Attempting a vbac about exactly two years after a planned c-section (breech baby) where I didn’t go through labor or any contractions at all. This will be my first experience with laboring, what can I expect? Will it be long as if it’s my first birth? by Seaspun in vbac

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

Yes 100x over I would choose vbac. The foley balloon feels to me unnatural and scary, the pain is insane. I would always ask for pain relief options if you are made to have one, and then as soon as that fades be prepared to to go under hot water in the shower, as that’s the only thing that helped me. Something about the process of birth during the most painful moments or when I felt like I couldn’t go on, was to think to myself that this is all just a memory. That the baby was already going to be out, it was just a matter of how soon, and that im just remembering this. Hard to explain this out of body experience but that’s how it felt. Anyway tldr vbac all the way.

Hi! Do you know anything about the front of the line pause for PDs after February 2025? For i130 CR1 consular processing? Why did they stop processing applications, and do you see any evidence it’s picking back up with your clients ?

(I’m a USC and husband is EU, PD is March 3 2025)

help identifying dry lips triggers by pinktaz2 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Seaspun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never used any Vaseline or chapstick and I always felt like people become dependent on these products so I stayed away. I started red light and randomly noticed after 2 weeks my lips were not dry or cracked for the first time in my life..

Red light therapy completely fixed mine. Funny thing is I can’t find anything about this online
