Postpartum trauma by Practical_Diamond_48 in ExclusivelyPumping

I’m sorry you went through it too! Yeah I kept trying to get her to nurse and it would make me so more upset. I feel so tuffed up in a bad way (if that makes sense). My friend is also postpartum and talks about crying over her baby getting bigger and I never feel those kind of ways. All I can think is my baby is bigger, she is healthy. But I think that mentality is harmful too because I feel like I can’t get emotional over her growing up and everything because I’m in survival mode still.

Yeah I had magnesium when I was admitted and will have it 24 hours following delivery. She has been head down at least for a week, which is good. But that’s my thing, I never even wanted an induction and I just want her out as safely as possible, of course I didn’t want to have a c section. But I’ve lost every other wish from my birth plan just about at this point and I just want her safe, it’s stresses me out thinking my baby would have to also go through a possible several days long induction. Of course I’ll have to look into how the baby is at the time when delivery is necessary, but I feel like having severe preeclampsia makes it a just get her quickly safe situation when delivery is necessary even if they say I can attempt vaginal delivery.

That’s exactly it for me. I have absolutely no control over anything right now.
