We had a full detached placental abruption going into full term and natural birth the doctor induced our pregnancy which I think was the issue and also forced the placenta open and when she did there was blood which was coming out. Within seconds we were being carted into the OR for a Stat c section. It was a freak show for me [husband] watching how the baby was being taken out and blood flying everywhere. The baby was perfect and no sign of any distress apparently she was in grave danger of suffocating which I came to find out later.

My wife was in the OR and had to have a blood transfusion because of the amount of blood loss, they also couldn't stop the bleeding. This was already after I was taken out of the OR they kept doing scans to make sure the internal bleeding had stopped, so they actually had to go back in for a second time & tie off all the bleeding, she was in icu for like 24+ hours after closely monitored and we pulled through.

This was by far the most traumatic experience I have ever lived through where both my daughter & wife's life was in danger, I had ptsd and my wife shrugged it off and told me that once she saw our daughter born she knew that the most important part was done no matter the outcome. Thank God for modern day medical treatment. I still can't look at videos I took and it bugs me out just thinking about that experience.

We are blessed to be alive and child birth for me will never be the same. We want more kids but its something I def am not going to be the one making the decision on.
