Hi, This is my first post! I'm hoping to hear other people have had the same experience....
Giving birth to my son was difficult. He was discovered to be back to back at the very last minute so I needed to be turned with forceps. All in all I had an epidural, huge episiotomy and spinal block. I don't know if this contributed to my behaviour after the birth. Basically over the next 2 days I felt really spaced out and my vision was very blurred I had problems with speech and couldn't remember the ends of my sentences. I also hid in the toilet and called my sister telling her I was having a stroke but refused to tell the nurses although I have no recollection of this call...just that my sister told me about it later. I'm now pregnant with no 2 and am weighing up my options. I was considering a section but am worried the epidural will cause this again....has anyone had a similar experience / can attribute their weird behaviour to any one thing? Thank you!
