And @fabledturtle, you're truly and inspiration, what you endure just show all the up coming mommas that anything is possible especially when it comes to the love of your child! Just amazing.

So excited you've experience both all you mothers are so brave... and inspiring. But my experience has left me fearing of ever having another baby... just so scary at times but all of worth it. Thank you ladies for sharing your stories they are so amazing and full of courage and strength. Keep up the great work and happy early Mother's Day to you all hope you have a blessed one!

I have an autoimmune disease that made me too weak to even attempt delivering naturally. I had a c section scheduled. However, I went into labor the night before that. I went into the hospital and they were going to try to wait it out until morning but her heart rate kept dropping so they decided on an emergency c section around midnight. They took me back and attempted a spinal multiple times and then an epidural multiple times. Neither would work on me so I had to go to sleep. I woke up intubated because the anesthesiologist didn't understand my disease and used the wrong medication. I was on the breathing tube for a few hours. Then I found out my baby was sick in the nicu. I was in the hospital for 6 nights and she was there for 9. It isn't always easy getting them in this world but it is the most amazing thing we can do 😊

I haven't had my baby yet but what a real warrior 😊you're a strong momma. !!!

I was having back to back contractions, I had to be induced I went to 40 weeks I was induced on feb 16th and had back to back contractions till around 11 that night then stood up and my water broke, yea it's a weird but actually a satisfying experience.. I was only at a 1 and had been till my water broke then in a matter of minutes I was at a 4 then when I arrived to the room for the delivery I was an 7 almost didn't get to receive the epidural but so glad I did worst pain ever, then about 30 mins later at 1:23 feb17th baby boy was born on his due date! it was crazy painful and FAST... but it didn't stop there he had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, I'll never forget the fear o felt not hearing my sweet boy cry for what seem like forever.. then my ob deciding sticks his whole damn arm in me trying to retrieve the placenta,but it wasn't happening, I had a placent abruption

so shostory is I almost died... from blood loss, and then had to sign a form stating They have permission for a hysterectomy, which at the time wasn't even a question lol, but I didn't die and thank god I didn't have to get the hysterectomy! In the end I'm in a daily battle with ppd but my sweet baby boy makes the fight worth it.

Thank you for sharing your story, what an amazing mom you are and all us mommas are strong in our own ways! Every story is such an inspiration. Stay proud and always enjoy the little things... happy early Mother's Day 💯

I have 3 kids, 1 step child & 2 of my own. My first child didn't wanna come lol I was in labor with her for 76 hours, it was rough I thought she was never gonna get here! With my second child that's a whole other story all together he came really quick I pushed half a push and his head was out, the doctor wasn't even in the room yet the nurses started freaking out and ran to get the doctor. But both experiences were amazing in their own crazy little way, I love my silly kids & I wouldn't trade them for anything!
