My H is going to be taking over soon. I can't sleep because I'm in pain but also can't relax or try to get any of my labor exercises in because DD is so ill.
What awful timing! Poor C. Poor mama. How is it going? Maybe consider going to the hospital for an epi so you can sleep? Not sure what your birth plan is.
DD temp is 98. Cx slowed as I've been trying to rest , I think this will be the long miserable labor I had with her. Which is so freaking frustrating. They hurt enough where I can't sleep and wake up but not enough where is actual labor that I can go in and get epidural. I'm going to walk. I've slept 3 broken hours. I'm so tired. Hoping this will pick up again especially since Chloe's fever broke.
I hope it doesn't go dark, I haven't been doing any lurking- what's the current status of that emmagk
An update: a really shitty update. I told you all that C was being really clingy. Well I'm rocking her and she lays her head on me- burning up! I check her temp. It's 103.2. So I take her upstairs give her some Advil and a like warm bath. She points to her mouth and says it's hurting real bad. I grab a flashlight- swollen tonsils and red and white spots EVERYWHERE. I call our advice nurse and get connected to a doctor, C has an appointment in the morning at 9:30. A girlfriend is coming to stay the night with us in case we leave (which I'm thinking is a very real possibility) and will take her to the doctor.
Please think of us, I pray it isn't strep throats and that it's only a virus. And also pray for me because these are starting to pick up and getting a little intense!
Ugh sorry about the timing, good luck I'll be thinking of your family
So literally still having contractions that aren't getting more intense but aren't going away and have gotten closer together. I'm having a lot of grossness down below so I know something's going on.
Update on DD- she has for sure double ear infection, doctor also confirmed swollen tonsils and very red throat. Did a throat culture, be back this afternoon. Started antibiotics which will work for both strep and the ear infections. She hasn't ate but is drinking fluids and getting some color back.
I feel like I'm live blogging Chloe's exact birth all over again minus the sick toddler. It was a literal 3 day event. I heard the second time gets more intense quicker but so far,SAME! Either way, I know he's on his way here and I'm trying to just relax and let nature takes its course
I'm sorry. My labor with G was a 3 day event too. microworm and I should've sent more second baby quick labor vibes to you. Hopefully things get moving soon. Glad C is at least doing a bit better.
Just checking in since last night! Omg you've had a rough night/day. Glad dd is on antibiotics and hopefully on the mend! Fx baby boy gets a move in it. Hang in there!
Contractions have gone down to every 20 minutes. The L&D told me stress and exhaustion are probably inhibiting me from progressing. H ltook over last night at 11 and I got a good stretch of sleep. Chloe is still so miserable this morning. She doesn't have strep, apparently it's tonsillitis.
