yes ! in one part of the movie i was amazed because a woman wasn't "progressing" fast enough they put her on pitocin, then when they felt like she was progressing fast enough they gave her a c-section, she was sge was only there like 10-12 hours, when really your body will progress just at its own time, then at one point they had the whole ER on pitocin lol the midwifes say its because OBGyns want to get you in & out of the hospital@momof1and1ontheway

Thank you! I've been looking for labor tips. @mommytoaz

of*

you should watch the documentary The Business if Birthing, it really puts alot of things in perspective, im glad i watched it before i went into labor becuse now i have a better understanding on my options during labor @momof1and1ontheway

I was thinking about a midwife next time as well! Yes I do, I'm watching Netflix right now lol @mommytoaz

do you have Netflix @momof1and1ontheway

i totally agree with you, that's just soo crazy they'd do that smh, next child i have will definitely be a midwife

I'm going to call and complain. Like I have a hard time wiping my ass let alone swabbing it correctly. Lol id rather have some one do it and be uncomfortable and know that it is being done correctly rather than me do it alone. @mommytoaz

oh helllll no, they're fishy, i would soooo complain, i don't wanna scare you or anything but thats a serious test and to be on the safe side id ask for it again, i mean im sure it was self explanatory but like we're pregnant with big ol bellies, can they really count on a PATIENT to do that correctly, hell its hard for me to reach all my lady parts some days ! lol but really, the doctor probably told the nurse to do it, but she figured you could yourself smh ! @momof1and1ontheway

The nurse walked me in the bathroom then the doctor came and seen me after so I guess both? I just couldn't believe it. I could hardly reach and I was freaking out cuz I had no idea what I was doing. @mommytoaz

i would ask to be retested because there's a possibility you did.it wrong which can lead to inaccurate results, & complain like tf 💁 it's their job ! was it your doctor or like a nurse practitioner? @momof1and1ontheway

I'm just concerned I did it wrong.

Nah, everyone I know and have heard of getting it they do it for you. They did it for me. It's kind of awkward when they do it, but better than you doing. I really feel like that isn't something a patient should be doing.

@mdomke22,

@their.bomb.ass.mom, I thought it was normal procedure. Now I feel like I should complain! @me omke22 it was hard! Being this far along trying to do that shit by yourself standing up!

omg! wow lol I can't believe they made you do it yourself!

Hm, I would have told her too. 😂😂😂 that's not your job.

I know! @their.bomb.ass.mom @kaylareese26 I thought it was weird. Like she took me in the bathroom and said here a picture of what you do. I'm like "okay???" And I have this big belly and can hardly reach down there

I have never heard of that before in my life, why would they make you do it when they should 🤔

What? I've never heard of anyone doing it themselves. weirdddd. 😂
