My first was born 3 hrs after i got to the hospital but by the time they were ready to give me epidural it was too late, they told me i had to start pushing. So i had her natural and drug free but I didn’t enjoy it at all. I had to be on oxygen the whole time bc I couldn’t catch my breath. I thought i was gonna pass out!

I would definitely make sure that the induction is actually medically necessary first. As long as it isn't you shouldn't need to go that route. Also make a birthing playlist or try doing something that you enjoy. That will distract you from being nervous/scared and will help your body relax which will ultimately make your labor easier and not take so long.

@michealayoung34693 жыл бұрын
@@krisskrossing3182 Yes. Totally make the playlist. I'm only 10 weeks and already have one made. That is definitely not a reason to induce. Induction can put so much stress on you and baby on top of the normal stress from labor. After my induction with my son at 40+6 I definitely wish I would have stood up more for myself, but unfortunately my doctor made me feel like that was my only option and the only real help that I had was going back home soon (2,000 miles away). I was induced on June 4th, had him on the 7th, and his great grandmother went back home on the 11th so I only got four days of help. I think that if she lived closer or could have stayed longer I would have told my doctor that I wanted to stick to my original birth plan.

My best friend's midwife got upset with myself and her partner for joking with her and making her laugh during labour. She almost sent my friend home from the hospital because in her good mood, she was so good at masking her contractions that the midwife thought we were literally distracting her too much and her body was essentially stopping her labour because she wasn't focused enough. My friend was pissed. She did NOT want us to stop joking around with her, and it was only when the midwife checked her cervix and realized she was 5cm dilated, that she accepted that my friend was going nowhere. I'm 35 weeks, and I suffer from chronic pain, so although I'm a FTM, I know that my coping mechanism for pain (and many other things) is making jokes and laughing, so I told my spouse that I will definitely want to joke around and laugh. Now I will do so with the added knowledge that laughter will help me release oxytocin and will actually help me labour, so if anyone tells my spouse to stop, Ima fire back with knowledge!

I'm not sure if I missed this, but I don't recall you mentioning that Pitocin totally disrupts the natural hormonal Oxytocin process. So all the things you describe until that drip is turned off don't apply. AS I was typing this you mentioned it a bit...but made it seem like you can have both Oxy and Pit flowing, from what I have previously understood once you have Pit going it totally negates the Oxy and the receptors and all the cascading natural hormonal process stop. This also disrupts the peak of Oxy at birth which is 30x higher in an unmedicated birth than in a medicated one interfering with bonding. Could you clarify?

All your ideas for relaxing sound great but I’ve never been “allowed” to do ANY of this. They tell you to change into a hospital gown and lay flat on the bed with the monitor on. Then they leave. And if you move and the monitor isn’t positioned right then they come in and give you dirty looks and tell you to lay still on your back. Then they leave again. You’re in a room with florescent lights alone. I guess I just don’t have good enough medical insurance to have anything better here. What you’re describing sounds so much better.

I never realized that being born is painful for the baby

We don’t 100% know what they feel. It might just be a firm squeezing, but they do receive endorphins too!

I'd like to see a video from you about orgasmic birth. It's a really interesting concept that I'm not interested for myself but I want to learn more about it. Birth is a sexual experience after all, it kinda makes sense.

It totally does make sense, although I’ve never witnessed it occur.

This makes so much sense why I was able to be so calm when giving birth in my car. Amazing!
