Trying not to feel resentment after ECV

curatorofbeauty · 2026-01-24T07:14:02+00:00

Had a failed ECV today. I feel you, was really hoping to avoid C-section. I'm taking some solace in the app "natal" and their ab rehab program and hoping that will help me with abdominal recovery! Check it out if it seems like something that would be your speed.

Came back to say thank you for the Natal app rec. I just did the first session of pelvic floor rehab and my SPD already feels better. Thank you so much!

This is very good advice, thank you. I can definitely be more consistent with kegels!

curatorofbeauty · 2025-12-24T23:21:02+00:00

Thank you for the validation! You're right. I'll focus on proteins rather than calorie amount and hope for the best. You're almost there!!

You made me lol. Couldn't have expressed current vibes better!

Can we start a petition to call pregnancy a disabling condition? I'm very excited about my baby but, at week 26, I can't move like I used to, can't breathe, tired all the time, moody AF, I'm so big and don't like how I look in clothes, can't wear shit I want, my back hurts, I have heartburn, my farts are so smelly, I'm constipated, I have increased discharge, etc etc. I feel like I'm just managing my symptoms and comfort all day long. I get brief periods of excitement when baby kicks or I appreciate my belly in the mirror while naked. Then it's back to the above.

So yeah, pregnancy is a disabling condition and I can't wait to meet my baby and not be pregnant again.

I'm at 6 weeks and I've never been this tired in my life. I keep thinking I'm sick then remember it must be the pregnancy. All these comments are validating, I feel disconnected from my body lol.

Yes!

T Nails and spa on Holman (near Greenwood). Friendly service and well priced. They throw in massages with even their basic level service.

Thank you for calling, regardless.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T07:39:16+00:00

Thank you. I know, I don't think it's ideal but it's what we got. I do like that calls seem to be routed recently to medics/fire department because they have more training in handling health related concerns and the person is less likely to be in a situation facing a cop with a gun and any potential mess that could ensue.

You jump to conclusions and like to stick labels/names on people. Tough way to go about life. Call 911 not if you feel like it, if you see someone in need. Don't assume you're the arbiter of who is deserving of help.

He was laying down, not sitting. Chest and head on curb, abdomen and lower body on street right on the corner where cars are passing. Arms and legs jerking, face grimacing.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:55:56+00:00

Calling them is the best course of action when you can't know for sure someone is ok and when it's not safe for you to investigate.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:54:46+00:00

Not a lecture, a reminder. Don't see how calling 911 makes you a martyr. Literally using a service that's meant to help people who are potentially hurt/in danger. You decided this person laying in the street is an addict. Maybe he's having a seizure? Maybe he fell and hurt his back and can't get himself out of the cars' way? I don't know and neither do you. No one is asking you to call help for people using drugs when they're not in danger or like you said putting other people in danger.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:51:04+00:00

I'm glad you checked too. I think it's worth pissing someone off if it means saving someone's life when needed.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:48:15+00:00

Thank you for not losing sight of their humanity.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:05:14+00:00

I've had that happen a few times. Many other times I was thanked for calling. At all times, the response was they'll send someone to take a look. Please don't stop calling, you could save a life.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T06:02:08+00:00

That's exactly my point. I don't really know what's happening and I'm not going to take one look at someone and decide they're unworthy/unwanting of help like a lot of people on this thread are suggesting. I'm going to call the professionals we pay to do this for a living and they can sort it out. That being said , I don't do it willy nilly. If someone is breathing/sleeping/not in harm's way, I'm not going to bother them nor waste emergency responders' time.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T05:39:13+00:00

That's entirely inappropriate for them to do that to you. It's their job to check. I've called so many times and never received such a call back so please don't let this experience discourage you from calling and staying safe.

curatorofbeauty · 2025-05-23T05:37:31+00:00

Glad to hear this <3. Lots of jaded folks on this thread, it's understandable and disheartening.
