So I have my baby Monday night!! YAY.. now let me tell you this.. I had an epidural so they hook you up with two leads for them to monitor you heart.. well I was telling my nurse how I get heart skips and palps and she was like oh look an inverted t wave.. I'm like WHAT?!?!? what the hell does that mean? She's like I don't know I'm not a cardiologist... so of course I freak.. then the dr said it was prolly put on wrong or showed up from me moving or itching!!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!

Ya! I was a pain in the ass with my two births I signed the admittance papers while pushing each time since I refused to let them moniter me or even check me. I just took some herbal tea that Cherokees took ( my grandma has Cherokee in her ) and popped those babies out! I would've freaked about the t-wave or whatever but hey your body was working hard and u got through it and it was probably done esphogile or however u spell it spasm from the nausea and stuff???!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!

Tricia! What did you have a girl or a boy. Name???
Congratulations and I am happy you got through it. Do NOT worry about that inverted T wave. Those machines have errors all the time. Mine said something like that too once and my doctor told me that if you are at all anxious and your heartrate is elevated the machine will calculate incorrectly.
Focus on that sweet baby! Has your heart settled down yet now that you have had it?

Digital cardiography has less than a 40% accuracy rate. Nurses generally do not know how to read cardiograms, either. SO worry not, and congrats on the baby, Tricia.

I am not sure that matters, it may have just been the skip..... Obviously she didn't worry to much either
Congrats on your baby boy!!!! So happy for you!
