Awww ur amazing... Did your 4th one become more painful?

@brittney.arp11 wow , this will be my 6th c-section && it's got me very scared I've never had 2 small ones this close together .. my others are 2 years apart so this is all new to me with the closeness .. and the gettin away with idea sadly isn't goin to happen lol my little can't walk yet but she's gettin there .. Guess I'll just have to make her crawl everywhere 🤔🙄😞 that doesn't seem too fair to Her thou .. just wished I had support/any support .. hope all goes well & safe with your c-section , congratulations 🤗😇👣♡

@_ivyjayde lol .. no worries 😊

lol omg my toddler commented that 🤦🏽‍♀️

I have 3 kids already and going for my fourth c section in November. I feel your scaredness. I don't blame you at all. Thankfully your other is 1 and you can get away with not picking him or her up much. I think extra pain meds if you are tolerant enough :\ I had this issue when my 8 and 9 year olds were babies and it's tough but you'll make it!!!

My only plan is to take it one day at a time. It'll get easier!

@skyee.niicole4, c section . & aw really wow , aw man don’t worry hun you will get threw this . We women are strong and we go threw a lot but we always get threw it all

@_mommyoftres my mom and I don't talk at the moment , she's always treated me like sh.t so it's not to be expected anymore , just sucks for me and my babies .. are you havin a natural birth or c-section mamaa.? I'm sorry your in this situation too 😣😞😯🙁

@emmamarch16th omg your so lucky to have that help hun I'm very happy && a little jelly lol .. my situation is just so hard bec I'm goin thru a crisis in my eyes .. I live with my father who every week or other week says he wants us out and then I'm so financially broke . It's just all a big mess rn but I definitely appreciate your help and senserity I will def look into this thou , thank you 🤗😊🖤

Really hour by hour... It's really hard even with help. I would make sure you have several safe places for your newborn and one year old, so that you feel comfortable leaving one and tending to the other while they are crying. If that makes any sense? Like a jumper, pack and play, etc for your one year old. Because they will cry sometimes at the same time and it's hard for me my two year old can get out of his pack and play and run away! Also I always wondered how I would handle two at one time and what do you do when they're both crying?? A nurse gave me the best advice, but she said your infant will surely not remember if you tend to your toddler first. But your toddler may remember if you always tend to baby first. So when you can do so, safely, try to tend to your toddler first and then the baby. I have to make sure they are both in a safe controlled spot before I run to the other one. It's not easy but it is doable. And don't feel bad if you break down and take a second while they are both crying. Because it is really overwhelming but you will get through it 😊 I had a c section with both my guys and the recovery has been harder this time around with 2yr old to deal with. Just don't overdo it and go slow. Remember to take your meds on time and don't lift/bend or anything unless absolutely necessary. The worst part for me is I can't even hold my two year old right now or play like we used to. It makes me so sad. But he is 30lbs and I do NOT lift him unless absolutely necessary. The day will come again when I can do all that 😥 but today is not that day.

Well I’m in the same situation right now , I have no one but my husband as well . My mom is far , won’t know if my mom will be here by the time I give birth. But my plan is just winging it , giving birth , and husband will take care of my daughter & son while I have those 3 days in the hospital , thennnn just handle the kids on my own . Which i know it’s going to be HARD . But that’s my plan right now .. you don’t have your mom someone close that can help you ?

I have a 2 1/2 year old son and due with a little girl on 1st of jan (planned cesarean around 27th December). My husband works up the other end of the country so I’m hoping, with the fact that the date for the section will be booked in, he will be able to get that specific day off of work.

We’ve recently employed a nanny who starts the middle of October so I’m hoping that’s enough time for her to get to know my son, his bedtime routine etc and visa versa before the cesarean. He also has his regular classes etc which she will take him to so he has the normality here too. My husbands mum has taken two weeks off work around Christmas so she will also be able to come over and help look after him for a couple of hours here and there as after that one day my husband will be away with work and won’t be able to help at all !

I feel sick with the stress of it all to be honest because I haven’t spent one night away from him since he was born and I’m the one who puts him to bed. I’m hoping by having her do a fair few of bed times whilst I’m there he will get used to it and won’t be so upset by it once I’m out of action for a bit 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

The nanny I’ve employed also did maternity nursing which a lot of mums in my situation do for a month or so after the new baby is born. If family aren’t an option (I know I can’t rely on mine at all!) then maybe this would be for you?
