I have a 4 year old and a cesarean my first birth and now doing a completely natural birth. I absolutely agree choosing your provider is the most important. I had a terrible experience with my daughters ob and now have an amazing ob who is completely supportive and I feel taken care of. Thank you for your video it raised alot of points for me.

[@asmaamin1183]

Best video for the day as I’m watching tons of video about normal delivery prep! I’m 37 weeks pregnant now! I also have a toddler so definitely loved the idea of postpartum care plan! Thanks Kaira ❤️

[@cocorivera9711]

Have you popped yet? If not, good luck!!!!😉

[@MultiDaisy1995]

Thank you so much! The whole video was very helpful, but especially the part about a postpartum care plan. I hadn’t thought any further than preparing freezer meals. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Good idea

Hey Miss Kira! Do you have any videos about birthing multiples? We are having twins in March 💜

[@unraveledmotherhood]

These are great tips, as someone who couldn't afford and didn't want extra people in the room I just wanted to encourage any mamas that you can do it. If you want a natural unmedicated labor in the hospital you can do it! I can only speak from my experience but I was able to do it 3x hopefully the next one (if we get another child) will be a home birth but if you want the tips I used for a natural hospital birth I recently shared a video on this ❤️ congrats mamas!

I only had access to four providers, and none of them have good stats. Two of them told me I would be a c-section outright. The one I’m with now (at 31 weeks) will hopefully be better

[@4theFaith]

I totally regret having spent $$$ on Bradley Method classes. They were such a waste. Ended up with a cs anyway. :(

[@TeaCup1940]

Not in all places you can choose your doctor. Not all families have enough money to pay for a doula. Not all doulas are helpful. Not very realistic tips...

Im on my 31st week watching ur videos makes me less nervous thank u so much 😉😇

[@yorkienme2268]

So upset for my Daughter! Her one doctor wanted to induce at 38 weeks. She talked them into 39 weeks. It could be a bigger baby. Monday she went to L&D and by 9pm induction started. (The particular drug could cause hypertension) By Tuesday afternoon there was 80% effacement, 0 dilation, -1 station. By Tuesday evening her blood pressure is high and they gave a medication for that and they used a balloon to attempt dilation. Baby went sunnyside-up. Here we are after 2am Wednesday morning and she's exhausted, in pain, little progress and wants an epidural. Our hospital "pandemic" guidelines are only 1 support person. This is her 1st birth. How can these induced births even BE a good thing??!

[@unraveledmotherhood]

Oh my goodness that is awful. This is such a disservice to these mamas.

[@pandemmonium]

Always excited to see you post! Im from Southeast Texas and an aspiring mama looking to conceive in the next few years. Really looking forward to a natural birth experience, preferably a birth center or home birth

[@fiordilijika86]

I’m 40 weeks pregnant and my provider is constantly recommending induced labor because of my high 4,11 and baby size estimated to be 8,8 lb...I would really prefer to wait for the birth to start naturally but every time after consultation I’m in panic because of what they say....any advice or similar experience?

[@Iamonlyadoll]

I just turned 37 weeks today. I'm 35 yrs old, which I guess is high risk... Even though my pregnancy has been totally healthy throughout!! My OBs are wanting to induce at 39 weeks, no later than 40wks+6days. I want to let him come naturally!! I've heard awful things about pitocin and would very much like to avoid it! I hope things work out for you!! I hope we are not bullied into decisions and can stand our ground!! Good luck mama!!

I'm 30 weeks pregnant with baby number 4. I have had 3 natural births all shoulder dystonia. This time my midwife suggested an induction due to big babies 4kg and up. What is your opinion about in. I have mixed feelings

[@deee9605]

I am 35 weeks and have had to switch providers because of travelling to different countries. I have realized that I am not confortable with the provider I have now who will oversee my birth. He lacks empathy, can I still change now or is it too complicated at this stage?

[@shekinahwilliams622]

What if you can’t hire a doula because you can’t afford it.

[@hannahb7038]

Then I'd say the next best thing a lady could do would be having a supportive and helpful person by her side if possible. And it definitely would help more that they're at least decently educated about birth, medicated or not, regardless if they've personally had a baby themselves.

[@Anonymous-mv9te]

I’m weighing my options for my next pregnancy. My first pregnancy was great - no complications. But I had an unexpected c-section with my first baby 6 months ago due to his head was facing as though he was trying to get out face first(not sure of the term for that). I can go back to the midwifery group at the hospital where I went the first time or I can choose a midwife that does at home births. I’ve not had a consultation yet with her, but initial phone call and brief explanation of first delivery, she seemed willing to help me with home birth & wanted to schedule consultation. I’m not sure if it is wise for me to try at home, but I would love to. What is your opinion?

[@rob-dq7sv]

The doctor I saw last appointment scheduled an indiction for 40w 2d without even saying anything first. I asked why multiple times before she gave a reason. She said because of my high bmi. I dont have any conditions related to high bmi so I am most likely going to refuse the induction. My baby is a good size everything is going great naturally.

[@Iamonlyadoll]

I'm going through a similar situation. I'm 35 which I guess is super old to be having a baby!! 😕 They want to induce but I really want him to come naturally!! I'm sorry you are being bullied!! I hope things work out for us!!! ❤️🌻 Good luck mama!!

[@wendypuello2926]

@@Iamonlyadoll 35 is not super old for having a baby… I don’t know why you think like that

[@Iamonlyadoll]

@@wendypuello2926 because I was constantly reminded that I was considering a "geriatric pregnancy" it was brought up a lot during my pregnancy. I ended up just scheduling an induction. Two days before the scheduled induction they freaked out about my blood pressure (which had been fine my whole pregnancy and only spiked at 39 weeks) and they bullied me into inducing two days earlier than planned. Then when the induction didn't work for after two and a half days (because the nurses were awful and borderline abusive and I was not comfortable or supported) they gave me a c section for "failure to progress" Thankfully it's over and I have a beautiful healthy little boy!! And I can learn from my traumatic experience and hire a doula if there is a next time. Would have been nice to have someone to advocate for me against the abusive nurses!

[@wendypuello2926]

@@Iamonlyadoll wao That’s sad that you have to go through that process I do believe you because my sister went through almost the same process having her little boy four years ago in Orlando fl hospital, everything was ok with her pregnancy but when she was 38 weeks she had the same situation you had with her blood pressure and got induced but that didn’t work and she ended up having a c Seccion, she was 31 when that happened, I which everything was different for her and also for you… Im pregnant currently my daughter second name will be April as well 😊

I wish there was a choice for me and my provider. Without driving over an hour I only have one office that my insurance will cover.

[@CajunStork]

It’s worth the drive!

[@hobbyhive]

Very helpful, I had my midwifery stripped away from me due to Australia's stringent Gestational Diabetes (much more stringent than the rest of the world with how they diagnose, and thus women like me who would not meet the standard in any other country in the world are forced to go through the system and not allowed to have a midwifery based birth centre) standards, and the medicalization that is being pushed on me despite being 'only just' in Australian standard GD diagnosis is driving me nuts. I'm pregnant, not sick, and an arbitrary number to force more women into the system so more women can be monitored for research purposes rather than actual medical needs to me is reprehensible and unscientific medical practice. I'm trying to learn how to be more assertive so I can say no to unnecessary treatments, but a doula may be something I will look into investing in to help advocate for me in labour.

[@maxtecy55]

I regret hiring a dula:( she didn’t come to support me till after I delivered via c section 28h later because she said I wasn’t in “active labor” (is that even a valid reason for a Dula?) so I had to go through the whole list of interventions after my water broke at home and I went to the hospital. It was super disappointing to hear her say that over the phone while I was being pumped with petocin and struggling with contractions that never lead to anything. Then due to baby’s heart rate going up I was pretty much left with no choice but to go with c-section. This time around I am educating myself so I can advocate for myself better and make better choices.

[@CajunStork]

It sounds like she wasn’t a good doula. Don’t discredit all doulas because of one bad experience though!

[@crystalchili3823]

That doula went beyond their scope. They aren’t able to say if you are in active labor or not.

[@sfworld4368]

Hi... Plz tell me that height is the factor in normal delivery or c section.... Coz here some doctors say that short heighted women can't give normal birth.... Is it true?... Can 4'11 heighted woman give normal delivery?

[@CajunStork]

I would never recommend a woman receive a c-section simply because she is 4'11. Please seek a second opinion in your area!

@@CajunStork There aren’t any unfortunately. She’s the only midwife in my town and even the midwives in the towns near me don’t do homebirths. They only do hospital births or birth centers. I’ve had 2 hospital births and let’s just say the only way I feel like I’ll actually get the birth I want is if I have the baby at home. I mean a birth center would be fine too, but it’s too far away.

For those eligible for midwifery care, what, in your opinion, is the furthest that is safest to travel to recieve midwifery care, such as at a birth center?

[@CajunStork]

I like to evaluate on a case by case basis, but usually two hours has been the furthest....mostly because of the drive for prenatal care. I am pretty good at triaging my mamas in labor though. Each midwife may have a different suggestion.
