OMG! that was a nightmare! She was not fully dilated and her water broke and I was down to mere minutes to get him out before he drowned. Her cervix was so small and he was much bigger. Not to mention his feet were curled back I managed to get one foot by a miracle. She was sooooo tight in there. I got the foot and had to pull in the opposite direction with each contraction. He FINALLY came out and was alive, all I could do was cry. Thank goodness they are both ok! There was only one and after that ordeal I am kinda glad! Thanks to you all for taking this crazy journey with me! AND now I present the man of the hour!

I've been following your journey and let me say - CONGRATS!

Just for future reference - when the water breaks the baby is in no danger of drowning. The baby is okay until the umbilical cord breaks and that 'usually' doesn't happen until the birth is complete. If the baby is breech then you have a different story because then the cord usually breaks while the babys head is still nside the doe. I've even had babies born completely enclosed within their fluid-filled amniotic sac and as long as the umbilical cord was unbroken they came out of their water bubble just fine.

Corecting a feet turned back dystocia can be tough. You did GREAT getting a foot forward! That can be a tricky position, especially in a single baby which can be larger than multiples.

Pat yourself (and your doe) on the back for a job well done! He's a cutie!

I was told we havr 20-30 minutes after pushing or water breaking to get him out or he would drown. That lit a flame under me but good to know!! Thank you and thanks to everyone on this forum for their advise and help through everything. It was hard but well worth it. Thanks again!!! Now it's time for a shower and bed! Goodnight all
