Hi there! I just wanted to let you know (in the odd hope that you may read this) that the reason you can still push and move around with the epidural is because it is specifically a dorsal root ganglion block. For simplicity's sake, you can picture the dorsal aspect of your ganglion (essential a mass of nervous tissue) coming out of the "top" of your spinal vertebra like a dolphin's dorsal fin and the ventral aspect coming out of the "bottom" of the vertebra. The dorsal (sensory) ganglia travel back to the brain to tell you that you are experiencing pain, whereas the ventral (motor) ganglia relay signals sent by the brain (e.g. you telling your leg to kick). Hence, you are pain free below where the dorsal root block is placed. I'm just a mere veterinary student panicking over my exams and I figured this wasn't the worst way to procrastinate. I love your content and how scientific your research presentation is. I hope I helped or at least piqued your interest. Cheers!

My sister-in-law nursed all three of her kids until they were about two. But she only pumped for the first one because she said she hated feeling like a cow. It was one of the most personal things I've ever heard her say. It also benefit did the relationship because for the first year the kids for needed to be with her all the time so she could feed them. Whereas with the first baby even though she wanted to have him with her all the time she was forced to go back to work quicker and other slightly not is awesome things as a new mother. As I'm not a mom I have no idea but I am so fascinated with these birth stories.

If hair loss is something that may affect your emotional wellbeing or self-esteem, you may want to try swapping liquid shampoo for shampoo bars or another artisanal option (i make a liquid version as well, but bars are still my favorite because it’s also zero waste and they last longer) because they honestly do help a lot in getting that thick, luscious main from actual nutrition of your scalp that no other product can imitate. You can also do Castor oil scalp massages once or twice a week but having a newborn simply replacing the shampoo sounds more realistic to me 🖤

My baby #2 also was sunny side up! He was by far my most difficult delivery and was my biggest! And he was the only one I didn’t get an epidural with 😱 I think my husband might have some PTSD from witnessing this birth 🤦🏻♀️ The nurse had to power drive my stomach with her elbow to get him out and he had scary decels as well. The doctor said we need c section now but the nurse did her wrestlemania move on me and got him out! Lol congrats! You look great!!

As a healthcare provider I feel that it's important to tell you that it is actually very dangerous that they left you 4 hours alone without somebody coming in and checking on you. Things like hemorrhaging can happen very quickly and often before a new mother even realizes that it's happening. This is exactly why we have to check on patients at least once an hour to ensure all patients are safe and breathing. Even midwives who typically leave after baby is born ensure that you have somebody in the house with you in case of an emergency

My grandson was 4 lbs 12 oz when he was born. I remember helping my daughter feed him every two and a half hours. It was really hard on her not to be able to trust that the baby would wake up on his own to eat. He just didn't care about eating. That is crazy hard to deal with. She was always stressed out and only sleeping for two hours at a time since it took a good 15 to 30 minutes to get baby to wake up only to have him fall asleep while eating. I definitely have a lot of sympathy for new mothers and fathets stressed out about their littles not eating enough.

I’m so glad it all went okay over all! I’m glad tiny baby is healthy. I hate hospitals so much and I’m just afraid of needing an IV and not being able to move and having nurses constantly in and out of the room and I’m so afraid of needing a C-section and stuff like that. All to say that’s just me, I know that these are great things in general and some people need it which is absolutely fine. I had my first baby in a birth center with no drugs or interventions. It was just a nurse and a midwife and it was great. And we got to leave after just a few hours and got to sleep in our own bed and everything. It was all really nice 👍

I just came across your videos and first off, I appreciate how well versed you are in so many things! And not in a "I have Google" way. I don't know your background, but it appears you know how to source information well! Anyway, I had to comment re: baby weight loss and IV fluids. I'm a L&D RN, and based on what you've described in your birth story, you probably received quite a bit of extra IV fluids a) to properly dilute the penicillin to prevent discomfort (though this in and of itself would likely be negligible) b) because tiny baby kept having heart decelerations. Other than position changes, giving a volume of extra fluid through the IV would be the next treatment to help bring baby's heart rate back up. Based on the frequency of the decelerations you've described, I expect you received a good bit of extra fluid. This certainly doesn't explain prolonged weight gain issues, but an interesting consideration, nonetheless!

Wow I would have been so scared with the baby’s heart rate dropping. Glad they nurse and doctor were so chill about it to keep you calm.

Ugh I had the same issue with my son. I had such horrible blisters I dreaded nursing him, and the only way I could nurse him at first was using the nipple shield. It saved my nips, and I was able to nurse him for over 2 years. All that matter is that you’re feeding your baby, so don’t beat yourself up. Congrats!

I had a hysterectomy last summer and brought a whole bunch of food. They had a vegan menu and it was so nice. It was really good. Sometimes they gave a side dressing that wasn't vegan but for the most part it was really good. I was so surprised.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I don't have any kids, but I've also going through some major hair loss this past year (not sure the cause yet, possibly my depression but idk for sure?) and trust me, I've had the same thoughts on just shaving my head and getting some wigs 😂but I also could not pull off a shaved head and treasure my hair so much so its definitely been tough. I hope your hair grows back though and if not, we'll both just get some awesome wigs!

Wait in the US you stay overnight for a normal birth? Here in the Uk you’re in and out same day. You’re in for a couple of hours after birth for monitoring but it does feel like an in and out conveyer belt
