Gestational Hypertension, Hospital Induction, and Less Than 2 Minutes of Pushing
Payton’s 18-hour induction hospital birth was completely different than she planned for her entire pregnancy. After battling with gestational hypertension during her last trimester, Payton feared for her ability to achieve an unmedicated birth when a spike in blood pressure caused her to be induced at 38+5. Payton’s daughter was posterior her entire labor & although she had help from some IV medication, she went on to birth her daughter without an epidural & less than 2 minutes of pushing.
