i got a spinal headache when i had my youngest (it was a c-section). when i calle dthe anesthesiologist they told me to first try to drink as much caffine as possible (though i didn't want to b/c i was pumping brest milk) and if that didn't work i would have to come in and they would do a blood patch to help it. well, i definately didn't want to have to back to the hospital so i started drinking a lot of coffee and coke (w/ all the strength i had to lift my head of the pillow) it sucked!!! i'm sorry she's feeling that i know how awful it is!
Congrats on your new grand daughter =)
Your comments about your cousin are very interesting. As of this morning, my daughter is still laying down, with a warm compress on her head, a heating pad on her spine and unable to take the baby to her first doctor's appt. I am going to go with her fiance for the visit, while she rests. I hope this headache and back problems go away. I guess on a good note, she has forgotten about that tear she got, since she is so busy with her head and back.
Thanks to everyone else too on the warm wishes.....
Congrats on your new granddaughter!!!!!
congrats!!! im so fearful of the tearing
congrats!!!!!as far as the spinal leak, wathc her very closely because this happened to my cousin and a few days later she had a major migraine went to the hospital and they found a blockage, turned out to be a hormonal tumor related to pregnancy and bad epeideral.
CONGRATS!!! I am so glad other than the headache that they are both doing well! :)
Oh no!!! That is incredibly awful... but so worth it. It must be hard on you to see your daughter like that. *HUGS*
Thank you everyone for the well wishes. My daughter is finally sleeping with her precious baby on her chest, as she has a terrible spinal headache from the epidural. The dr nicked her and spilled spinal fluid, so the headache is following. They said it should be better in 48 hours - gee, thanks doc.
