Another bit of advice for you mommies to be...ask for a squat bar and push from the squatting position if you are able. It speeds up the process by using gravity and your muscles are geared toward pushing the baby out. It makes a difference!
Great video, thanks for sharing! Congrats on your baby!
The hospitals send you right back home if you're not far enough along - your contractions should be 4 minutes apart for 1 minute each or so...any sooner, and you'll just be walking around the hospital taking up space. I figure she's waiting until she's at the right stage of labor.
That was what my mom told me.. I tookher advice cuz she had 4 kids..lol plpus i had went to the hospital like 4 weeks before with false labor and my haspital was like over half hour away. plus i got to eat. cuz once u get there and they hook u up you cant eat.. and trust me i was there for 10 hours b4 i had her and i was starving.lol
@cricketsmomma, Im just watching your videos and you should be so proud of yourself for being so strong and doing it all on your own... Good job girl you gave me inspiration thank you...!
how far r u im 20 and prego and well im very very nervous and well i guess it will all get better when i feel the baby or when its born and well ya a mom is never ready for what is coming and its always cool to talk things out and not be worried
First of all, you need a strong network of people who can show you support. 2nd, stay focus on the end product; a beautiful, healthy baby. Don't be afraid of labor. You will be guided and coached from begining to end. And hey, there's pain relieve such as an epidoral if you need it. You will be okay. Congrats!
She is right, if you get nervous about labor it will be ten times worse. It really is painful, but it doesn't last. And remember to breathe. Good luck and you will be fine!
in this video i was 22. i am curently 24.and there is nothing wrong if your 20 and pregnant. and congatulations on your pregnancy..do you know if you having a boy or girl? xox
Ok I know this was a long time ago but you videographer makes me laugh... Pain clearly on your face and "how do you feel" your response made me giggle... I am 23 weeks and look forward to this in January :)
congrats to you on your pregnancy..your date i see is coming fast. mt video grapher person is my mom..these videos were part of my birth plan..so no matter what i wasnt allowed to stop her.send me your video when you have your little one.. xox
is it like a burning pain or like period pain that we get
i really wanna have a baby , but watching these scare me , its not easy , not for anyone , some take it better then others but ive seen some where the women is screaming on the top of her lungs
i got pregnant at 16, and had my son at 17. my water broke at 4am, didnt have a contraction until abt 6, 6:30..and i pushed for an hour and didnt have any medications, i went natural and thought i was goin to die, but i was proud bcuz thats how i wanted to have him. he's gonna be a year old on monday. :)
sorry im responding a little late.. well congratulatipons and happy birthday to your lil man...you are a super trouper. my mom as well had me when she was 17. keep up the wonderful momminess..xox
after 27 hours of painful contractions i was just way too tired..i needed a break. only had it for 5 hours then i asked to be on pitocin to contradict the epidural so i could feel every thing. i wanted to know what everything felt like.
It feels like you cant poop but you have to, and the cramps are realllly painfull. But its more like pressure that u just cant handle. I was the happiest person with the epidural
Iwas in so much pain about 27 hours before i decided to take epidural..i needed it to rest..i didnt dialate until my water broke. but yet i was on epidural still for before i pushed..i took 5 hours of it and then right onto pitocin to help speed it up even then i pushed for 2 hours....i was like the most laziest person on epidural..i was so frigen exhauseted..
i couldnt cry when i was in labour =| i wanted to cry towards the end cause i had no meds or anyting or epidural but it was that painful i couldnt cry.... 26 hours later of labour it was worth it =]
Hey hun... I have watched all the videos of your labour and delivery. I hope I can handle it the same way you do. You did a fantastic job. I am due any day now and waiting in anticipation for my baby to be born. When I first saw your baby I cried... I know I am going to be the same as you :) Can't wait to see little one :)
Had a baby boy on March 14th. It was a rather rough delivery (24 hours but about 1/3 of that was with no break at all because baby was face up instead of face down... no epidural until 10 cm which they are not suppose to do but felt it might help with delivery). My son made it through though with some assistance from the obstetrician. Definitely most rewarding experience of my life! Going to wait a while for the next one though. lol!
thanx..well while you are in labor you have no choice to to just take it..lol i was in labor for 37 hours it hurt but not enough cuz i wouldlove to have more children one day..hehe
My god, you are so good during all of this, although I know you must have been feeling terrible the first time through. We're thinking of having a child and I wanted to know what I might be going through when we decide to have one. (or two because twins run in my family!)
ALL the questions and answers all all so helpful..thanks for being so informational!!! Im due in 1 week...at least I know alittle of what to expect. Congrats!!!!and your very strong...tears or not..at least you didnt scream through it all like alot of other women :)
when i had my twins it was very chaotic! but i havent hadthis little man yet, im 37 weeks today just uploaded a vid hoping he comes soon but all in good time i guess! ur little girl is beautiful and u managed ur labour sooooo well xxxx
congratulations..and i give you credit for keeping your child! i hope you enjoy your labor and delivery of your baby girl as much as i did..i hope she brings you as much joy as my baby girl does..
they offered me it right when my ater broke and that was with in 5 mins of being at hospital..lol but i stoped the epidural 2 hrs prior to the delivery and started on pitocin because i wanted to feel what it really feels like to push and stuff.i pushed for an hour but didnt feel that long..thank you..are you having a baby?
you are a natrual born mother!, use that strong beautiful womb, when you feel ready make another baby again ---bless you, the female is the earth goddess!
we all think the same thing my dear..but just remember it isn`t as bad as you think it is..even the girl who wrote a comment b4 you even said she would do it again..trust me by a week afer youll forget what that pain was..lol nature works in a funny way like that.
I want to do it all over again, don't u? lol Ask me that tonight around 3 AM when my daughter won't sleep b/c she wants to feed for a hour, and I'll say no, I'm content w/ one. ha
why you crying and wipe your tears at the begining? it is pain?
