what are some things people forgot to mention to you during labor or after? Mine was the after…

When they push hard to deliver the placenta😩😩

@bsandra, horribleeeeee 😭

@sandraluvx mine was the after birth contractions they were horrible

Ik😩 another one is they never mentioned that when you push your baby out, it burn so bad like if you rubbed the hottest pepper ever on your vagina😂

No doubt how horrible after birth would be. After my first I was miserable. I couldn’t sit, I swelled up like crazy, the peribottles and tucks pads. Not cool at all

I think the worst for me was how horrible I would feel walking to the bathroom the first time after having my daughter! I felt like I didn’t even know my body any more and I didn’t know if I would ever pee normal again. Lol

Going to the bathroom after! And the ring of fire when the baby is crowing. That was awful!

I second the going to the bathroom after... burns like crazy 😭

I thought it was amazing when the afterbirth came out.. So much weight lifted

They push all hard making sure everything came out! That was the worst part. And bleeding forever. That was also lame. And the no sex part

Mine just splooshed out on its own, they even showed me in a dish after. It was quick and I didn’t need to push or anything. The pushing on my stomach wasn’t bad either.

For me it was how much you pee after the catheter comes out- they put a special pan in the toilet because they wanted to look at the urine after, and I just kept going and going and it overfilled and I swear I lost like a gallon of fluid! Also the amount of pain AFTER the drugs wore off- I couldn’t even sit properly for the longest time. Ouch. Not looking forward to post birth pains. Hopefully it’s less this tome around. Oh and I was told no baths for 6 weeks after. I had pretty bad second degree tearing and tons of stitches though- I’ve heard others were not given this restriction. All I wanted was a bath after!!!

I should not have read these comments lol 🙈🙈🙈😱😱😱....how can I click the unsee button 😂😂😂

My sister just told me about the shakes you get right after you give birth, sometimes for 5-10 mins! Did anyone else get this?

@suz., I had them. It was an odd experience. They just kept giving me a ton of warming blankets.

@brianna.bruch, Oh I see, so interesting 😯

What is this burning y’all are talking about?! I didn’t have any burning and I have pushed out 3 babies 😳 this last time was all natural too 🤔

The hardest part was the no sex 😂

@brianna.bruch, I had them during labor!! Everyone was so concerned asking me if I was shaking cuz I was scared or shaking cuz I was cold... but I was nither 🤷‍♀️ I guess it was just the hormones and strain my body was going through

@girlmom., did you have an epidural? Usually the burning is from having a catheter when you get the epidural and going to the bathroom after they take it out

@akcatprincess, yes, I had 2.

@girlmom., you were just lucky then 😭

@akcatprincess, yeah I have super easy pregnancies and deliveries 🙌🏻
