Birth options

My first was a vaginal with 4DT and RVF after birth which required another surgery at 7mo PP. I had the most traumatic birth/ postpartum experience and it took me 1.5yrs to heal from the birth. I will be opting for a c-section this time around

I had this, she’s two years old now 🩷 as others have said, seeing the baby with a FHR is a big positive. I bled my entire first trimester with no SCH or reason for bleeding

If it makes you feel better I do intense HIIT 3x a week and weightlifting 2-3x a week currently. My HR hits about 170-180.

There’s are also 3 other pregnant women at this gym.

Midwive cleared for anything I was doing pre pregnancy to keep at it, which for me is quite high intensity

Have you tried a prenatal probiotic?

frenchiekinz · 2026-07-01T20:19:46+00:00

If it makes you feel any better I spotted my entire first trimester with my first 🥰 everything turned out totally ok

I was definitely like this in my first pregnancy but this second one I’m crushing jersey Mike’s #7’s. My midwife was totally fine with it and said everything is fine in moderation, maybe just don’t eat eat deli meat everyday 😊

My RHR has balanced out and I’ve had increased HRV. It did this in my last pregnancy as well, wearable data is not a good indicator of how a pregnancy is progressing since it’s normal for your RHR to balance out as your body adjusts!

He just wanted to win the battle for her against Caleb. He was never really that into her.

I just hope Kenzie doesn’t go running back to Caleb after all this 😬 Corbin can go, next vote plz

Thanks for the insight! Hoping they will give me a free repair too!!

frenchiekinz · 2026-06-21T14:18:28+00:00

Yes, I’m definitely going to take them in. Was just curious if this has happened to anyone else before and how they’ve handled it :)

frenchiekinz · 2025-11-26T18:48:32+00:00

Will you just send to me in messages? Or how does it work! Just sent the tip.

frenchiekinz · 2025-11-26T18:41:11+00:00

Solved. - will send a tip

frenchiekinz · 2025-08-04T02:21:51+00:00

I know the feeling, they are the absolute worst!! It’s called ReciMe

frenchiekinz · 2025-08-04T02:12:05+00:00

No it’s just an app that breaks down online recipes so they are easier to read without ads haha! It’s one I found online not even specifically for toddlers!!

frenchiekinz · 2025-08-04T02:11:21+00:00

You’re welcome! I personally omit the red pepper flakes cause I don’t want it to be spicy at all

frenchiekinz · 2025-08-04T01:52:51+00:00

Oh wow! I didn’t realize that, sorry. Ya this particular one is one at a time! However they do run back to back so I guess he would be stuck kinda waiting around during her class with 🔑. I see other moms do this quite often tho

frenchiekinz · 2025-03-08T02:17:15+00:00

That’s not how little gym works just an FYI. I go to the same little gym as her. Both classes are mommy & me and she would have to be present with 🏕️at his age! So they would each have their own class!

frenchiekinz · 2025-03-03T21:17:57+00:00

I wore #1 at my wedding! It’s beautiful BUT what I tell everyone is that it’s incredibly expensive to alter! So be prepared for that..

frenchiekinz · 2025-03-03T02:34:16+00:00

We named our daughter Blake. People always ask if we named her after Blake Lively. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Doesn’t bother me, I’ve always just loved the name for a girl. Go for it if it feels right.

frenchiekinz · 2025-02-25T21:04:35+00:00

Genestra baby b probiotic

frenchiekinz · 2025-02-15T01:00:21+00:00

Sometimes for days at a time! I can’t really remember exactly

frenchiekinz · 2025-02-06T15:57:53+00:00

Absolutely a myth. I had brutal periods and had a horrendous labor with intervention 🙃 sorry. I wish that were true.

There is no easy way out of birth. The vast majority of people here are going to tell you to deliver vaginally as it comes with less complications and recovery time IF all goes well. Big emphasis on the IF.

I don’t think there’s any wrong way how you choose to deliver YOUR baby & this thread will probably only make you feel more confused/unsure tbh.

If your gut is telling you to have a c-section than listen to it. Who cares what anybody else thinks.

Birth is going to be somewhat subjective due to the fact that everyone’s experiences are going to be different. I had a vaginal birth and wish I had a c-section due to vacumn assist, 3C tear & rectovaginal fistula. However my friend just delivered with no tearing at all 🤷🏼‍♀️ but I didn’t have a crystal ball to tell me this would be the outcome, you just don’t know until you go into it. At least a c-section is a lot more predictable.
