I had always wanted to be
a mom and so after getting married, we immediately started trying to
get pregnant. It didn't happen easy for us and we had to have
fertility treatment which included fertility pills and an intra
uterine insemination. After a year of trying we were finally
pregnant and I was thrilled. At my 3 month ultrasound we discovered
that
I had a low lying placenta but was told that this was common and should correct
itself. It never did and when I was 31 weeks pregnant I woke up and
started hemorrhaging. I had a partial placental abruption. My husband
rushed me to the hospital where we thought we were going to have to
have a c-section. Luckily though the bleeding slowed down and I was put
on hospital bed-rest and given steroid injections for the baby's lungs.
It was discovered that
I had severe pre-eclampsia, and pregnancy induced hypertension and
was very near death. An emergency C-Section was done my
beautiful but small son was born weighing 3lbs 4oz. I didn't
get to see him for 2 days and it was so heartbreaking! He ended up
spending 6 weeks in the NICU but is now a very healthy and active 20
month old!!!
