Thank you for taking the time to bravely share your birth story. I know that it will help others struggling and wondering why their pregnancy journey is so different than the Instagram reals. It was healing for me to listen because it validated emotions I experienced after the birth of my daughters. You are a kick ass woman!
I lost my first daughter. Emergency c section. All the alarms, cords and cables you mentioned. Very traumatic. I wish I could give you a hug ❤ I'm so sorry you went through what you did and I'm so glad everything worked out for you guys 💗 There's only one person on this Earth that knows what your heart sounds like from the inside
I am not a mom but to hear you say that "it might sound nice to skip the pain and the pushing" GIRL what you did sounds harder! I have been terrified of c-sections since I found out they were a thing in kindergarten. It is literally a core memory when my friend told me they had to open her mom up to get her out and I immediately went nope nope nope that sounds so much worse. When my sister had her c-section I was 13 and they used her to show students and her epidural wore off while her insides were still outside of her and he was showing what the organs looked like. Again, terrified. Mama they took your organs out of your body, laid them on a table, and put them back again. That is INSANE that you went through that and describe it as a little bit of pressure and tugging. You are a freaking warrior! You feel like you cheated but I think you definitely took the harder path. Also when your scar heals if you are into tattoos I would totally get a tattoo honoring your story around it / incorporating it. Turn that negative feeling into something purposeful! P.S. I may not be a mom but I am a 5 week early NICU baby with a traumatic birth story. I can say with experience that your son will grow up never doubting your love for him because he will know the hell you went through to get him here. It will help him to know that you will continue to go to the ends of the earth for him because you already did it.
hahaha yeah C sections are CRAZY but it helped me thinking about how they are the most common surgery in the world so the doctors have had plenty of practice doing them. They were a little TOO chill during my surgery lol talking to each other like it was lunch break over top of my body on the table. The tattoo idea is DOPE but I bet it would hurt like crazy there. xD I love the idea though. I will do everything in my power so my son never forgets how much we love him so!!!
Good for you M....it was so very brave for you to tell your story honestly and I think it could be a help to other Mothers out there that may have gone through something like this or even ones that have these feelings and don't talk about it out of fear. You are fearless and strong and I am so very happy that things are going well and I wish you and your family nothing but the very best.
You have brought back memories from forty years ago when I had my son, my first born. I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes about 8 months into my pregnancy. I went through about every single thing you did. I could write a book. I am so glad you are getting better! I still struggle looking back. It really took a mental toll on me. I guess I was weak and did not get the help that I needed. This is a great video and thank God you are there for so many young mothers going through the same emotions. God bless you.❤ I am about to become a great grandmother in a couple of weeks! My granddaughter has been diagnosed with gestational diabetes and is going to be induced early. I hope I can be of help to her as she is very nervous right now. She too was diagnosed with what you had with the vomiting all through her pregnancy.
You aren’t weak at all mama!!!!! You are strong and capable and having these emotions is so normal. Pregnancy is hard on us physically and emotionally and the emotions of it all will never truly go away and that’s what makes you human. So many congrats to you and your family for the new addition arriving soon!
I had to be induced at 38 weeks and my son got stuck on my hip bone and was born unresponsive and I bled a lot since this experience, it is traumatized, me and sexual activity does not appease me in anyway also, I had high blood pressure and preeclampsia and then two months later I had to have my gallbladder removed
My one piece of advice for pregnant girlies is if you feel that your ob/gyn doesn't really care about you and is trying to dismiss everything you say, maybe look into changing that doctor. I didn't and still regret it to this day. Also, it's crazy how little labor doctors and other personnel care about you, because I had pretty much the same experience. Like, most of them are nice, but you can see it in their faces that they do not care.
SAME, I should have changed as soon as I started to have bad vibes. But I pushed them down and told myself I was being "crazy". Looking back I wasn't crazy at all and I should always listen to my gut. Next time!!!!!!!!!!
Hey M, just a little note, Princess Kate of England was sick with Hyperemia’s with all 3 of the Royals, and also if you think of some of the famously named people in the news of today a lot of them have surrogates. Oh M as I listen to your story I wish you had reached out, I have been in the medical field for over 28 years, I would have driven to you and taken you to all new doctors!!!
ugh I feel so bad for her! But I bet she had literally the best staff helping her that money could buy. if only I was a royal LOL!!! My doctor even made a "joke" that maybe next time I should get a surrogate. Smh. I wish! Because pregnancy is so hard but at the end of the day it did give me my son so I wouldn't trade it for the world (:
i was very lucky through my 3 kids never morning sickness slept on stomach full 9 months till i went into labor my last kid no labor pains poor nurses came close to delivering doc came in just in time to catch her. i never went thru pregnancy norms. dont worry or fell gulty it took me 4 months with middle child to feel maternal instints. it was not until we there was something wrong with him . it came then. it will come i promise
normally when water breaks it is a gush. u water bag did break but leaked there big difference. they dont want a dry birth i surprised they did not admit u see if it stopped. they had to induce my daughter who has bad kidneys who could not support the pregnancy. i so sorry u had a rough pregnancy defiantly not a normal pregnancy. please remember this each pregnancy is different u next pregnancy can be completly different. remember even if u had C-SCTION YOU DID GIVE BIRTH

Thanks Linda for sharing your experiences! Having babies is so complicated and so are the feelings that comes with it
It will take time for you to heal if day if you ever want another child snap at your doctors make them do what you want to be done
next time I feel like I have the knowledge and confidence to be more assertive
normally when water breaks it is a gush. u water bag did break but leaked there big difference. they dont want a dry birth i surprised they did not admit u see if it stopped. they had to induce my daughter who has bad kidneys who could not support the pregnancy. i so sorry u had a rough pregnancy defiantly not a normal pregnancy. please remember this each pregnancy is different u next pregnancy can be completly different. remember even if u had C-SCTION YOU DID GIVE BIRTH

Where you not seen by an obgyn
she was an OB! She just sucked at bedside manner and listening to my needs.
