Something Was Wrong
S23 Ep9: Bad Marriage

Absolutely. And even looking back, I'm like, the way his hand kept going up in my pelvis and how big my pelvis is, if I had done inversions or anything, we could have gotten him to move. We eventually get in the car and I ride hands and knees, but with my chest to the ground to the hospital. And they have the Doppler and they're breaking out.

I remember them telling me at one point that his neck might break. And then we get there and the OB says, yep, we're going to take you back. I had an emergency cesarean with her son. He was born around 4 a.m., Gina and Caitlin brought him into my hospital room. They got a different room. Well, they brought the entire family, but I was exhausted. I honestly have no recollection of that happening.

I remember it from pictures. That's all. The next morning, around 10, my husband wasn't there. He had gone home to check on the kids, something. Gina and Caitlin come in with the baby and let me know that they're checking out with the baby against medical advice. Because midwives can provide care for babies until six weeks and they didn't feel like they needed to be there. But I was there.

I think that I ended up being able to leave by that night. Maybe I did have to stay. I don't remember. The surrogacy is so blurry to me because I have blocked it out. That is how I survived working with Caitlin. Whenever I look back on that pregnancy, I'm like, wow, that pregnancy wasn't handled properly.

But it all felt like rainbows and sunshine and butterflies because I was getting all of this attention. My care providers were Caitlin and Gina and then their other midwife partner. That's not right. Why would the mother be my care provider? I have my records pulled up, but these are Origins records. Origins did not keep records of when you're in the hospital.

They track what's going on at Origins. That's it. Postpartum care at Origins was a two to three day visit, a two week visit, and then a six week visit. We did a two to three day visit at the birth center and Caitlin did a herbal bath afterwards. Let me tell you about the bath. It contains herbs that are supposed to be healing for the mom.

After giving birth, baby's not supposed to have a bath immediately. But Caitlin used it for a marketing ploy and to use the beauty of the birth center to lure people in to something that it shouldn't have been. 18 months or at least a year later, they still had one more embryo left. I felt like so many eyes were on me and everybody knew there was one embryo left. And I couldn't tell her no.
