I'm 35 and a mom of 3 (12, 8, and 4). All 3 were unmedicated births ( I'm terrified of needles). The first labor was 2 hours, and my water broke at 37 weeks. The second was 1 hour and the third 8 hours, and they followed their older sister foot steps and arrived during the 37th week as well. All my kids sat low, so i ended up with a prolapse after my third baby. It was a very uncomfortable year until I found a doctor that would do the hysterectomy. So my surgery was a year ago, and I'm so happy that I had it done.

Oh gosh. Nothing killed me as a new mom as much as not being able to breastfed my babies. My first had such a difficult time latching and I didn't make enough. I was terrified to leave the house with her in case she got hungry bc it was a hassle for her to latch and I didn't think I could do that without being completely exposed. And like most of us she was cranky when she was hungry. I was so worried if I couldn't settle her someone was going to call CPS on me 😅 So my PPA was doing great too 🤦‍♀️
