Well Stella is here after much anticipation and quite the lengthy labor. SHort version: Labored 27 hours w/ Pitocin no drugs. Heart rate fell, ended up with an emergency Csection

Pitocin is so evil. That's what happened to me with my first pregnancy. As soon as I was given Pitocin to speed things up, my daughter's heart-rate steadily dropped until they decided to get her out via c-section! I'm so sorry that you ended up needing a section, but I'm also happy because she came safely and she's such a beautiful baby girl! Congratulations! I hope that you are not feeling too terrible post-surgery?!
Pitocin is the devil. I will never let myself be induced again. I'm actually doing really well surgery wise. I'm getting around pretty normaly, the worst part is the gas pains in my belly. the top half of my stomach still looks pregnant! How you hanging in there?
I remember the hardest part of having my section was getting rid of the belly. I still have a slight overhang when I'm not pregnant above the incision scar, even when I lose a lot of weight. Are you nursing Stella? That will suck you back in place much quicker!
I'm hanging in here and hanging on, if only by a thread, mentally. I really want baby to come out and I'm getting REALLY impatient!
