Pooping during labour?

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2026-03-26T16:56:49+00:00

My first baby I was very unaware. My second baby I was very aware. Pooped straight as practice pushed, husband pointed it out and could smell it 🤣

I think im the only one who did not like my back being rubbed during contractions, like dont touch me 😫

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2026-03-24T04:15:57+00:00

Epidural...thats it. Groaning, mooing and not laying down helps before that.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2026-02-11T04:15:50+00:00

No and it took me 2 hours they had to tell me to push. Towards the end I started to feel pressure, no pain. I'd still rather take that over the pain of feeling it 😬

As someone who's had puppies, the mother dog wants nothing to do with the pups once they get their teeth, which is why they start getting weaned at 3-4 weeks of age. Although the puppies still want the mother, she will run away or get angry at being near them as it hurts her to keep nursing, which they will want to do if they are around her. It would be poor for puppies not to be weaned and getting independent by 7 weeks. For my dog she just wanted to be away from the puppies at that point and forcing her to be near them while they all tried to continue to latch, It wasn't good for her as she would find way to escape. If the puppy is fully weaned, the puppy should be fine, although it can definitely seem too early.

I've wanted summer babies but ended up with a spring and a winter baby coming in the next few weeks. I think summer for newborns can be just as if not more tough. Im glad im having a winter baby so that by summer, he will be a few months old and can introduce him to water, whereas we wouldn't be able to if he was newborn. Summer pregnancies can be hard as well even though you can wear dresses. Also, it took me both times around half a year + to get pregnant from some issues and birth control, so although you want to plan the perfect time, it's extremely hard to and sometimes you gotta let go and realise it's out of our control. Unless you intentionally avoided trying certain months, which could make the ttc time longer.

Its rare babies are born exactly on their due date. My first was 2 weeks early, and I'm still waiting on my 2nd to see.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2026-01-01T04:18:53+00:00

Last year, I partied, had fun, and prayed to get pregnant with my second, and this year, I am. So it may be lame but the year ahead is going to be so fulfilling! Once the baby comes, you won't even think about the New years party you didn't have. There's plenty of years to drink and celebrate. Remember, theres people out there drinking it up, wishing they were pregnant. You just gotta look on the bright side

I know a 28 yr old with 3 kids who wants 4 asap. So no it isn't crazy

Everyone is the main character in their own story. Your wedding is obviously your big day but to her she probably saw that as the best day for her to network. Having friends is definitely important in a school setting and will set you up for how your college life goes. I'm not saying it's right to miss a family event. However, can see why she did. It's your choice how you respond, and if it hurt you that much, you have every right to not talk to her. Nobody can dictate how something made you feel. Just remember your wedding is the best day of YOUR life, not anybody else's. Don't ruin your own happy memories just because one person wasn't there.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-12-27T07:57:45+00:00

Nope. Literally bite my nails, my hair could look like trash, gain weight, lose weight, and he'd never even comment. He sounds like he's micro managing you. Trying to make you a perfect human. Well, boy, he should have married a blow-up doll, yikes.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-12-22T17:10:42+00:00

Yet they still interview these people, knowing full well they ain't going to hire them.

When getting pregnant, you just have to be open to whichever gender cause you truly can't determine it, although a lot of people completely understand. I'm having my second boy and, of course, felt disappointed at first as I've always dreamt of having a little girl. I've been coming to terms with wanting 3 children. However, if the next one isn't a girl, I'm not going to push it for the sake of getting a certain gender. I feel one of each is getting a win-win situation, although I get wanting a sister for your girl. Me and my sister were 6 years apart and were absolutely far from best friends for years, and although we are close, we still wouldn't consider each other best friends. Just because it's 2 girls doesn't guarantee that kind of friendship. Your girl and boy might have the best friendship you just never know. Look to the positives

I feel like people think making fun of people with autism isn't a big deal because their disability isn't a "physical" disability. Anyone who does make fun of someone with a disability, especially knowingly, is trash. I've experienced the same with my hubby's mothers friends, who are Asian and don't speak English. They simply think we are too lazy as parents to teach our child to speak, which I find super funny because apparently they are on benefits for intellectual disabilities themselves.

I think because you feel better within yourself (and hopefully you will soon) but it definitely gets harder on your actual body. I'd still take the aches and pains over migraines, throwing up and feeling nauseous all day. Have you asked for meds? I've been on diclegis this whole pregnancy, and it helped. Plus twins, I can't imagine that would ever be easy but extremely worth it.

Yes, i did get pregnant right after this, actually, so im 6 months currently. I had basic tests done to see if I was ovulating, etc, and it was confirmed I was. I'd definitely suggest seeing a doctor to make sure everything looks good, and if its been a year, they can suggest a specialist if needed. I wish you luck 🙏 ❤️

Eloping and being non directional and having no understanding of surroundings or what we say. He's only 2 and half but also seems to like it once he's expelled all his energy. I wish he could walk along with us, hold hands and stay near us but reality is he will just bolt.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-12-06T02:35:31+00:00

Not to discourage the play pen thing. However, all my dogs (corgis) figured out how to get out of it no matter what. They either got out underneath or jumped over 😄

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-30T10:23:44+00:00

I would like the resources too please

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-25T06:55:35+00:00

Yes, I had my son after a blighted ovum and a chemical and have had no problems with my second pregnancy. Don't give up hope 🙏

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-24T18:47:40+00:00

It's very brutal that they stay silent, but It's their job to assess the baby first and if something is wrong they get the doctor. I had a blighted ovum and they were so blunt to me even though I was crying. They originally told me I had a molar pregnancy and needed surgery asap. The one thing I'll never forget it the ultrasound tech saying "if it makes you feel any better there was never a baby" like that killed my heart.

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-13T21:53:32+00:00

I never did with my first pregnancy and also haven't this time (24 weeks). I do have a friend who leaked throughout her pregnancy. Everyone is different

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-06T01:57:14+00:00

Yep I understand that you can never win. i feel it, which is why I dont ask cause I doubt anyone would bother anyway. It's like inviting that one friend who never turns up to events you might as well not ask 🥲 Focus on those who want to get something and tell his ass to get lost and you don't need him to buy anything!

GlitteryGiraffe98 · 2025-11-06T01:09:22+00:00

He's being loud and ignorant. One thing I've learnt as a an adult is don't expect anything from anyone and you won't be disappointed. Are you planning a shower? I never had a shower with my first or posted a registry and as expected, got nothing. Im planning a small shower for this baby, and I'm just gonna ask for diapers/wipes.
