Believe it or not I had a cup of mango and pineapple sauce with diced pineapple in it and I'm feeling great, who woulda thought lol but I'll keep the baking soda on mind for next time.

1/2 teaspoon baking soda dissolved in a cup of water (make sure it's completely dissolved, if the pain doesn't stop after 5 mins after you drink it all try one more time).

I feel you. In the same way! But I grew up with an older brother and a younger brother so having two girls is exciting!

I'm getting to the point where my fiance might have to sleep in thw living room type hungry but can't eat in fear of making it worse.

@krs1415 that is adorable, one reason why I might consider a second child. That and I grew up an only child and that was horrible. So I'm dying here and I thought the flavored water I was drinking was helping the acid reflux but in turn its making it much worse. Anything you can recommend that'll help get rid of it, I can't drink dairy milk and don't have any medications on hand so I'm quiet limited.

@x_graveyard_baby_x She tries to take the baby out of my belly so she can hold it 😂 she's baby OBSESSED though and often gets punched for trying to kiss whatever baby is near us. I am honestly afraid she is going to try to be a little mother hen to her baby sister and wind up tryin to pick her up or some shit lol she's going to be amazing help though, she already talks about helping change her and bathe her. Super cute.

@krs1415 what's your oldests take on all of this lol

During contractions I kicked one of my cousins out of the room and told her to go fuck herself simply because she said "just breathe" I said "BITCH I AM FUCKIN BREATHING NOW GET THE FUCK OUT!" 😂That was pre epidural.

@x_graveyard_baby_x Yep that's how I am, I do NOT do pain 😂 and noooope I really didn't feel shit. it was absolutely amazing. I am praying every single night that if I wake up in labor I make it for that dang epidural , I don't care if I poop, I don't care if I get sick, I don't care if it takes 2 hours to push like it did with my first. I don't wanna feel it this time either and I will beg and scream and cry until I get it 😂😂

@krs1415 so you really don't feel shit do you? Everyone tells me not to get it and that I'll be just fine, but I know myself I'm either going to pass out from the pain or just be a dick to everyone lol.

Oh and I had a weird affect from the epidural. It made my blood pressure go down a little so they had to give me adrenaline which made my heart race like 8384848 beats fast but it was over in just a couple of seconds. It isn't stopping me from getting it again lol it also slowed labor down for me a bit but since I didn't feel it, I didn't care lol

@x_graveyard_baby_x Oh no I am perfectly fine answering questions, it's reminding me that it wasn't as bad I thought lol I didn't feel the epidural go in at all 👍I had them do it during a contraction so I was completely distracted. It all happened fast. By the time the contraction was over the anesthesiologist said okay I'm gonna let you sit here for a couple of mins, tell me how you feel. I felt fine so I laid down and that's when I lost feeling from the waist down and heaven shined it's lights on me lol oh and the actual needle doesn't stay in. It's basically a catheter in your back , a teeny tiny tube that feeds the medicine in. That tube stays in until baby is born. But of course you don't feel it at all! I forgot it was there till time to take it out 😀

@krs1415 I have this super cool allergy to ibuprofen and anything that contains acetomeiphen so I'm limited in the pain med department. So did the epidural hurt going in or no? And what does it feel like after the needle is in? Is there any pain or is it all just pressure. Sorry for the overload of questions, I'm sure this is the last thing you want to be thinking about.

@mimimommyof2 lol thank you, it's been a journey and a half so far.

Oh yes you’ll have lots of weird stuff happening this is what we’re here for congrats!

@x_graveyard_baby_x I curse like a sailor, no worries lol the catheter is absolutely nothing to worry about, never even knew it was there lol seriously, I didn't feel anything at all, I didn't even know if I was pushing or not 😂 I was on my phone when they were like "you're a 10, time to push" like "okay let me justttt update Facebook, one second, okay let's go" 😂 I remember asking if I was even pushing enough or doing it right. It was heaven! And I only had to have four stitches. My baby was 5lbs 12oz, she was tiny. But the tearing wasn't even that bad. A little more sore than I would have been normally but hey that's what pain meds are for. I never went past my 4 hours without being on that call button "helloooo I need my perc pleasseeeee thanksssss" lol

@krs1415 and I thought shitting myself was going to be my worst nightmare during labor and delivery, I forgot about tearing and had no idea about catheter lol thanks for the heads up, and sorry about the language, mama with a potty mouth over here lol.

@x_graveyard_baby_x mmm I don't really remember lol they took it out after they stitched me up (I tore) and I think I was up and walking around an hour or two afterwards. Of course you don't want to get up and move at all anyway but I had to pee lol they give you a catheter after they insert the epidural so you don't pee yourself during labor and delivery so that's a big help,never even felt that part either lol

@krs1415 how long does the epidural last after birth?

@x_graveyard_baby_x Yes! I said that too haha I also said I wasn't ever having kids at all though 😂 having a kid is hard work. Labor and delivery is hard work too. I am grateful I made it in time for my epidural the first time. I don't think I would have survived. Although I got to the hospital at already being 7cm (I had back labor which felt like a kidney stone , I thought that's what was going on haha). I am absolutely TERRIFIED that I'm gonna go into labor again and it go super fast and miss my epidural window. I don't do pain either. Both babies movements when I was pregnant would have me up at 2am CRYING and begging them to be easy on me. I was that way just earlier today. So I feel your pain lol I'm OVER it but I'm too scared to even move my body in fear of triggering labor because I'm scared. As long as I have that epidural though I am peachy haha I did not feel SHIT when I had my first daughter because of that miracle lol

@krs1415 I honestly don't know how I'm going to be when I go into labor, I'm a totally pussy when it comes to pain, but I have to get this kid out somehow, 18 weeks today and time is flying by too fast for me. I think I might be ahead of when my due date is supposed to be, this kid is a damn circus acrobat and I feel every movement of it. I'm stressing over having one and you are damn near close to your second, I admire your bravery lol. My pansy ass is going to stick with one... But isn't that what everyone says lol.

@x_graveyard_baby_x Nope I'm still preggers 👍 almost two days over due. Totally fine with me though because I seriously am mentally not ready lol

@krs1415 have you popped yet? I've been waiting to see if you were going to post about it or keep it private for the time being.

@krs1415 it's just a pain when all you want to do is lay down and sleep but your heart feeling like it's going to explode.

@x_graveyard_baby_x Well that's good! Nothing ever made mine flare up or slow down. It just randomly happens alllllllll the time. Of course our blood volume is like doubled when pregnant so our hearts are working a little harder to pump!

@krs1415 they are slowly going away, I think it might have been the caffeine from the chocolate that caused it.

Completely normal. Had them with both and no nothin to get them to stop unfortunately :/
