    I'm so glad you and baby were okay. I had preeclampsia with my oldest, but mine was worst before birth, and thankfully went away after she was born. Take care of yourself above all, and we will be waiting for you when you get back.

    I am so sorry you went through this! It sounds like you had quite the journey.
    Thank you for sharing, and for using your platform to heighten awareness! This is a subject that so many women are not aware of.
    IVF is not the only risk factor -- there are a lot of contributing factors, particularly the father, and whether anyone carrying his children have had preeclampsia in the past.
    I had postpartum preeclampsia with both of my boys (although I suspect I had preeclampsia before my first was born -- my symptoms weren't treated then, though). The only reason I am alive is pure luck. I just so happened to be watching Downton Abby for the first time during my postpartum period, and (avoiding spoilers!) one of the characters suffered from preeclampsia. I recognized that I was experiencing the same symptoms. I am very, very lucky to have survived that first round, because it was quite severe -- I was hospitalized for a week and maxed out on meds with lots of organ damage. I caught the second time early enough to not have as severe of an experience, luckily!
    Sending you lots of well wishes for a peaceful and restful time with your newborn. What a cutie!

    • @WaterColorMisfit
      @WaterColorMisfit  6 дней назад

      Wow! That's sounds crazy! I'm glad that I had a doctor who laid it all out for me before so I knew what to look for. I wish I had caught it sooner - but glad I caught it when I did. And yes I wish more people would talk about this. Glad I can bring some eyes to it now!

    I went through similar issues with preeclampsia. I showed up for my final growth scan and checkup a week before my due date and my BP was 250/178. I was induced immediately and I ended up having my son in the next 24hrs. I had to stay in the hospital for an additional two days for constant monitoring. I also had nurses calling me for a couple days after we went home to check with me on my symptoms while on BP meds. I was also checked by my son's pediatrician lol! It was terrifying. My blood pressure put my son under so much stress that the umbilical cord was almost completely occluded, reducing blood/nutrient flow to him and the placenta. If I hadn't been induced one or both of us would have died... It was probably the scariest experience I've ever had.
    I wish someone had told me about the epidural shakes, though. That was just the cherry on top of an absolutely horrifying birth experience. I won't be having any more kids, I can't go through any of that again.

    • @WaterColorMisfit
      @WaterColorMisfit  6 дней назад

      Oh my word yes! The epidural shakes were unreal! I hated them and had absolutely no control over them. UGh they were awful!

    Congrats on the baby! I conceived naturally but she was stubborn so I did have some issues with my c section, including bowel paralysis and a tube up my nose. I will say that I have not been the same physically since then. Curious if you had the flip yet? (If ya know you know, happens after a c section when things inside go back to the right position). A lot of the stuff is scary and un known even when reading everything as a first time mom. That and I think the c section triggered my fibromyalgia, which with back issues has had me not able to work since.
    He is handsome, and don't forget sleep while they are sleeping if you can.

    • @WaterColorMisfit
      @WaterColorMisfit  4 дня назад

      Yep had the flip a couple of weeks ago. Didnt know that's what it was called but yeah nothing was moving right after the c-section and I could even feel my digestion was completely off. Glad that part is at least over! Sorry your fibromyalgia got triggered. Yeah - my EDS has been acting up recently too - but no where near as bad as before. That was wild - I felt like I couldn't walk or do anything! Glad that is over.

    You must have really good insurance. I'm not a medical professional, but I don't know why they didn't put you on BP meds and treat you as an outpatient. I understand pre-eclampsia and BP. No need to come for me.

    • @WaterColorMisfit
      @WaterColorMisfit  4 дня назад

      My blood pressure was actually low before giving birth. Doctors were monitoring it closely. It happened suddenly and unexpectedly. That's why I wanted to share my experience - because it snuck up on me.

  • @michellef1847
    @michellef1847 8 дней назад

    Hormones during pregnancy loosen up ligaments in your body too, preparing for delivery. That probably didn't help. 🤦‍♀️
