Had my appointment on Tuesday baby girl is heads down 6 lbs 7 oz and my midwife said we will most likely start the baby arrival process next tuesday if baby girl doesn't decide to come on her own sooner. I was also talking with my midwife about how I am extremely discouraged because I wanted no pain meds originally for this one, but my pain level has already been through the roof with my BH to the point were I am almost in tears. She said that my pain tolerance my be low due to the stress of my husband's cancer, trying to take care of everyone and everything and not being able to have any down time to focus on me or relax. She actually encouraged me to get the epidural due to the way I'm not feeling as though at this time I can handle a natural non medicated delivery. I was thankful for her telling me that the stress can be a factor in my increased pain and low pain tolerance, because I was starting to feel like a wimp since I was 5 cm with my son before I even went to the hospital. I am sooooo thankful for such an amazing midwife who is compassionate and understands my situation.
I have a low tolerance of pain so I’m screwed either way 😂 but I am going to get through a natural birth no matter what!
Quick question: Are the contractions or pushing the most painful?
I’ve felt contractions with my first and omg. But I didn’t experience the pushing. He was way to tiny.
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...
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
I guess everyone is different with different pain tolerance because my recovery for my c section was a breeze I never filled the medications they gave me and was walking down to the NICU to see my son the next day
So this is my first pregnancy and as thankful as I am for my baby I'm scared to death.. Just of the whole process.. Just getting my blood drawn hurt me (I have a low pain tolerance) and my OB told me she has to check me in two weeks (put her hand in my private).. I literally cannot stop crying. I am so nervous about these next 9 months..
Kudos to you for no epidural. I had to get one! The nurse even recommended it because I was fighting my contractions and she thinks that was prolonging me from dialating like I should of. And now I'm so comfortable and don't feel like my insides are ripping apart. My contractions were bad they started making me cry 😶
