Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

Leila N. 26 y.o, G2P2, delivered baby girl “ Hannah Paula”at 01:43am, a small baby, , apgar score 8/9, 250cc, with hemoglobin of 9. delivered by LP, ZG, AT, with patient’s mom. # 1637

Liela came in the clinic fully and the BOW was already ruptured clear. The baby was out after 13 minutes. The baby was given free-flow oxygen due to cyanosis but the color pinked up after few seconds. I was very fast birth with no complications. She has a 1st degree laceration that needed no suturing. It was good she did not hemorrhage considering she was very anemic. She just lost a very minimum amount of blood at birth.
It was a very exciting birth. Liela has a twin sister that I got to see. They really looked alike. After few months we visited them at their house and Leila cut my hair. It was fun.
1st stage = 3 hr 35 min

Carol N, 24 y.o, G1P1, delivered baby boy “John Rodel” at 02:48p, apgar score 9/10, 200 cc EBL, long pushing with thick meconium stain delivered by LP, JJ, AT. # 1629

This is my first birth handle. I was very excited but at the same time I was kind of a little bit scared. I was so thankful that the birth team was very supportive of me. The patient was pushing for a long time and did all the position possible to help the baby to come out. AT did push up the cervical lip. She managed it and I took over when the baby’s head was already almost crowing. Finally the baby was out with thick meconium stain and was suctioned with suction machine. The placenta was out after 7 minutes. She had a 2nd degree laceration that AT and I sutured. It was a great birth although it was a hard one.
