[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had emergency, not planned or unplanned due to rupture.

One minute they were looking at the monitor the next I was waking up after my c/s.

They knocked me out via IV, intubated and cut.  It took all of a few second and happened in the labor room not OR.

If you had an "emergency c/s" in OR or with a spinal it was an unplanned one.[/quote]

So happy you and the baby survived. This is why I want to give birth in a hospital.[/quote]

if caught in a hospital high chance of surviving. I talked to my dr all about it yesterday.  They know how to quikcly handle these things.[/quote]

So glad you and baby are ok pp. my mom was a L&D nurse, and she said the quickest she’d seen a mother go into distress to having baby out was under a minute. She said no epi, and they cut her navel to pubic bone right there in the labor room. It really traumatized me into almost not having kids. She said this mother had had many stillbirths, and she was just so happy to have a live baby. Shock must’ve kept her going. I would never do a honebirtj because of this. Too much to lose. [/quote]

its rare for this to happen right? About to give birth soon and this is freaking me out! omg

The is the PP with the rupture -- sorry, didn't mean to freak people out.  Baby and I were fine except for my PTSD which was nothing compared to my DH's PTSD.  It was a spontaneous rupture of my third pregnancy. I was not induced but I did go from zero to 60 with contractions.  We went straight to the hospital when they started since I thought I was dying.  They didn't triage me since it was my 3rd and I went straight to labor room. It happened about 25 minutes after arrival.  I did end up with large vertical scar and a hysterectomy.  VERY very rare occurrence but have undying love for Georgetown L&D.  The nurses were on top of it, the resident was on top of it, etc.  I thought the baby may be in distress by the way they were watching the monitor, they said: let's go, and then I woke up after it all.  They may have said something to me but I don't remember it.[/quote]
