    LOVE your stance on birthing. I’ve heard so many women say that they are stronger than others for opting out of pain meds. That it’s “harder”. I’ve had an epidural that worked with 1/3 kids. So 2/3 I’ve felt every ounce of discomfort. Wish all natural mamas thought like you!!

    It’s so interesting to hear other people takes on natural labor. Almost everyone in my family has had to be induced and in the hospital during their births because their bodies couldn’t actually naturally do it alone. I think it’s so important to respect other people’s decisions on their birth plan, but I love hearing your ideas so much. Keep killing it as a mom. 🌸

      I had my 6th baby in Nov and it was natural, after attempting 5 times I finally had my natural. My biggest thing is completely relaxing your body from your chest down. I literally let myself float in the tub for most of my labor and the warm water made it totally doable. You gotta follow your gut and whatever feels best for you- speak up and do it! Your comfort will absolutely make your labor easier and faster. Good luck and prayers!!

So I feel good about my chances of having a safe and healthy birth at home if I am left undisturbed!

    I had a natural birth for my first, then I got pregnant 3 months later with twins and had them at 26 weeks and had to have emergency c section. Then for my 3rd pregnancy I tried to do go for a vaginal birth but unfortunately the doctor felt it would be to risky because for my previous c section I was cut higher on my stomach which could make it dangerous to push the baby out. And to add to it, baby number 4 was not coming on his own as quickly as doctors hoped he would. So sadly that didn’t work out but I tried and God gave me an excellent doctor and it worked out the way that kept me and baby safe and alive and I’m extremely grateful!!

      Me too. I had some morphine to get some sleep the night before my daughter was born and the epidural the day of. Induction 'pre-labour' lasted about 40 hours for me were I was borderline active labour for a very long time. Definitely not the pregnancy, labour and birth I was ever expecting for my 1st time. But I made the best choice for me and believe the pain medications were the only reason I had the strength to push her out as quickly as needed when she went into distress at the very end.

      I was feeling like a total failure, because after pushing for 2 and a half hours I had to get a c section. I'm glad I asked my doctor afterwards if I would have been able to push him out and he said not without damaging his shoulder. My boys shoulder was stuck on my pelvic bone. It was not an easy recovery not being able to get up on my own being so sore just having surgery, and trying to hold my baby too with a catheter, IVs and blood transfusion bags. C sections are not the easy way out. No matter how you deliver your baby the only thing that matters is baby and momma are safe and healthy.

    I was always planning for a natural birth. I arrived at the hospital and was ready for this. I prepared myself for months… but then i was in labor for 38 hours… I could handle the pain but I was so tired i felt myself slipping away. The doctors gave me a choice, an epidural to have an opening for the baby cause I just couldnt get to the 10cm. Then it went so fast in 1h the baby came out. I felt everything cause the pain numbing came after the birth 😂 then I was out and could not walk around. It was my first and unfortunatly not everything goes as planned, but I was so proud of myself and felt so blessed. Now honestly I am not afraid to do it all over again if God is willing to bless us with another baby. You are such an inspiration! My regards from Belgium!

    I just had my first son unmedicated at home in January and I had to push for 4 hours after 68 hours in labor...I would love my next to just come in a few minutes of pushing!! 😅😂 Praying blessings over your labor and delivery, Sarah. You're going to be amazing! 🙌

    I planned on a natural birth with my daughter. My ideal birth would’ve been a water birth… But she loved her womb apartment so much she did not want to come out even at 42 weeks. I had to be induced. After 4 days of labor, I asked for epidural- and it failed. I still went on and finally got to pushing for 5 hours. Baby did not descend, so I had to have an urgent cesarean surgery. It was traumatic, but both my daughter and I are healthy! I’m still grieving the loss of my desired birth and processing through what happened. But I’d do it 10 times again for my baby daughter. It amazes me how we are made so strong as women.
    In the end, we just have to leave it all to God and have faith. I’ll be praying for you that God will assist you in every step of your birth!

    Thanks for saying birth is birth. Get sick of the judgement for c-sections. I have a medical issue (bicornuate uterus) means my kids were all breech and if we had any more they would likely be to- people tell me I took easy was out constantly and I wanna punch them in the face. Thanks for saying birth is birth we all superwoman regardless. ❤

    Right there with you with the gallstone pain. It makes pregnancy way more tricky. I had 5 gallbladder episodes in one month and the labor and delivery staff was blaming me even as I’ve been on the appropriate diet. My gallbladder issues is the biggest thing that scares me to be pregnant again along with pelvic problems (but I’m working on therapy for this problem).

    I got the epidural with my first at 9cm. I did a completely pain med free births with my second and third babies. Honestly the pain was Almost unbearable for me and I felt out of control during transition. I’m not sure I can do it again. I would probably consider an epidural if I got pregnant with a 4th baby.

    I figured out what labor pains were sort of like. If you ever had a charlie horse, like in your calf muscle, its literally a charlie horse. IN YOUR UTERUS. Because that entire muscle and surrounding area tightens up uncontrollably during a contraction, just like that muscle in your leg. Only....think about that large area holding that baby.... So yea. A contraction is a massive charlie horse in your uterus. BTW also had a water birth with my second, and am praying you have a peaceful home birth!!! xoxo

    Your stance on epidural is refreshing. When I was expecting my first baby, people felt like telling me how they delivered babies without an epidural... made me feel like getting one would be a failure. Not cool. As it turned out, I got an epidural, but the epidural itself failed and numbed only the left half of my body, despite the anesthesist trying to fix it a couple times. So I’ve had both experiences :)

  • @saltinlight8267
    @saltinlight8267 3 года назад +1

    It is so refreshing to hear someone hold vaginal and cesarean delivery up on the same level. With my first I wanted vaginal delivery so badly. I was in labor for 27 hours and pushed for over an hour and they couldn't figure out why he wouldn't come out. During the pushing his heart rate plummeted along with mine and my blood pressure and they rushed me to emergency cesarean. After, the doctor looked at me and said, "Honey, your pelvis wouldn't allow you to give birth to a golf ball." 😂😂😂 Lucky baby and I were okay and my daughter was just straight cesarean. But what really hurt is a few years after my daughters birth someone actually said to me that because I didn't have a vaginal delivery that I'm not a mother, that I don't love my kids, and that they should be taken from me. This was completely shocking to me that someone could have that mindset. She didn't even know that I medically can't give birth vaginally. People should be sooooo careful about what they say.

      Also also...did NOT want to freak you out with my birth story. You have had successful vaginal deliveries. I never have. So you are A OK and I know you will be through this babe too. I was just reflecting on my comment and like....mmmmmm she doesn't want to hear that in her third trimester😂😂😭🤦🤦🤦

    Thank you for what you said about cesarean birth. I wanted to be completely natural but I was really naiive and wound up induced, horrible back labor, she never dropped and was born emergency cesarean with a big bruise on the back of her head. I wish I had done more classes and researched more and I felt less than for so many years. I feel so much better about it but I hear a lot of women putting down cesareans and sometimes it gets to me.

    I'm not sure if you read your comments or not... I wouldn't have time to lol BUT I always have my kids home when I give birth!! They're welcome to come and go as they please. 4th baby was overnight so they slept through that (it was a little traumatic so it worked) we turn a favorite tv show on when it's TIME to keep the toddler busy. And this time my aunt took them for a few hours while I was laboring but they came home and my oldest got to be in the room when baby was born. It's nice to just keep things super casual and just part of our life lol

  • @sarahb9439

    I also had intense back labour with my baby. I know I felt contractions in my stomach, too, but I don't remember them as much -- I only remember the feeling I got in my back. I remember thinking afterward that if I had only laboured in my belly, labour would have been easy, haha! I later found out (after the birth of my daughter, when I went to see a chiropractor for the first time in my life) that my pelvis was totally unaligned! I'm positive that's what caused my back labour. Next time, I will be seeing a chiro AND a massage therapist throughout my whole pregnancy!

    Yes! C section is not the easy way out. I have had 1 emergency, 1 scheduled and have another one coming in December. My 1st got stuck in my pelvis. I thought I was going to die on the table during the c-section. 2nd one went better but the pain.... so intense... doesn't help that I am allergic to the common pain meds given for c-sections.. 🤦‍♀️ I am terrified for my next one.
