So when she said anterior lip and there's a little bit of cervix left, it didn't register in my head. My cervix is not fully dilated yet. So I just kept pushing. But also, why didn't she as the medical professional in that circumstance say, hey, wait, you're not fully dilated. Don't push. They never explicitly told me not to push.

They never told me the risks of pushing on an undilated cervix ever. I would have absolutely listened to them had they said that because I'm very risk averse. Elizabeth came in after Ashlyn checked me. She gave me this homeopathic medicine, like the pellets that they put under your tongue and said it was supposed to melt the rest of my cervix. And of course, I'm like, I don't know what that means.

I don't know what this is, but give me anything that's going to help me. that did not have an effect. I was trying to take sips of water. I remember my husband had like fruit snacks and he kept trying to give them to me because he's like, you need calories. I literally had nothing in my system. No IV, nothing.

They tried doing, I don't even know what it's called, but how they shake your hips or something. And they have all those different techniques and we were trying those things. Then at 23.16, so 11.15, so 45 minutes of being on the bed, laboring, pushing, she did break my water at that point, it looks like, because she notes rupture of membranes.

I had been pushing for so long and in so much pain, I was like, I can't do this much longer, so let's get things rolling. So I agree to rupture of membranes. It was midwife Ashlyn that broke my water. The comment that they added later on was, So I guess that's a good thing.

I think from my understanding, that means that the baby was reacting to them pushing on me or doing whatever they were doing to make sure that he was okay after they ruptured my membranes. Ashlyn noted meconium status to assistant to chart. So per the midwife's observation, I had thin meconium in my water at 1115. They did not notify me of this.

My husband also doesn't recall like hearing her say that to the student. And I will note that having been in the NICU, I was fully aware of what meconium in water meant. So had I heard that, I would have transferred at that point. But I was kept in the dark.

I mean, they were pretty regular. I continued pushing at that point. Ashlyn's at the bedside. I moved back to the tub.
