Kara's Story

I got pg 4 months before my wedding it was sorta a accident but a very welcome one. Due Mar. 24 she arrived Mar.21.. My pregnancy was pretty good up untill the 7 mo. I had very little sickness and gained only 60 pounds (lol). However I did quit smoking so I was major pigging out.. Ok so let the 7month begin. Couldn't sleep in the bed anymore as I killed my side so on the couch I slept, I had major swelling and couldn't fit into any of my shoes'. Had to finish work 2 months early due to mild toxima(sp) Had to stay in Hospital at 9mo. for 2 day observation due to high blood pressure... They decided to induce me on the 20th as I was in the hospital and had high blood pressure. It didn't work on the 20th so They tried again ont the 21st. might I add that after the first induction didn't work and I hadn't eaten all day they said I could eat something light, I oppted to eat a half chicken and french fries (lol). It worked on the 21st being on the drip and having my water broke at 7am the contrations started at10am had laughting gas at 11am demerol at 1pm and eppie at 3pm pushed for 3hrs and she came out with the help of forceps wieghing 8lbs and 130z (ouch).. We fel, deeply, madley in love with her. Kaylan is 18mo. old and we are ready for our second. Actually after writing all that that and remembering the pain I might have to think long and hard about that one (lol). Kara
