Rebekah's Birth Story

I was due on July 9, but didn't have baby until July 19. So I was 10 days over due and my labor was 58 hours from start to finish. It was sheer hell.

I was induced 3 times because my contractions kept stopping. Baby was facing the wrong way so they had to rotate her while she was still in me. Then I had my baby girl after pushing forever. Her cord was wrapped around her neck. I tore, had lots of stitches, a uterus infection 5 days after giving birth, was on antibiotics for 4 weeks. And to top it all off I developed nasty anal fissures (I know, TMI.)

Well there's my birth story, and it was all natural... no drugs at all. My husband and sister were my rock and support, and it was all worth it, I love my baby girl to bits!!
