Not What I Expected | My FAST LABOR & Delivery Story
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2024
- This delivery was SUCH a different experience from the labor of my first baby and I was totally shocked by the whole thing. I never, ever expected it to go this way, especially after I was so traumatized by the recovery I went through after my induction last time. It just goes to show that every single pregnancy and delivery can be completely different. Moms, was your experience the same way? How was your 2nd (or more) compared to your 1st?
As I mentioned in the video, here is what happened with baby #1:

I was so emotional listening to this Jen! I remember how traumatized you were after having Aria. What an amazing story! Ezra is absolutely beautiful, congratulations. ❤️
Still up to this date, I can’t believe I grew up watching your video and now you’re a mom of two!! I can’t wait to meet Ezra in tea life. He’s such a joy to just look at😍😍 God bless you Jen. Miss you xx
I hope this doesn’t sound weird but you look like such a beautiful, confident WOMAN here. Like motherhood has really made you shine. You and Ezra are easy to look at :) Congrats ❤️
Ezra is sooo cute and precious, omg!!!!
Studio86 Feels weird to hear my name given to a youtubers kid xd
I love the way you tell stories ❤️
She's the best!
So glad to hear that your 2nd delivery went so positive!!! You are so sweet and kind and it's about time. You deserve to get a break and if that's with an easier delivery then hey, why not. Lol..... I felt so bad for you with your last pregnancy and how difficult it went but I'm so glad after watching this that this time around it all worked out great!! Ezra is so cute and has both a little of you both in him.
When you talked about how you needed to get Aria to school (even when you're in labor!), I knew you were definitely Korean. Koreans don't miss school for nothin. LOL
What the heck, that is is the cutest baby ever lol.❤️😂
He smiled for a bit there!!! :)
Are the baby names PLL inspired or is that just a coincidence?
Just a coincidence! I've never seen the show but we apparently both have great taste in names ;)
@@frmheadtotoe Never watch the show. Not til your babies are grown and out of the house. And maybe not even then. So happy your experience was such a nicer one this go round.
I literally just scrolled to find this comment.
That is a huge coincidence! lol
You're such a calm and lovely story teller 😘 and Ezra is such a beautiful baby!
OMG! He is perfect! 😍 I love the way you describe your experiences! It is good to hear that bad situations doesn’t last forever. ❤️
Thank you for being so raw and honest. I love how open you are about everything related to pregnancy and post partum. As a first time mom due in July I really want to know as much as possible so I can prepare.
Danielle S I always feel like honesty is the best policy. After my first, I asked my mom friends why they didn’t warn me about the recovery and they told me they didn’t want to scare me! but I just wished I had one person who was really open so I didn’t have to feel so alone ❤️
@@frmheadtotoe I feel like most women won't go into details about postpartum recovery and it can feel isolating if your recovery isn't smooth sailing. The truth is there can be tearing and stitches and incontinence and that is all part of the recovery process. It's so refreshing to hear someone be so open ❤
If you haven't already, prepare with knowledge and emotionally for the possibility of a c-section. I had my little boy last July and needed an urgent c-section. I had done the research about them but convinced myself that I was going to have a natural birth that I wasn't ready for how much not having a vaginal delivery hurt emotionally.
The neutral look of your bedroom is so relaxing! Thank you for sharing your story! I was getting emotional with you....I am so happy for you ❤️❤️❤️
Love this video 😭❤️ I really admire how assertive you were about wanting your epidural!! I actually said ‘what’ when you said he came out in 2.5 pushes 😂 much love to you and your family ❤️❤️
Nicole Anne tbh I do have a short clip on my phone that my mom took right after I gave birth (it’s ahem, not appropriate for TH-cam so I didn’t include it) but my face in it has the WHAT look still. Pretty funny 🤣
I'm so happy that you had a positive experience this time around. My first was traumatic and I'm currently praying for a better experience with my second. Ezra is a cutie and you're such a fantastic storyteller
I really want to have kids, but I am so terrified of tearing down there. I don't know how I would be able to deal with that. Thank you for sharing your story tho! You getting emotional and seeing how happy you are really encourages me to want to have my own kids one day despite the fear
I've never had a baby so take this with a grain of salt but apparently if you massage down there and do certain stretches during the pregnancy the chances of tearing are significantly reduced
When you tear it's ranked 1-4. 1 being just a small tear while 4 is you tore all the way to your butt hole. I had a 3rd degree tear so I didn't tear all the way down but still had a big tear. It hurt to walk, sit and pee. But after about 2 weeks it was ok. Yes the recovery isn't pleasant but when you have your baby it's worth it in the end. However it make me reconsider having another kid lol bc it was painful but that's my experience.
Tearing is not guaranteed, everyone is different just like every delivery is different. But please know that your body will heal and the baby will make everything worth it.
Tearing pain is nothing compared to labour pain though. Once the baby arrives it is all worth it 😍
@@Wewhosee-im3ii your body doesn't go back to normal. You need stitches
You have the most beautiful babies!
I didn’t know about the trick to flip over with the epidural! I had the half numb experience and they gave me a second one and told me I had scoliosis or something. Ugh ...
Im so glad your labor and delivery experience was more pleasant this time! Generally, your second baby is “easier” than your first. Not always but likely!! And that pooping feeling you got at home usually means ezra’s head was low, hitting that rectal nerve! Im a L&D RN and i love what i do!! ☺️
Why has it taken me so long to think where I'd heard the names aria and Ezra..... I loved PLL lol
Aria and Ezra are the cutest chunkiest babies ever!! You are such a lucky mama to have these two 😍
Finally ❤ waited 4ever and feel very happy for you! He is so adorable and cute 😍😍😍
He smiled when you said his name! So precious! Congrats and I cannot believe I have been following you before you had Aria. Time does fly! Can’t wait to see you and your beautiful family more in the future!
It was similar for my second! But I missed the chance for an epidural 🤪 . It was terrible... luckily I pushed once and he came right out... first time i pushed for two hours!!
Christina B this is simultaneously my dream and my nightmare 😂
I think the baby could have missed 1 day of preschool. What a stress for your mom..
Milagros Castro 😆 True
I heard the first child is always the hardest and the second or third child is easier
Kenz 4ever ....Not always - you would think and hope lol but my 1st was horrid and my 2nd was the easiest like laughing through labor easy and then back to not so great with the third, makes me nervous for this fourth baby.
Joleen Louise omg never experienced pregnancy 😂 I just heard from my teacher in school (randomly talking about pregnancy idk y) but good luck and take care
The 3rd is usually a free for all! Sometimes much harder and sometimes it's easier. Scary lol.
I will give birth soon. We don’t usually have epidural in Japan. So I am freaking scare...thank you for sharing your experience.
Good luck with the birth! I had a natural birth with no epidural or any pain meds with my daughter. It was intense but amazing. You will do great! ❤️❤️
You can do it, I've had both and loved not having pain medication. It's such a beautiful experience.
You'll do great! I had 2 unmedicated and it's the most powerful experience ever. You get to see how strong your body really is. Good luck! Remember to relax and ride every contraction wave :)
His smile just melts your heart😍 Congrats Jen!!
I gave birth to five kids. My second child traumatized me most. Since then, my pregnancies after, I would have panic attacks when my due date was near.
HerFamily Channel honestly it’s refreshing to hear this. Sometimes we assume moms of large families are just good at giving birth but it’s hard for everyone! You’re a warrior mama for pushing through all the fear!
From Head To Toe thank you Jen! You’re a warrior yourself! Keep inspiring and sharing! ❤️
Oh my god! I’m like crying because I had the worst pregnancy and the worst delivery with my first. She tore me so bad they called it a 3b degree tear (though at first called it a 4th degree)! They stitched me for about an hour too and they counted 20 towels of blood. I was like you, couldn’t sit, thought I had an infection because of the pain, couldn’t hold in my pee. Same. Same. Same. I am terrified to have a second. But this seriously gave me a little hope that it doesn’t have to be so horrific again. 😭
That sounds terrifying!
missmodernlove sooooo much hope! My obgyn said it will definitely be easier the second time but I didn’t believe her until I went through it myself 💪
About the same for me, Im going to have my second in April. I’m scared but hopefully this time it’s better.
I feel for you! I had a 3b as well! HORRIBLE!!!! this time I had a c section this time beause my OB said if I tore like that again then I could have lasting issues. :( Thank god I did the c-section and its been easy so far (obviously relatively speaking)
No Name really? Not sure how long you waited for your next baby after the 3b tear, but I’m 15mos PP and sometimes when I sit on hard surfaces it feels tender where the rip was.
I’m so glad it happened so fast!! Wow!
Your kids have the same name as the Pretty Little Liars couple “Aria and Ezra”. Lol
Jen, you are perfect as you are, torn and all. Two perfect children make you a perfect woman. Congratulations and take care, love from Holland 🎉🐙✨
Flowers and Diamonds this is beautiful 😭 thank you!
Oh sister!! My first and second were almost exactly like yours! I could not believe that it could be so much different and better. I've since had 2 more and those births were more like my second. I'm so happy for you! P.S. my youngest is named Ezrah. He will be 2 in March. 😊💖
lol I was that woman down the hall laboring with no medication 😂 everybody should do what makes them happy...i have no regrets about going med free and felt super empowered...but in the end we all get beautiful
Babies to cuddle! Mine is 1 month today :) congrats!!!
I normally don't comment but I have been watching you for years! Just want to say how adorable Ezra is, OMG!!! He is just too much! Congratulations to you and your beautiful family! You are amazing mama!
16:04 omg had to pause and coo and squeal and comment down below at his gorgeous little cute face smiling 😍😍😍😆😆😆 so precious!!!! I die!!!
I'm on my second pregnancy, just got into the 3rd trimester. My labor went super quickly the first time and I didnt tear enough for stitches, not bragging I was extremely fortunate. But even without that, peeing after giving birth was SOOOOO PAINFUL. I held in my pee for the 1st week and my baby was taken into the NICU due to lung issues so I wasn't so focused on myself. Until I ended up super sick from a terrible bladder infection from holding my pee. Anyways, I can only imagine how you must've felt from your 1st labor and postpartum experience. Cause I am terrified and I didnt come close to what you went through. You are one tough mama!!!! Congrats on Ezra he is beautiful and so perfect!!
Sounds like my labor and delivery story! Only was had 0 time for an epidural, by the time we got to the hospital I was pushing 🤦🏽♀️
Gi B Same! lol
Omg scary so they couldn't give u pain meds??? How did u not die
@@englishjumper123 lol. He was my 3rd baby, my biggest and also my fastest delivery
Don't forget to mention the extreme stomach cramps after birth, and while mainly breastfeeding too....those cramps that help shrink your uterus are so, so painful!
Yes!!! My first was three days of labor. And my second was three hours!!!! Night and day difference. Blessings
I got the same experience with my second baby, except that my water was manually torn at 10cm..because I have to push. But the pain was intense, I was admitted 10pm in the evening at 5cm and gave birth at 3am! Quick but intense!
You should had the baby without epideral. I have 5 kids without an epidural! The younger generation don't are whimps! Forgot that includes twins!
I am 4’11 and my husband is 6’1, I am pregnant and I hope my baby is not as big. I hope she weights around 6lbs. Let’s see, I will be 37 weeks tomorrow and I am so ready to meet our babygirl
Congratulations a year late! My 2nd baby was born less than 5 hrs and my 3rd was born in 2 hrs! So watch out! 😊 im so happy you had a better experience. And i do relate to feeling empty and wounded inside. With 3 deliveries, ive come to the conclusion that the faster the delivery the more of a shock it is to the system. I preferred my 5hr delivery to my 2hr. God's continued blessings upon you and yours! Merry Christmas 2019!
Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy. My first set of twins tore me identical girls 19 stitches. My second set of twins boy and girl 8 stitches. I know about a horrible delivery and a easy one. You have 2 healthy and beautiful children and your still healthy and gorgeous and that is all that matters. I put my children in a expensive but great daycare at 1yrs old and it was worth it
labor and delivery is soooooo much more caring and nurturing in Asian countries. Tearing is highly controlled. Worst case scenario you would get a very smooth incision and very carefully stitched back with scare almost unnoticeable.
I am so happy for you. You are beautiful and so strong. I admire you so much. Congratulation I'm so happy
Wow that was a great birth! I wish my second birth would be like that if i have a second birth.
Omg! My first labor was so crazy, but my last (3rd) was super fast too. I arrived at the hospital at 7:15 and had the baby on my chest at 7:29! It was wild. I just put out my crazy 1st labor story, but that was super long...22 hours! I love labor and delivery stories. Thanks for sharing.
Just remember the first baby literally paves the way for the following. My second went much easier than my first. Both unmedicated home births. Both painful but the second was easier all around. Very easy recovery with the second also! Oh and just because you are at 10cm does NOT mean that it's time for the baby to come out. With my first I was at 10cm for almost 10 hours before she was ready to come. And with my second he was sunny side up when I was 10cm so I had to walk around until he turned. Glad you had a much better experience! I hear the third baby is a free for all lol. Sometimes easier sometimes harder. Hopefully if you have a third it will be easy too! He's almost bigger than you, and the cutest baby ever!
I know everyone is gonna say it, but I gotta say it too! Ezra and Aria are so dang cute!!! :D
And I'm soooo glad that everything with Ezra went better than expected! Thank God! ^_^
And I check no your insta every so often, but don't have one to post replies to... But I totally get the feeling you had over New Years and your New Year not seeming as perfect as everyone else's Gosh, life is just so freaking hard sometimes and sometimes its literally because of things you can't control, but you gotts deal with it and it sucks... But I'm just thankful that God takes the bad stuff and ends up turning them around somehow :) And I love what you said about waiting on new purchases too! I'm trying to declutter and buy less and more responsible and get my family to do it XD Buts its harder to convince them XD Slowly but surely though! And Amen to all the things about friends! :D
Ahhh thank you so much for the reply here even though you don’t have your own IG account! Nobody’s life is as perfect as social media makes it out to be. We ALL struggle ❤️ we just need a reminder sometimes
@@frmheadtotoe
Thank you so much to replying to me as well! ^_^
Not related but is it weird having kids named Aria and Ezra because of Pretty Little Liars?
I'm so encouraged to hear how this labour and delivery went! God is good :) and Ezra is the cutest bundle of joy ever
Yes, he's perfect!! I can't stop staring at him. ❤️
I hope every mom have the most easy labor please pray for me too
When Ezra smiles, my heart just melts!! He's so adorable!
Where is your sweater from? Sooooo nice!
You have such beautiful babies!!! God bless your family xoxo
I was my mum’s third baby and from what I’ve heard it was similar for my birth! & it sounds ideal to me! Congratulations. This was such a lovely video to watch!
Oh my gosh his little smile
You’re a rockstar mama!! Our birth stories are so so very similar. My first baby, my daughter is also two and I also tore severely, had an episiotomy and had the worst labor and recovery you can imagine!! I got ptsd and severe postpartum anxiety and depression after. So similar to yours, so I feel you!! And my second delivery with my son was so quick, and just so amazing!! He came out so quick as well and the recovery was so much easier!! Crazy our babies deliveries were super similar!! Loved the way you told the story of your delivery and the way you explained how you felt after delivery, that hollow, sore, and loose feeling was just the best way you could possibly describe it. Loved this. Thank you so much for sharing.
Awww I'm new here and Ezra's so cute! That little smile!
OH my goodness, my 2nd baby was 2 hours from first contraction to having the baby. I almost didn't make it to the hospital! I am all with you with the drugs, now doing a meds labor and accidentally med free labor...glad that second one went way better for you! He is so dang cute!
OMG! Same story here. Water breaking and from 0 to a MUCH HIGHER number of pain. And going to hospital and 7 cm dialated. I couldn't have epidural anymore.. haha. But it went soooo fast!!! I came in around a bit before 00.00 hours and on 00.01 they put me on the monitor, told me I was already 7 cm, I could not have epidural and around 00.25 my daughter was in my arms :D.
With my 4th i went from zero to labor within an hour. I got to triage at 10 cm, had her 15 min later lollll
ok im new but i just wanted to say she looks a lot like constance wu
What a beautiful birth story. Since pulling my guy out 22 mo ago, I can now truly appreciate how amazing the body is at giving birth regardless of the outcome. Thank you for sharing. Mine was a quick one too with the biggest pop/crack sound at the start. Baby came just shy of 7 hrs but no epi for me, anaethetist was an hr too late 😭 (literally sent death stares when he walked in). Still thanking god, that my little one came naturally at 38+ wks. Oby predicted a big baby and we were to be induced at 39 weeks. He was massive!
Wow! The labor of my first baby is almost exactly the same! I went to bed around 11, feeling like I was nowhere close to labor, about to be 39 weeks after midnight, and then woke up at 1:30 feeling like pooping so I got up to use the bathroom and nothing happened, I had to get up to go a couple times but couldn't go, then suddenly got contractions. After a couple contractions it was unbearable! They were, I'm not lying, a minute and a half apart, lasting a minute and I called L&D and they told me it's just stress and to drink water and wait an hour. No. After a couple more contractions I Needed to be at the hospital so we got there as fast as we can and I was 8cm and had her at 3:30 😭 I'm pregnant with my second and really scared that it might be faster
Hi...u r so lucky...i didn't had any epidural..i give birth naturally...😅 thanks God..im alive😅😄we are superwomen💪💪💪
So glad to hear your second labour went so well. I've had 3 bubbas now. All 3 without pain relief, but my labours are pretty quick. My first was 10lb 5oz and took 11.5 hours - was dilated to a 10 when arrived at hospital. Number two was 7lb 10oz and was a total of 5.5 hours labour and I only made it to the hospital with 10 mins to spare before he was born (we live 10 mins away from the hospital) - I ate dinner at 7:15pm, thinking maybe I was in labour - he was born less than an hour later. My husband's face when he heard the midwife say "he'll be out in one more contraction". Last bubba was born in July and was a total of just under 4 hours labour and was 9lb 5oz.
I had a similar experience with my second. Tore pretty badly with my first too, but not so much for my second. For the birth of my second, everything happened so fast. I was also 8-9 cm dilated by the time I got the epidural. I was like you...in pure panic mode! It took everything in me to hold still long enough to get that epidural. I was in such pain. But the nurse told me it’s not too late to get an epidural as long as you are able to hold still to get it. I was like, “There’s no way in hell I’m doing this natural!” Lol! Contractions felt like they were coming every second so with tears rolling down my face, I fought to get that epidural. 4 pushes later, my sweet baby Nolan was out. He was born with one bottom tooth and wanted to cluster feed immediately. So no rest for this mama. And breastfeeding was super fun with that bottom tooth 🦷 *Note the sarcasm 😉 Anyways, thanks for sharing. Baby Ezra is adorable!
I LOVE this video!! Thank you for sharing! I have three kids...i tore really bad with my first, TORE!! Lol..You make beautiful kids!!!
He’s so cute!! And thanks for sharing your true story, both of them. Glad to know that this was better. And incredible that you arrived to the hospital with 7! That must have been really painful.
Love from Chile!
Labor and Delivery Nurse here 🙋🏻♀️ and a big fan of yours!!! I loooovvvveeed this story 😍🥰 you’re amazing!! Hearing this side of a delivery is awesome and I remember how traumatic your first delivery was so I’m so happy this was your experience for the second time around.
Congrats! u have such a beautiful babies :). I had my first child without epidural so I feel the pain that u experienced... it was horrible... I thought it's the end of my life.
36 weeks pregnant with my second and I’m getting anxiety thinking about giving birth.. with my first I was induced contractions were not terrible (epidural saved my butt) I pushed her out in like 2 mins. I feel like people always have a “good” and “bad” birth so I’m hoping this one isn’t traumatizing!!
He is SO cute! He looks so huge and almost like he’s 5-6 months already. Congratulations. I recall being pregnant and watching your post partum video. At the time, it made me feel like anything could happened. In reality, it went very smooth and nothing bad happened beside pushing for nothing for 3 hours. He had to be helped with forceps, but then he arrived quickly. I miraculously did not tear up and I could walk right away. Anyways, so glad to hear about your experience with Ezra :-)
NO PAIN compares to giving birth naturally without epidural. I was the same. I asked for an epidural the entire time to later find out my mom told the anesthesiologist that I didn't want an epidural so I gave birth without it... She was scared I would get paralyzed if I got it. At first, I was mad but then I was like whatever, I have a healthy baby. I'll take it lol
Hi, Jen! Congrats on both your precious babies. Can I ask how heavy they were when you delivered them? I’m about your size and everyone keeps telling me I’m gonna need a C section. Which I dread. Seeing you and how you had your normal delivery gives me a bit of hope. Much love ❤️
Omg totally said “surprised it looked a lot more normal” with you at the same time when you talked about the mirror. I loved this. Thanks for sharing!
I’m a few months away from having my second and I’m TERRIFIED of having too quick of a labor. I had an almost perfect delivery of my first and I hope it goes the same this time, though I’m sure it won’t. I would be all for only 2.5 pushes though. That sounds awesome. Loved this video!
Congratulations! He’s so handsome.
My first child was super traumatic also. (nicked my uterine artery, ended up in the ICU) my second was a breeze almost like yours. I never thought I would have a second child because of how traumatized I was. But now I have a beautiful 6 month old daughter.
Thanks for sharing your story. Love the way you tell it how it is.
Thank you so much for your story! I am pregnant with my second baby and hearing a story like this is very uplifting to me!
I love listening to your birth story of Ezra. It’s so exciting when you get to the part where the doctor told you to stop, then ok final push! Hahha. I just had my second baby. (3 months ago). My second baby is also very different (easier and less pain delivery), but the recovery was a bit harder for me. I am now having back pain, sore legs, sore arms... but so glad your recovery is better than the first recovery!
My recovery with my first was similar to yours. I tore really bad and took awhile to sit without pain. The recovery was so painful. I was so scared to have another baby after that experience. My second pregnancy my daughter came so quick almost 3 weeks early! Labored for 6 hours and she came after a few pushes with only a few stitches. Watching your video reminded me of how different both delivers were.
Thank you for sharing ♥️ I had a 52 hour labor being induced early with a 3 hour “push” and developed severe anxiety afterwards, not to mention walking around the house peeing everywhere... my son is 1 now and we really want a second but I’ve honestly been really scared and traumatized from my first l&d experience. But your story gave me courage and hope again!! Thank you!! 💕
Your labor and delivery story is amazing! I also got my epidural at 7-8cm but I pushed like 30 pushes and it was super exhausting. You’re a rockstar ❤️
When I had my first daughter, I was having a mild fever so I could not have epidural. When I had my second daughter, my contraction started quickly and delivered her in one hour and half so did not have time to use epidural. When my friends adored my bravery, I am like @&$-&@I did not want to go through that pain!!!
Your labor would of been even faster without the epidural lol I've had 4 babies and all of mines were super fast. I couldn't get the epidural by the time I got to the hospital but my pain was never that bad. I was told after the 1st baby the 5-1-1 rule doesn't apply because labors are faster after the 1st. I was told that if I had constant contractions 10-15mins apart for more than an hr to go to the hospital especially because of my 1st delivery.
My first birth was similar to Aria’s...almost two hours of stitching..3.5 hours of pushing with forceps etc. The second birth was only 40 stitches or so. But my boys are 18 and 21 this year and they are SO worth it ❤️
Anyone who says miracles don't exist obviously doesn't know what goes on during the gestation and birth process. I mean, c'mon!! God bless you and your little family. Glad you are well ❤️
Thank goodness this time was a lot easier for you considering your first was tramatizing. I pray for a easy, smooth, and healthy 2nd pregnancy. Im 20 wks a long. My first was tramatizing in its own way and Im nervous for labor and delivery. Thanks for sharing your story.
Damn. You are so beautyful. Love your New hair colour. And Ezra is so cute.
Have you named your children Aria and Ezra after seing Pretty Little Liars, or is a coincidence?
He is so adorable just like Auria! I totally understand your experience with Auria. Im a small person and my baby was 3.67 kg, I had to have a cut down there and it took about 3 month for the feeling of pain and uncomfortableness to go away. However it is just the sweetest feeling when I hold my baby and see him smile at me. It is amazing
This first part sounds like my first delivery, when we got to the hospital I was already 7cm dilated. From the time I felt contraction till I’m 7cm dilated was about an hour. I ended up having my baby naturally without the epidural, everything just happened so quick I had a 4th degree tear and they had to sew me twice. I’m going to have my second baby in April, my doctor suggest c section since I torn so bad the first time. I’m so scared because it’s a major surgery and I keep seeing news about people’s c section cut opens month after delivery.
I'm so happy for you, Jen!! I remember watching your labour story video for Aria and crying along with you. Thank you for sharing and being real. I am so afraid of labour but it's people like you and videos like these that help and give me strength! ❤️
First time, had an epidural but it wore off.. pushed for 4.5 hours. Second one I checked into the hospital at 8cm, no epidural, and pushed for 20 mins. Huge difference!!
I’m creeped out how similar our stories are, I’m recovering from my first birth and have a 3rd degree tear. I feel exactly the way you described your last experience.I’m having such a rough and painful recovery and am absolutely terrified to have another. Thank you for posting this, it gave me a grain of hope. My delivery was less than 4 hours from start to finish and my epidural didn’t really work.... so hopefully another one doesn’t happen faster
Oh my!!!!! Watched half the video and just finished the second half!! How funny!!! My husband almost missed out baby's birth too!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣. We thought we would be sent home when I went to the hospital....so our daughter was with us and my husband needed to take her home and wait for his mom to come watch her....🤣😂🤣
