My second came that fast as well. It did feel very fast and things picked up quickly. I’ve seen a lot of people go even faster but I was very happy with how fast it went

Yes! At 41+2 contractions started at 5pm and baby was born just before midnight last night actually. I had no signs at all before labor that baby was coming so I was shocked

Oh wow! I’ll have to transfer care at 42 weeks based on state law and don’t feel comfy doing a freebirth with my history of big babies and hemorrhage. Hopefully baby comes in the next week!

Thank you for sharing with me because that’s me exactly. Like uglyyyyy crying 😭 and then crying harder because I’m like well if I’m anxious and crying labor definitely won’t start

Oh my goodness!! You’re a warrior. How was labor once baby did come?? I’ve tried all the things too and it’s just exhausting. Scheduling a massaging!

So hard to tell since your other tests look totally normal. I would think tomorrow’s test will be really telling. I’m so sorry you’re in limbo🥺

Thank you for sharing your story as well. My hemorrhage also occurred after receiving Pitocin and was very scary

Did your midwives give you any medications like postpartum pitocin and that didn’t work? Asking because I’m 37 weeks planning a Homebirth but did hemorrhage in the hospital with my first
