!!!!LABOR STORY!!!!
Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger. They came and went, but felt stronger with each hour. Didn't sleep that whole night! I called the midwife at my hospital and told her I lost it and was having really bad cramping and she told me I was fine and was prob just having BH contractions.
The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-15 mins, but the new City Target had opened across the st from my MiL house in Fenway, (go Red Sox! ⚾️) and I had to coupon (it is a big coupon week!) so, I went to Target and couponed, hurled over in pain every 10 minutes, coupons in hand 😂😂😢
Went home, contractions were really intense and came every 3-4mins, so around 3am I called the hospital again and said I'm having really bad pains, and I can barely walk. They take my breath away and I think I'm in labor. Again, she said I would be screaming and unable to be so "chatty" if I was in labor, and to stay home and go to sleep. Obviously I couldn't sleep with these killer contractions every 2-3 mins now!
Monday morning, July 27 contractions were now every 1-2 minutes, intense like someone was rilling out my insides, I tried rocking on the glider in the nursery, tried soaking in the bathtub, but I was in tears from the pain and from lack of sleep for two nights now, so I told hubby if these aren't labor pains I'm not waiting until I'm actually in labor. Let's to go the hospital and get the Epidural (my plan was to go natural) and he's like ok let's go.
Arrived at the hospital around 10:15, got admitted, sat around moaning while the nurses told me relax, you'll catch your breath, we will get you a room in a minute. Meanwhile I'm in a wheelchair doubled over barely able to breathe. I thought I was going to pass out from the pain!
Got into a room, they listened to baby's heartbeat, and midwife came in to check for dilation. "Oh my god I don't even feel much cervix. You're 9cm dilated honey let's go push!" I almost passed out at that point! I told her I can't do this it hurts soooo bad. But we got into a room, I pushed for the longest ten minutes of my life and out he came!
I tore and got stitches, but not from end to end thank god. Still sore and uterus is cramping but everything else is going well. Breastfeeding is so hard! We will get there though! Third night of no sleep so don't mind the bags under my eyes hahaha
And yes I am going to hunt down that darn midwife who told me to stay at home cuz I was fine and not in labor! Smh I had a CVS coupon trip planned for yesterday, but I'll take Ezra any day! So glad I pulled through with my plan though. It feels so empowering! Not saying next time I'd do it again 😂😂😂

I mean who wouldn't be surprised I don't know what that lady had in her ignorant mind seriously @tracynangel
@lovegod89, lol tell me about it! I guess the midwife who delivered my baby was in shock and told all the other midwives that I was 9 cm dilated when I arrived to the hospital then had to wait in the waiting room for a room to be available! Smh
@lovegod89, lol I have no idea I didn't want her fired just more aware that women have varying levels of pain thresholds to avoid labor complications that's all! Smh
Lol OMG did she got fired? Or did anything happen to her because what she did was speechless she actually risk your life and the baby @tracynangel
@lovegod89, like seriously! I guess she get tons of moms who make it to 4 cm and is screaming bloody murder lol
Omg that's crazy what was wrong with this lady, she really needs to get fired good thing you made it to the hospital in time, glad to hear you both are ok, what a crazy experience 😱 @tracynangel
wow. 3 days in labour! you poor thing. what a horrible lady
@babygirl10-11, girlllll don't you see the bags under my eyes?!! Lol
well u look great for just having a baby lol i looked a hot mess
@theredheadchic, girlllll no pain is likes or pain hahaha and I took it with all its might! Was prob dilated to a 5 when I was in target couponing hahaha I still can't believe it @cp
Omg, this story has freaked me out! I'm soooo scared! 😖🙈 & damn that lady for telling u to go to sleep ur not in labor! 😠
Can you believe I was couponing in labor?! @schevanya
congrats girl, wish I could visit, I was gonna msg u on Monday asking if u wanted to get lunch or something haha
@pregolove2014, I agree! I would do it again for him
We both ended up delivering naturally and I also felt like I was going to pass out from the pain but all worth it .
@tracynangel, thanks for sharing! I'm glad you headed to the hospital when you did. Happy to hear both of you did well!
your story is kind of like mine except I didn't call the hospital because my water broke at my mom's house the day I was suppose to be induced
Everyone is different I think but yes I couldn't handle the pain at the end anymore hahaha I was ready to crack
@brightsunsett, I totally didn't believe it hahaha but remember I supposedly wasn't in labor?! @livd15 I wouldn't say tolerable hahaha a few hours before pushing was hell! That's what made me think I can't do natural but it actually wasn't that bad now that I know it was labor
omg yiu don't even know. I told you you were gonna have ezra before I had clementine
@brightsunsett, hahaha I bet you're relieved
I'm at the dr currently to see if there is any changes in my cervix but other than that 2 more fkn days!!!
@sammyjo4life, definitely! @brightsunsett too much huh?!
@tracynangel lol i guess we need to start listening to each other
@karnawest, 😍😂😂 was getting close there for sure!
@sammyjo4life, I know! So many mommas did! Ugh well now I know!
@tracynangel That is an amazing story! I would have smacked the hell out of that midwife! I would definitely be calling in a complaint because on top of giving you bad advice she was rude! I thought for sure you where gonna have that baby in the middle of Target!
@firstbaby_girl, I know thank god! But imagine if I didn't go in?! Ugh don't wanna think about it! Should've listened to you!
@babyhawkins2015, thanks mama! You next! Hahahaha
I'd give her a bad report for her telling you stupid stuff. good thing is yous made it in and now have your handsome little guy.
@tracynangel, - Rock star!!! You both look great!!
@firstbaby_girl, you were telling me I was in labor! I only trusted her because I didn't wanna go in and get sent home! I should've listened to the preggies and gone in anyway cuz I felt like I was dying!!! @courtney_boyea even said people tolerate pain differently and don't necessarily scream ugh if I ended up delivering him at home and there were complications with him or me (my uterus wasn't getting harder so they had to do some stuff to stop the bleeding) that would've been all her freaking fault! If I wanted a home birth I would've had that in my plan lady!
I would have smacked that midwife. not every woman in labor is screaming and yelling from contractions. always trust your instincts mama! you did great!
@paisleysmama0216, @bryawna13 thank you so much! 😍❤️😘
@andersongirl, thank you! It's unreal! I still feel pregnant hahaha @babygirl10-11 I should've listened to all my preggies when they were telling me it sounded like I was in labor! They broke it cuz it was already bulging out
Awe that is amazing girl!!!! So happy for you!! He is beautiful!:)
I can't believe that had u waiting and u called first .. my ass showed up at there door with my water leaking all over their floor lol they put me right into a room
Congrats again! He's beautiful!! So how does it feel to be a mom?? ❤️ #BestFeelingEver #NothingCompares @tracynangel
@babygirl10-11, lol right?! Smh @danamarie I can't either lol I should've had him there then maybe I would've gotten a gift basket lol
I still can't believe you went couponing!! Congrats girl 💙
wow girl .. that's a story to tell your baby boy like I was in full labor at target shopping lol... and that midwife needs help..... but congrats :)

@threekings101415, 😍😘 @uhmandaxconrad92 😘 thank you! @aliya0915 I would've had him in the tub! Smh she's in trouble! I even told her I had a high tolerance for pain! She's like oh that has nothing to do with labor
I would hunt her down too! Lol! Great job! 💙
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...
I even tried telling her that i was still working for three years with gallbladder completely filled to the brim with gallstones and that pain was honestly comparable to labor! And she was like trust me labor is unlike anything else @lovegod89 I just hope she readjusts her response to the next mom in distress!
