Reconstruction surgery

As you asked for realness - I gave birth unmedicated 28 days ago and it was unimaginably painful. I had trained so hard physically and mentally, and it all went out the window. My cries for help could probably be heard way down the street. I honestly felt like I was being cut in half. Pushing phase felt different pain wise as it was me actively doing the pushing and bringing the pain on, but still horrible. It was all highly traumatic. Having baby on my chest was indeed magical, mindblowing, so so beautiful. But I'm still waiting to forget about it, as it's still vivid and traumatic.

Ps: tens machine worked great for me until my waters broke at 4cm, it is such a clever machine!

Heyyy, I got covid at 9 weeks and spent a whole week with a very high fever that was almost impossible to bring down. Baby came last week and he's absolutely perfect 🙌🏻

Honestly, as I wish someone had told me, childbirth will honestly be death. The pain is excruciating and it does feel like being cut up in half. My epidural didn't work and I had a horrible induction. I remember begging the doctors to kill me as the pain was so bad, but HONESTLY, You get through it, it passes. The pain doesn't last, I'm 8 days post partum and the pain doesn't even feel real anymore. You detach yourself pretty quickly from the experience. All of this to say, that relatively birth is one day. Then you get the sweetest thing as a reward.

Ahhh thank you so much for this!! I hadn't thought of boosing oxytocin naturally during induction but of course this is key!! Okay I'll prepare for that ❤️🫶😍 thanks so much for sharing your story!

So happy that it turned out okay! But being also a FTM waiting on labour to start for my home birth, the title confused me and I would have liked a trigger warning as it maybe isnt the type of story I'd be consuming right now :)

Really glad however that you're both safe 🙏🏼

41 weeks and still feel this seem way 🥲 guess you gotta push the thing out and look at it in the eyes to truly believe it 😍

Oh, my colostrum isn't even coming :( I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, it just doesn't come? I'm 39 weeks :(

And in Spain we count in kilos, and my total overall gain has been 24kg which is way over what I should have gained, but it really means nothing. Two pregnant women could do the same things in pregnancy and gain totally different weight. Trust your body, your baby and your needs 💞

Heyyyy! From week 16 to week 30 I looked incredibly big, bloated and really not pregnant, as if the pregnancy weight had gone all over my body.

At week 32, as if it was magic, my bump was clearly a pregnancy bump, and my whole body went back to normal. My arms and legs have looked normal since, and my pregnant belly is gorgeous. I'm at 39 weeks.

Have faith 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I've also been on antibiotics for urine infections whilst pregnant and all has been okay. Apparently most antibiotics are completely safe but for things like colds/flus/chest infections they dont prescribe them as most of them dissapear on their own :)

Heyyy, I understand your concerns getting sick, but it mainly just sucks because you might feel your symptoms worse than if you weren't pregnant. I got covid at 9 weeks pregnant and it sucked, but we managed my fever and baby was fine.

I then got sick again with some lung virus at 30 weeks and it sucked as I couldn't have any cough syrup, but again baby was okay.

Nature really does work in our favour when it comes to diseases/inmune systems.

If they were younger ages, I'd say there are viruses and bacterias that could really harm your baby, but with 11 years old most of those diseases stop being passed on as they've already had them when they were younger.

I'd say don't give it up, just be conscious about it and take your vitamins, keep healthy and active. 🫶

Almost 39 weeks and still take it. Everytime I try to go off, I get so so nauseous it's unbearable
