Urgent Renae's Early Labor Update: Prayers for a Smooth C-Section & Tumor Removal

[pcchefjane]

She posted at 2:45 yesterday on FB that she was in early labor! Praying all goes wsll. She has to have a C-section and they will remove a tumor on her ovary at the same time.

Thoughts and prayers coming her way!

 

[StacieB]

Prayers on the way!

 

[baychef]

Wow, keep us posted. We will be thinking of her.

 

[etteluap70PC]

Yes please keep us posted! Fingers crossed!

How early is "early?"

 

[NooraK]

She was down to single digits the other day. I think by early labor she meant more pre-labor than being early per se.

She was down to single digits the other day. I think by early labor she meant more pre-labor than being early per se.

Actually, I think she meant that she was going into labor before her scheduled C-section date.

She was at 8 days and counting 'til the C-section yesterday when she posted she was in labor.

 

[etteluap70PC]

well good... 8 days is not to terribly early. Hoping all is well!

 

[Dina Atnip]

Sending prayers will make sure she and the baby stays in my prayers.

 

[pcchefjane]

She was very concerned about complications if she went into labor before her "C-section date". She said it could cause complications. A male friend of their family posted about an hour ago on FB that she has not had the baby yet. Not sure why they are not doing the C-section.

Is this like the saying...all good things come to those who wait? But did they mean labor too???? So glad Mama and baby are fine. Thanks for keeping us posted!

Emily Grace was born March 1st at 5M 8lbs 1/2oz. 21" long

Just thought I would "pop" in and say that everything is great. Labor was HORRIBLE to say the least. I was to have a c-section on the 9th and was worried that I would go into labor early. The hospital that I had to go to is about 1 1/2 hours away from here. So when my water broke the took me by ambulance. When we arrived the doctor thought because the baby's head had come down that I would be able to deliver natural. Turns out NO!! I went through "hard" labor for 3 hours, every time I would push baby would come down then ease back up. Turns out she was to big and the tumor was in the way as well. I never thought is was possible to go through so much pain and survive.

But now I can say that I did natural labor and a c-section in one.LOL!!!! She is beautiful and the most wonderful baby in the world. I couldn't love her anymore if I tried. I will try to post some photos soon. Thanks for all the well wishes, and I couldn't believe how everyone kept up on FB.

 

[pamperedbybarbara]

Congratulations!!!! Sounds like Emily Grace was keeping with the tradional saying "In like a lion..." for March...considering that she arrived on March 1st!!!! Enjoy her!!!!!!! (But I bet you are doing that already!)

 

[Intrepid_Chef]

Congrats to you and yours!Here, I was afraid you were going to post her size in kilograms and centimeters!

 

[esavvymom]

FYI...saw the photos on your Photo Album here on CS...she's adorable. Daddy looks pretty happy too.

 

[Gina M]

Congrats Rennea!

Now for something completely off-topic.

Forever now, I've been trying to figure out your avatar pic. What are you holding? Everytime I look at it, a quick glance makes it look like you're holding some sort of machine gun. While that would be cool, I'm sure it's something else......
