Because you had mom moving, you tried everything to get baby out, and baby had such terrible decels, that was all evidence you made the right decision. I would rather have scars on my body than a lifeless or damaged baby.<br /><br />Blessings!<br />DawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31146535.post-42501789987066622762009-08-15T02:55:00.371-04:002009-08-15T02:55:00.371-04:00Wow!

When I was trying to push out my stuck baby my doctor and no other nurses were present to help because everyone had screwed up! Even the nurse delivering my baby with only my scared husband by her side didn't do the standard maneuvers she was supposed to. Thankfully, she did yank my baby out with no damage. It was a "mild dystocia" but it scared the heck out of me! I fired my OB the next day. I'm sure that you would've been at my delivery. You sound very conscientious, Dr. Whoo.

I hadn't yet fully dialated, and his heartrate dropped into the 50s and 60s....don't remember for how long, exactly, but I remember the medical staff moving SO FAST. 3 years later, I am still so amazed at how everyone worked together, and so calmly (at least it seemed that way to me...I'm sure it was different for them!) I changed positions, got O2, all to no avail - not a happy baby. Things moved like lightening after that, and I was put under general anesthesia for my son's birth. Not exactly how I planned to welcome him into the world, but so grateful for his health - after APGARs of 3 & 9.<br />No worries: your patient will only best remember the outcome ~ a live, healthy, and happy baby.

Well, when you got to the prolonged 60s all I could say was "oh F**k" and I was literally on the edge of my seat. <br /><br />I tell women all the time that if their worst case scenario is a c-section, they are living a great life. And if it comes to pass, they are still living a great life. and I think a lot of "you should get the heck over it" when they act like a C is the end of the owrld because they didn't get the beautiful natural out of hospital birth they imagined. <br /><br />Sometimes the baby has another agenda. You did everything right. Everything. You tried to get her a vaginal birth, but not so long that she has a damaged baby. You got her the C efficiently and effectively. You are my heroine tonight, Dr. Whoo. I love docs like you, who care about it so much, but who also are so skilled and so competent and can save the day when no one else could-- especially when I couldn't. <br /><br />You rock.Lizardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01718844284081950852noreply@blogger.com
