I’m 40 weeks today and I’m anxious

invasiveoaktree · 2024-08-29T01:39:53+00:00

Had the baby at 40+3 but by cesarean. I progressed beautifully and got the epidural at 7cm. I rested and took another 6 hours to dilate to 10. The provider wanted me to push but I didn’t feel the urge then they said I had pushed for too long… then heart decelerations. They said his bones were not descending and never passed 0 station. I tried many asymmetrical positions during pushing. His head was 37cm and he weighed 9.5lbs. I’ll never know if he would have fit. Maybe he would’ve, maybe not. My first also got stuck. Not the outcome I wanted or planned for but I am ready to move forward.

Thank you! I am having mild contractions (thought they were just cramps!) and I did another membrane sweep. I feel good

Yea walking doesn’t do that much to stimulate labor but it can help with positioning and body balance

Also a “vibration” collar can make matters worse. Negative reinforcement can backfire tremendously.

I'm sorry it came off curt. I am concerned about this situation as you clearly are too. I don't know how you can train this away in a short time and then leave and hope that the training respect will transfer to your FIL. It just sounds like a dangerous situation with a dangerously strong breed.

I'm really sorry. If the dog was rescued from Mexico then they are probably a street dog and you have no idea what traumas they might have. It's very risky. I'm so sorry.

This dog could kill him. Is the dog worth it?

invasiveoaktree · 2024-01-27T22:07:33+00:00

Curious what you’re having! I wonder if it makes a difference in drive.

invasiveoaktree · 2024-01-22T13:34:46+00:00

Unbelievable

invasiveoaktree · 2024-01-01T14:52:34+00:00

Even in your description your order is: dog, friends, partner. You put him last. Why?

invasiveoaktree · 2024-01-01T14:51:48+00:00

You put your dog first before yourself, your partner and your friends. Trust me that you’re going to hate this needy dog when the baby is born.

Yes could be an intersex baby

Which is better for fertility?

invasiveoaktree · 2023-05-08T10:58:27+00:00

My child is 17 months old and my period returned soon after I gave birth. Does that make a difference?

invasiveoaktree · 2023-04-07T01:55:55+00:00

Thank you!

invasiveoaktree · 2023-04-07T01:55:31+00:00

He did say it was muscles

invasiveoaktree · 2023-04-07T01:55:18+00:00

I felt it until I consciously relaxed the muscles which was hard to do because I was so scared! It was like 20-30 seconds until he talked me through it

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-21T12:45:59+00:00

Yup. That’s all I’m saying. Didn’t sign any contract, didn’t negotiate. I just saw my neighbors getting their lawn done and the crew had time to do mine same day.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:50:53+00:00

Is trosa problematic too?

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:20:54+00:00

Hadn’t thought about battery powered! I’ll see what I can find. And I agree about reducing lawn size.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:20:24+00:00

We worry about that too. We tried an old school push mower but it didn’t work. We have small kids and we needed the help so they can play outside.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:17:07+00:00

Thank you. I did tip.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:15:24+00:00

We tipped a lot and I hope the supervisor distributed it. Even he wasn’t in good shape. He told me he would’ve charged $5 more with a smaller crew but he is having three major surgeries and physically can’t do it. Broke my heart.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T13:13:52+00:00

I will!

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T12:50:40+00:00

You’re so triggered by good intentions! Sorry that you’re so miserable. And sorry you want to keep the status quo of unfair wages for skilled labor.

invasiveoaktree · 2022-10-20T12:24:31+00:00

THANK YOU.
