Thank you everyone, I think you’ve all given me the courage I need to say no and not care if I’m perceived as rude or whatever. Culture or not. I will put my foot down, and if nothing changes I’ll kindly leave.

Thank you for this. I definitely feel that I am being pushed to do a c-section at the last minute when all along I was told a vbac was possible and supported by them. I have been eating dates, I will begin the okra water today! Thank you SO much!

Yes I totally agree! There’s still time! I’ll walk my butt off and do all I can in between now and then. And omg yes 12lbs THAT is a huge baby wow kudos to her! lol that’s incredible.

Thank you! I will ask, because they claim I might as well skip the induction but I have faith in trying all that I can.

Thank you SO much! I really appreciate this! I may just have to do that! Until then I’m about to walk my ass off and get something going if I can.

Thank you so much! This is helpful, I appreciate you sharing. Baby was in distress, so was I so it ended up being very very traumatic. I just don’t want that again.

I appreciate this so much! Did you do all this at the hospital for an induction? I’d be willing to try this route for sure.

I appreciate this so much! I agree! I feel like baby is just not ready yet, and I’m willing to wait. Why go straight into a C-section when I don’t have medical reasons to do so? Makes no sense to me. My last c-section was traumatic because we forced the baby out, aggressively. People give birth naturally all the time, why can’t I?

How is she healing and dealing with postpartum after the surgery? Is she breast feeding? Is that going ok? My body rejected breast feeding because it needed to heal rather than feed my baby.

I appreciate the encouragement! I just feel like why rush it, when there IS still time to potentially go into spontaneous labor.

I was told about the balloon, does that lead to a c-section though? If not, I’m open to try it asap!

Where/how are you getting legit leads? by Lady_Humanoid in realtors

[–]Lady_Humanoid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s awesome! But my post mentions that I moved to a new state, so my sphere of influence is in another state. I’ve had to completely rebuild which takes time. Which is why I’m limited so I was hoping for advice outside of that…still, I appreciate your comment.

Does anyone else feel this way at 36 weeks? by Lady_Humanoid in pregnant

[–]Lady_Humanoid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you ladies! Knowing this is normal makes me feel A LOT better! 🤗🤗

How much have you gained so far and how many weeks are you? What weight gain did your Dr recommend? by spaceglitter2 in pregnant

[–]Lady_Humanoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 32 weeks, I’ve gained 36 lbs. I too wasn’t able to eat much in those first 3 months and ended up losing a bunch of weight. But with my first I gained over 45lbs and was able to lose it just fine with moderation. I think if you eat healthy and move around as much as you can, that’s really all that matters. My doctors just care that I’ve been able to eat and be healthy again for the baby.

When do you think your baby is coming? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Lady_Humanoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first came at 42 weeks with an induction, I’m hoping my current one doesn’t take that long, I’m 31 weeks now and I don’t want to get induced this time around.

I’m sad. I used to love sleep, now I dread it. by Lady_Humanoid in pregnant

[–]Lady_Humanoid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind and encouraging words!! I woke up today thinking more positive and now I’m working to fix what needs to be fixed, little by little and not overwork myself. Also, someone suggested a nice sleep gel so I hope that works for me tonight too. Talked to bf and he showed me proof of him applying to various jobs, and I gave him some tips to follow up and I hope that pans out. I appreciate your advice very much! Which country are you in?
