429138661 series 2787115
In this birth story episode, you’re going to hear what a true emergency cesarean is like. Lillie was induced due to gestational diabetes and preeclampsia at 37 weeks. After 36 hours in labor, just as she was transitioning to push, her baby went into distress and she was rushed to the operating room for an emergency cesarean birth.
Now Lillie felt like this was a pretty scary and traumatic birth but one of the things that really helped her was that she had learned about all possible birthing situations. Knowing what to expect isn't going to prevent trauma but it most certainly can make things easier.
In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:
- How long Lillie took to prepare for parenthood once she decided to have a baby
- Which health concerns she had coming into the pregnancy
- Why she specifically sought out a Black woman OB-GYN
- Why she saw a maternal fetal medicine specialist for her pregnancy
- Why pitocin can’t be administered continuously
- How many attempts it took to place the epidural
- How a nurse with conveniently small hands helped dislodge Lillie’s baby from her pelvis
