    Montrose is a beautiful name -- I had the hardest time trying to think of names for if I had a son, but I did end up having a daughter (her name is Lillia.) When I was pregnant with her, it took a long time to show any sign of going into labor. They told me repeatedly that if I did not start by ~40 weeks, I would be induced. The prospect made me so anxious that I must have willed myself to go into labor, because it happened the morning before I was scheduled. 😅 Woke up with contractions at 5:30 am, and arrived at the hospital at 8:30 at 8cm already. I had time to labor in the room's bathtub, but very suddenly knew that if i stayed in there, that was where the baby would be born -- so I ended up walking across the room and giving birth dripping wet and naked much to the surprise of the medical students I signed off on allowing to watch the birth for educational purposes. 😅 My daughter was born at 10:30am with no issues (though she was also face-up). She was also much smaller than they had predicted. I was very lucky. I am always amazed to hear other peoples' stories.

      I have had 5 kids. All of them naturally, I absolutely refuse to ever have an epidural! Labor is my favorite part of being pregnant. I get to basically show off how easy it is. I don't make any noise during labor and always stay in control. My 4 boys were all born in a bed, my last labor was in water (2020 and I was sad the family couldn't be there) and I had a girl. I never find out gender before birth with any of my kids. Labor is not a horror and it saddens me when others act like it is traumatic. (My first baby was born when I was 18, doctor induced because he had vacation plans. I was on a pitocin drip, needed an episiotomy, and still never screamed or broke any hands.) My biggest baby was my 4th son and he was 8 pounds 9 ounces. Movies and shows give an unrealistic expectation that is is a scary and painful event. All about your mindset!

    Oh love, when you said about the anxiety and epidural being a no-go I felt that! My first baby I worked in the surgery unit as a desk clerk and they had to wheel me down to women's in absolute tears because I was freaking out because I was trying to do all these charts and keep track who was going to what cubicle because it was a super busy day with people having surgeries and I couldn't keep track of my contractions and people coming out of the OR. So by the time I got to women's and they finally got an accurate blood pressure (I kept contracting while they were getting the blood pressure) and decided to keep me, I was just done. So I get to my room, my husband is there, I'm so emotionally spent I'm like sure yeah epidural sounds great - except again terrified of needles. I'm 4 ft 11.5 in, and at this point was 48 inches around, so not only can I not touch the floor with the bed the whole way down, I don't have much in the way of positioning myself, and the anesthesiologist who was doing the epidural was maybe 2 inches taller than me and across the bed to do the epidural. He's getting frustrated cause I can't get my back into the position he needs, I'm now freaking out, my husband offered to pull me back across the bed closer, but the anesthesiologist was like no. This is now a 30 minute process, and he ended up having to open a 2nd epidural kit and he finally told my husband yea pull her back towards him (the anesthesiologist). Night went well, got woken up at 5am so they could break my water (I now know what a stuffed turkey feels like at Thanksgiving), and then spent 3 hours from 10am to 1:13pm actively pushing. Because of the epidural I couldn't feel my contractions, so my sister would look at the monitor and tell me when to push. I went from cute polite little human to intense I will beat the snot out of you for looking at me human. Told my husband to shut up, and then my sister got quiet because she thought she should also not talk and I yelled at her to tell me when to push. Nurses put a bar up and gave me a sheet to pull on with my feet up on the bar, husband said I had the sheet so taut he was waiting for it to shred and every vein on my arms looked like I was roid raging. Get all the way to the end, baby is finally on his way out, delivery doctor (who literally is only there to catch at the end) shows up, tells me 3 more pushes, everyone in the room repeats that, and then he goes that's not what I said and everyone else in the room turns on him and is like yeah, you DID. Then he decided he wants the midwife to play catcher and tells ME to WAIT and I just bellow IM NOT WAITING!!! My sister said he gave him a look that said either you catch or I do and the murder you. Deliver Rowan, they put him on my chest, but I can't enjoy him because now they're touching me down below, I had a 2nd degree tear and I'm fighting them as they are trying to examine the damage. They had to knock my ass out to sew me up! It was well worth it in the end. As super round as I was, Rowan was only a tiny 6 lb 13 oz creature, he's 4 now. We are having another in October and I'm hoping the universe will be kind and make this next one an easier labor process 😂. Enjoy your babies, they grow soooo fast and become sassy preschoolers. I'm sorry you guys have had a rough go with travel and housing, but hopefully one day they can be memories that you can chuckle at. Glad to see you are well now! ❤

    My daughter and I had a stressful labor, I was induced bc she had bad kidneys and a hole in her heart. Had an episiotomy - FUN. She ended up being absolutely fine and healthy with organs on par with proper development.
    About 14 months later, my son came out naturally with 9 hours of walking, a nap and 2 pushes.

    To be honest (speaking from experience) you wouldn't have felt the needle going in from the epidural as the contraction pain is so intense it acts like a natural numbing agent 😂 If you ever have more children, and end up in this sort of pain again, consider the epidural honestly it just helps SO much and this is speaking from a panic disorder sufferer myself.

Montrose is a great name and here in America it brings to mind the great rock group of the same name of the 1970s founded by guitarist Ronnie Montrose and fronted by Sammy Hagar. It’s a very cool name!

    Sometimes children come out differently when they enter a new dimension via the "lady part". I personally didn't start looking pregnant til I was 5 months pregnant. Because of this my son's father actually stopped being apart of our lives and told his friends and family I wasn't pregnant. To this day his father has had no desire to be in our lives despite the positive pregnancy and DNA tests.

    Beautiful name!! Goes so well with Severines name. And Monty is super cute. I also had a horrible birth myself. My baby is a month old today. I had been induced just because he measured big. No other health reasons. Hes my first baby and my induction failed after days in labor. He was fine but i ended up with a csection. Which i really didnt want. I didnt want an induction either. I was really pressured into it and wish i had said no. I want a normal birth experience someday too. My baby ended up a bit bigger at 9 lbs, he had a very big head too so maybe it would have ended in csection either way. Idk.

    Sorry to hear you had another rough birth experience. I was induced for both of mine and just like you, refused epidural. They failed to get a drip in me so why would I trust them near my spine?! Although I never got the natural labour to compare it with I am sure it's far more brutal than it needs to be. I actually set my 2nd one up though cos my 1st was overdue and 9lb 11 - they said at all my appointments she was going to be tiny! Probably only because I was 17 - so I 'arranged' for my 2nd to be a couple of weeks early to avoid her getting too big (she was 8lb 5.5 so good call?). No forceps, no ventouse... but I did get retained membranes which led to a vet-shoulder-deep-in-a-cow scenario that still brings tears to the eyes almost a quarter century later.
    Best wishes to you all xxx

    The level of pain from hormone induction is 100x more painful than non-assisted labour. I got to 10cm with my second on my own, and it was so much nicer, but as soon as you add oxytocin etc = extreme unbearable pain

      I have had 5 kids. All of them naturally, I absolutely refuse to ever have an epidural! Labor is my favorite part of being pregnant. I get to basically show off how easy it is. I don't make any noise during labor and always stay in control. My 4 boys were all born in a bed, my last labor was in water (2020 and I was sad the family couldn't be there) and I had a girl. I never find out gender before birth with any of my kids. Labor is not a horror and it saddens me when others act like it is traumatic. (My first baby was born when I was 18, doctor induced because he had vacation plans. I was on a pitocin drip, needed an episiotomy, and still never screamed or broke any hands.) Movies and shows give an unrealistic expectation that is is a scary and painful event. All about your mindset!

    First off CONGRATULATIONS!! I really do love his name. It's unique and a little gothic.
    My birth story was similar to yours, except I am actually fully diabetic. I didn't not have the epidural because of my panic as well, but I'm not afraid of needles, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get out of bed. I got induced because my daughter had hydronephrosis. Which is liquid in her kidney that shouldn't be there. At 39 weeks I went in. For hours I was like, this is nothing. Then they broke my water. HOLY FUCK. It went from 20 to 180 as the pain scale. I was begging for that needle, but it was to late. I gave birth to a healthy little girl a few hours later. They put her in my arms and I only got a few minutes with her before I started to feel like shit. The doctor called for help and a moment later five nurses were rushing in and out getting things the doctor ordered as needed. Then they started pushing on my stomach to get me to stop bleeding. I am not a violent person, but I bruised the arm of the nurse who was doing it to me because she didn't warn me she was going to do it and she didn't tell me why she was doing it. I almost punched her, the doctor spared her from it when she finally explained that I was bleeding to much. They took the baby and ushered my husband out of the room. More monitors were strapped to me, I spiked a fever. I got oxygen. I was given more vials of medicine through my IV in my hand than I could count. My blood pressure was stroke level. One of the vials they gave me was pain medicine and it made me violently ill. So I was vomiting and bleeding everywhere. It took about an hour and a half for them to stitch me up and get me to stop bleeding. Eventually they got everything under control and then the shivers started. They tossed a headed blanket, turned off all the lights, closed the curtains and let me calm the fuck down. I was vaguely aware when my husband came back and he told me the baby was alright as he ran his fingers through my hair to help me calm down. Six hours and a private room later I got to hold my daughter again and oh boy did I cry.

    I'm glad both of you are ok. Congrats on the new member of the family ☺️. I have been following your content for some time and it really makes me happy see all of this and that you share this little bit of your life with us, like I seriously take your word from time to time and it has helped me so much.
    So I'm a physician, so to say about the difference between what they saw in the scans and when your baby was born, sadly it's somewhat common that it can happen, we can see a very big baby in the scans and on the time of birth get a pretty average percentile baby or in some cases we can see a normal baby in the scans and on the time of birth have to change gears quickly because that baby is so big not even a episiotomy will help.
    Sadly it can be many factors that can affect the measurements, the principal one is that an ultrasound is a study that's operator dependent, meaning that according to the knowledge and schooling of the technician or radiologist it can vary. Also if the machine it's old or hasn't had a good maintenance it can affect the results.
    You also had gestational diabetes, that by it self is a factor that can lead to a big baby, adding that you had a hard time getting your glucose on control even when following all of your doctor's orders. So I think this what made them say " ok, the scans say there is a big baby, the mom has GDM, she is going to have a big baby there is no doubt", but what has me little miffed is that knowing and everything"pointing" to a big baby why in the name of Hades they didn't plan accordingly, like it's marvelous that your baby was smaller and you had a "optimal" delivery, but like you had to suffer so much, making me almost sure that even with the epidural you would have still been in pain and suffering for more de 90 minutes the "I can't do this moment".
    If you decide to have more baby's I hope that you have a better experience, with both momma and baby being healthy and safe.
    Sending a huge hug from Mexico.

But I did want to mention how much I love your baby’s name! Makes me sad I won’t be able to use a newly discovered family name …Atlas.

The amount of relief is BEAUTIFUL!! Like I cried when I realized I was numb. The nurse looked at me terrified and was like... do you feel this one...? Because it was a really big one, and I just just started crying and I was like no I don't 😭😭😭 then my husband gave a huge sigh of relief and then my body finished dialating in 30 mins, then pushed for 22 and my girl was here! It just makes it so You can relax and breathe and lay there and your body does the rest honey. Then all you worry about is pushing, but the contractions are gone. I highly fuckin recommend.

    As a diabetic I know exactly how it felt being pregnant and diabetic. I had to test my blood sugar 7 times a day and had to inject insulin 4 times a day. I was also induced with my daughter (whom you have met with me, she still talks about it lol). I was told she would be 8-8 and a half pounds but she was only 7 pounds 5 ounces. My girl was spine against mine for the first hour and it was horrible, I couldn't even think to ask for pain relief so I did it all without pain relief. She came out with her hand on her head as well so it was a rather nasty tear that took them awhile to stitch up. They told me the next time they were shocked I wasn't taken to the or because I was close to needing a blood transfusion and meanwhile I was just laying there smiling at my daughter, none the wiser lol. I adore the name and the reason behind it. My kids names have meaning behind them as well which makes me love their names even more.

    I'm kind of torn with wanting children. In a way I wish I did have one, but when I really think hard about it, I'm glad I don't. I have too many spinal injuries and can't stop certain meds that would surely hurt the baby. Plus, how you feel about getting spinal injections is how I feel about ANYTHING gynecological. It's weird but can't help it.
    Anyway, I hope all gets better with your new addition. Congratulations on another little peanut!!

    I've done induced, C-section and a "suction cup", and both my babies wanted to come out "sunny side up" and head in a weird tilt, the other one came out facepalming.
    Induced labour is f*cking horrible. I much preferred the pain of a natural birth, even though that didn't go quite smooth either. If I have to "prefer" any pain 😬
    My first kid was in trouble and they tried to induce with a "ballong". Worst pain ever - the idea is to mechanically force the cervix open. Then medically/hormones, went nowhere, got manhandled in variety of ways, went into uncontrollable shakes from pain, baby got even more in trouble and they decided on an emergency C-section. She had breathed in her own poop and the water stuff. While clearing her airways they pushed air with too much force on her lungs and one them ruptured 😳😳😳 But she was a really feisty little thing and got out of ICU after about 8 hours.
    Second time, I went to hospital by public transport and by walking, baby was coming out quite quickly - I went from 1cm to 10cm (half inch to fully opened 4inch) in less than an hour. But I took a couple of epidurals mostly because I have emetophobia and the pain made me nauseous. The epidurals made the labour stop, so didn't have more. The whole thing still didn't take long, but I just didn't have the strength. I had a flu and after the baby came out we found out it wasn't positioned right and came out head and hand first, so that's why it was kinda stuck, I guess. They pulled it out with a suction cup and I got torn pretty badly.
    But the relief when the baby comes out is SOOOO good. Didn't feel a thing or care after that. My then husband got a bit traumatized by the amount of blood that poured out of me.
    Had pregnancy diabetes with both but luckily diet and eating schedule was all I needed.
    Becoming a parent is wild. The love you feel for those little dudes is unimaginable before you experience it.
    But being a parent can be really hard too.
    Mine are already 8 and 12, but I still regularly look at them amazed by the fact these awesome people came out from my body. Like, I made these!?

    @bohemiansusan2897 Год назад +1

    As a former midwife, I can say that ultrasounds aren't too accurate after 6.5 months. Best way is the old fashioned palapating of the abdomen.
    My last labor was 5 days. My baby was diagnosed as dead in utero and no movement. Just like the other times I had stillborn babies. We expected this because fetal my drops was diagnosed. My reading if the scans matched everyone at hospital staff. So we decided to go with a home birth to lessen the trauma and to just be able to hold our dead baby and say goodbye before calling the mortician.
    My labor was like all the other stillbirth labors, baby not working to get out. My water broke at 10 cm and fresh meconium came out, which doesn't happen with a dead baby. Still no heartbeat. She came out and the midwife suctioned for ages and a very weak cry happened. Born at 36 weeks and 9lbs 10 oz.and 17 inches long. A 17 inch long baby usually weighs 3 lbs. Nothing wrong and she was the baby that I was so happy to see.
    She is now 22 and a mother who will go medical school year after next. She was my funnest child who loved matching mother daughter goth outfits. We had a formal Grandma, mother and grandson portrait done with the three of us wearing matching goth outfits.

    Congratulations! Montrose is a lovely name, apt after the time you spent in Scotland, where I live BTW. I too was induced. Horrible. Labour doesn't come on gradually but boom! You're right in the thick of it screaming bloody murder over what I read later in my notes was "light to medium" Labour pains. Light to medium my arse. After 8 hours with gas and air they prised the device I was determined not to be parted from, out of my hand and rolled me into surgery for a c-section. It definitely was all a small price to pay for my beautiful wee Alistair though. Now a not so wee, bearded 18 year old. That day, and the pain is still so vivid in my memory, but I would still somehow choose to relive it if I had the chance. He definitely smelled better and made less mess then.
    Anywho, welcome to the world wee Monty!

    I had no clue I was in labor, even though my water had broke because I could not feel my contractions. I don't just mean they weren't painful, I mean I could not feel them. My husband took me to hospital anyway (which is a funny side story i would be happy to tell) and the scheduled C section I was supposed to have 5 days from then was promptly turned into an immediate emergency C section. Which went test book, and we got our surprise daughter because we didn't know the baby's gender. Then in the recovery room I started to hemorrhage and needed to have an emergency surgery, a code blue was sounded throughout the hospital and in a matter of seconds a dozen Dr's and nurses were all around me and several of them had to pin me down because there wasn't time to give me any pain relief. (Plus I am allergic to opioid and because I was hemorrhaging, could not be given blood thinners) I felt every single thing and couldn't get a deep enough breath to scream but that didn't stop me from trying, or begging them to stop. Afterwards I had to have something in my uterus to keep it from collapsing and 2 blood transfusions. When I was finally taken to my room many hours later (hadn't slept in almost 48 hours at this point) they made me move myself from the gurney to the bed which was excruciating. Then when they lowered the bed it caught on the edge of the crib which had been moved too closed and bounced me up in the air. This was so painful I went into shock and started coding. A few hours later I was finally able to receive my first does of pain medication and a day later it finally started working. That night I was made to stand up by the night nurses who felt i did not need any sleep and i popped a suture, I needed 2 more blood transfusions in the hospital because my body wasn't producing red blood cells on its own. After 7 days total I was able to go home. I would be happy to share more to anyone who has questions.

    I know the feeling of the gestational diabetes. Hated the diet but I lost weight during my pregnancy. But now I'm stuck with diabetes sadly. And of course my doctor wanted me to have an induced labor and C-section. We were shooting for natural birth but my doctor could not feel him at all. Turns out after he was taken out he had his umbilical cord keeping him from coming down. And my son wasnt big either hes 7 lbs exactly!

    I'm so glad you are all healthy and doing well! Birth is so indescribably difficult and has definitely put me off ever having another 😂 well done you!!! I hope your kiddos have a lifetime of happiness and love 🖤💜
