Still in labor , i went all the way to 7cm & just couldn’t take it anymore 😩 I got the epidural. I feel like a complete failure!
No your not Hun, great job.
Those drugs are there for a Reason.. I didn’t want to use it either I kept saying no until that pain kicked in I felt a lot better after I got it
No mama is ever a fail. Omg i cant bel8eve hes here!!! You did fantastic!!!!!
Just saw the baby pic! Omg! 😍 I’m so proud of you, girl!
Labor is incredibly painful. You are not a failure. You’re a rockstar for even lasting 7 cm. It is tough! You have to do what’s best for you and if you’re too drained, you won’t have the energy to push.
Just trust you did the right thing and keep going! ❤️ Hoping you have that cute baby in your arms soon.
You’re not a failure! You’re strong. Using an epidural doesn’t make you less of a mother or weaker. You got this!
You're sooooo not a failure! I did the same with my first born! I was so damn drained I told the nurses I didn't have anything left to give for the actual birth so I got it at the last minute. 2nd birth I got the epidural right away... Then had to be pulled off cause it worked too well 😂. At the end of it all, you still deliver a baby, so feel like the champion you are!
There’s a reason they have those drugs! Even before they existed women would take different substances (not all the healthiest and some quite dangerous) for pain relief during delivery—- it is nothing new. I hope you have your sweet baby in your arms soon.
You’re doing great sweetie !! Sending love 💕
I did the same thing! You're not a failure at all. You're still bringing a new life into this world that YOU grew and nourished. Best of luck!
Don’t feel that way, I did the same and my nurse was awesome about it she said “labor is not a competition, either way you choose for your labor doesn’t make you any less of a mother you being there to bring life is golden and at the end you get the same result a beautiful healthy child”
You're not a failure! At least now you can rest and prepare to see your bundle of joy! Congrats ! Can't wait to see him !

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
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...
Things I never thought I'd say...
Until I became a mom:
You did a great job baby you will never fail
