This was my first labor and I stood and walked around the whole time. I gave birth standing up and my whole labor (start of contractions to the birth of my child) was 3 hours! It was crazy. And no tearing!!
Whoa that is awesome. Tell me your secrets please lol. I’m due with my first in June!
I had my 3rd daughter that way too! it was the easiest birth I ever had lol.
Same here! She came out in my living room! Her head with a contraction and was crying before her shoulders were even out 😆 my body literally did all of the pushing for me
Yes! I want a full video on fast birth please! Haha
Yes! Fast birth video please!
I’m 38 weeks. I’m so excited and scared. I’m tired I hope she comes before 40 weeks . I’m very uncomfortable 😢😩
Yes, do a whole video on precipitous labor! There is NOT enough content out there. Yes, it's uncommon, but for those of us that face it, it can be really stressful. I really think some of it is genetics. If your mom had quick labors, be aware it COULD happen to you too and be prepared for that possibility. Like you mentioned, I elected for an induction because of my fear of a quicker second labor this time around but then contractions started an hour before my induction time. They were immediately strong and 2.5ish minutes apart with a 3.5 hr total labor from first contraction sensation to birth. First labor was 6.5 hours (water broke first, contractions immediately strong starting 30 min after). What really helped me this time around was constantly focusing on relaxing and controlling my breath for every single contraction! My first labor was pretty traumatic due to the nurses and midwives being pretty dismissive of my labor cuz I was a first time mom. They didnt check me or get me in a room until I was already 9.5cm and I was soooooo miserable. Even more content about advocating for yourself with a care team (or how your partner can) would be good!
I’m 37 weeks and so glad I’ve been watching your videos. It is super hard to remember to speak up and be your own advocate in the pain of child birth. I wish all nurses could be trained like you. I love that you show us blooper moments at the end of your videos.
FTM here. I had a precipitous birth last Saturday! Onset of active labor to delivery in exactly 2 hours. Sunny side up. I had never heard about this before. My doctor told me husband he should learn how to deliver a baby if we have a second. :D
Yes a whole video on precipitous labor! My first came 2.5 weeks early and I had a precipitous labor. I'm slightly concerned that my next baby is going to go even faster. (P.s. he was happy and healthy, 7lbs 6oz and 19.5" long, he was just antsy for the outside world 🙂)
Yes! Please do a video on precipitous labor! My first came in less than 4 hours from first contraction and second came in 2.5 hours after my water broke.
My daughter came in 4 hours too from water breaking to birthing, and currently expecting baby #2 wondering how it will be this time
Love these videos!! So thankful for your channel. 🥰❤️
My third was SO smooth, really fast. I had a natural birth and I loved it!
Ohh this makes me more hopefully 🥰 we had my son last year and everyone kept telling us that the second is gonna be so fast... and oh man it wasn’t at all. My first was 9 hours natural, my second 42 hours after 2 weeks of prodromal labor ended up with an epidural, and hubs and I was trying to decide if we wanted to try for a 3rd 🤣
@@melissaferguson7630 lol! You might be surprised at how it goes next time! I have more tips on my new channel if you’re interested 💕
Thank you so much, this made things a lot clearer for me x
OMG! I'm in Riverside 🥰 yay! I'm so happy to know there are nurses that truly care around me. 💗 I'm about to have my 4th VBAC.
I had a precipitous birth with all 3 of my babies. An hour before my 3rd baby was born I was sitting on the floor playing with my daughters. I made it to the hospital about 25 minutes before he was born.
I had a couple of precipitous births... (Mum of seven) did you find that your body went into a kind of shock straight after? I felt extremely nauseous after, almost as if my body didn't like how quickly it all went.
@@whowantstoknow2617 I definitely felt nauseous after with my third. But I don’t know if that’s because of how fast it was or if it was because of the contractions after birth.
Ok so when I first saw you uploaded this video your thumbnail said August 2020, and I was confused. Now it says February 2020 and I'm even more confused😅 are we finally traveling back in time?? 😅😅
SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE!! 🤩
I watched SO MANY of your videos for my 1st two years ago. It was induced and super traumatic. But I'm now pregnant with my second and am right back on your channel. Because i know there were so many things I couldve made a better experience if I had remembered your advice. Will take your birth class if its online and available for Australia too. I just want this one to be a much better experience
Thank you so much for all your youtube video. Thanks to your wonderful information I was able to have a natural delivery of my twins last day of 2020.
That is so awesome! Natural twin birth?! 👏👏
Baby #1 - about 5 hours from first contraction to delivery, from the parking lot directly to the delivery room, I thought I was going to give birth on the highway
Baby #2 - induction, about 30 min from first contraction to delivery, they sent my husband home 'it is going to take hours' they said
Ugh I feel so irritated for you! Did they not see your history to assume there was a possibility it would NOT take hours?!
@@shaunagoodridge2432 Well they did and sent my husband home anyway but this is European healthcare for you. State hospitals are not very motivated to have the partner in no matter that it is legal, for them it is just one more person to mind during the labour. Anyhow, I am glad that at least they managed to react so quickly and that baby was healthy.
I'm a testiment to the fact that dramatic Hollywood-esque car rides to the hospital can happen with first babies. 😄
My first was almost born in the car because my doula kept discouraging me from going to the hospital. 😅 My active labor with her was maybe 2.5-3 hours. I pushed her out as soon as I got on the hospital bed. My husband was running every red light on the way. 😄
My second was 8 hours from first contraction to birth. Much less erratic. 😬😄
Goes to show that there is an exception to every rule. 😄
My first birth (10 weeks ago) took - from waking up at night because my water broke to holding my baby in my arms - one hour and 16 minutes ... I don’t envy long births but THAT was traumatic and so unexpected for the first baby😁
How did you do that 😧
@@miyara928 well, i didn’t have much of a choice haha
But I will say that my midwife was AMAZING... she helped me through every part of it. So IMO a good midwife can really work wonders☺️
I'm expecting my first in June and I'm doing a home water birth with a midwife so I am able to have my family present (Covid restrictions). Your videos have helped so much with answering questions I didn't even know I have. Thank you!
I have a small pelvis and I've prepping for my 6th delivery soon. It can be done! Don't let it scare you.
I’m always excited about your new videos even though I’m not pregnant anymore
Your. Hair. Looks. AMAZING. Holy shet!!!! Also, love these styles of videos! Always feels like hanging out with a friend in their living room lol
Yaaayyyyyy
Your hair looks beautiful!
I thank raspberry leaf tea for a quick 1st delivery. I'm trying it with baby 2.
Yaaaaaasss coffee and questions!!!!!!!!
A whole precipitous video pleeeease lols
Thank you so much for addressing my question! ❤️ Definitely part of my problem was not preparing for a natural birth (which I’ve been preparing for this time 🙌🏼) but I ended up having a natural birth due to my nurse refusing to let my doctor know I wanted an epidural. I had asked 5 times. I asked for any tools to cope if I was going to have to do it without an epidural, so she brought me a yoga ball and told me to “figure it out”. Then when I needed to push she told me that “she knew I’d scream myself into labor”. This is definitely a long story short of the entire experience with this nurse, but I feel better prepared for my upcoming birth experience if this happens again! Thanks again! ❤️
Um this sounds like abuse and a lawsuit
I had something similar happen. They had me sign for the epidural only to tell me it was too late right after. I'm sorry that happened to you.
As a nurse, I loved your nursing support answer. I love supporting natural childbirth, I think its awesome, but that becomes more difficult when my patient isn't prepared. Answer was very well spoken and appropriate.
💖💖💖💖💖xoxo
Thank you for giving a name to when your baby comes out with their hand on their face. That’s what my first baby did. The result for me was pushing for 2 hours (well maybe partly that and partly it was my first) and I had 3rd degree tearing.
You are awesome! God bless you!
To all wondering about what if you don't know who will be delivering your baby in a hospital: as long as your birthing partner is supporting you there, you most probably will not care. I was giving birth in a german hospital that teaches midwives, so I had more people coming in, most of the time me and hubby were on our own which was great. The doctor came only to receive the baby (and we didn't know in advance, which doctor it would be as this is normal here), but by that time I really couldn't care less who was there.
girl is glowing
First of all: Love all your content! It's so helpful to "just know".
I have one question: What do you think about using TENS machines during labor? I'm from Germany and here it doesn't seem to be a big thing yet but for example in the UK it seems more commonly used.
I had a csection because I didn’t progress at all! I stayed at 0 centimeters and I went almost two weeks over due. The doctor told me I was to small and may never deliver a baby naturally. I’ve had two vbacs since, so it’s like Sara says you don’t know until you try!:)
I'm 28 weeks tomorrow! Exactly what I needed to see.
Best of luck to you 💕 I love being pregnant
26 weeks today!
My first baby was a precipitous labor, and it was shocking. I definitely was NOT prepared for that and felt terrified the whole time because I was in so much agony so fast. I've been trying to learn as much as I can about precipitous labor since then to better understand what I went through, and now especially that I'm due in April with my second baby! From the start of contractions to delivery, it was about 3 hours with my first. I went from 6cm when we arrived to the hospital, to 10cm and involuntarily pushing and delivery within 40 minutes at most.
So yes, please do a whole video on precipitous labor! 😅 Helps us fast labor moms feel validated in our experiences. 😊
How did your second labor go? My first labor was also precipitous and I am kind of terrified of how it will be the second time around!
Thanks for all the information and 34 weeks
Thank you for touching on precipitous birth! I am one of the rare first time mamas who had a rapid first time birth a few months ago. I barely made it to the hospital and am still trying to recover from the shock. I’ve been trying to learn as much as I can by doing more research on it, but it seems so limited and not as talked about. Would love your input on an in-depth video on this topic! ❤️
Hi, I also had rapid birth 3 years ago! it was extremely shocking, it started at about 9pm.and after midnight he was out! Im expecting my second in May, and I'm so confused sometimes about how to prepare....is it going to be even faster? Or maybe completely different? We will see, I will try to be prepared for everything, because the first time I had never would've expexted it to go this fast...
Eszter - congrats your baby 2! Would love to know how your second labor went super fast too?
My labor started at 9 am and I delivered my baby by 11:36 am. Doctors can’t give me any explanations to understand medically why... if anyone has found good resources on this topic please send them my way! TIA
@@jessicashearer8326 wow, 2 and a half hours is really quick, omg! I guess it was intense from the beginning with not too many breaks?
My second birth was completely different, my first contraction came at 1 a.m. and she was born at 2 p.m.!!! I used to think that fast labor was so shocking that I would rather take it slowly...well at the end now I was completely exhausted and had nearly any strenth left for pushing stage.....But the recovery was quicker this time.
So anyways, now I have no idea how these things are, and why..... Maybe it depends on the baby's personality too, as my daughter is much calmer and a better sleeper than my 3 years-old son 🤷♀️, she was not in a hurry 🤣
but this explanation is not very scientific haha 😄
For whoever sees this and was told they had a small pelvis. My mother had a "small pelvis" and had three csections. My sister also ended up with a csection. And I as well ended up with my first being a csection. They told me because wasn't going to fit through. Welp guys what I've had 2 vbacs now!! And I'm so glad I didn't listen and I gave my body the chance to do what it needed to do! 100% all you can do is try and try again lol. Now looking back I think my first labor was rushed and they wanted baby out way before my body or baby was ready (I wasn't contracting at all without pitocin)
A printable of labor positions by mid-May would be pretty awesome... Asking for a friend.. 🙄😁
My first baby was a precipitous birth I had no signs of labor my water broke and from that first contractions to deliver was 2hrs 45mins(sunny side up)😬 it was very traumatizing because I was mentally prepared for a 24+hr birth and had no idea what was going on and why they were so painful with no breaks in between. I think people should talk about precipitous birth more because I had no idea that was even possible.
Pregnant with #2 and doing a home birth trying to mentally prepare for anything lol😅
In my country we are not allowed any family members and/or doulas, the law is strict, the medical staff is corrupt. In many cases women have died while giving birth(in the 21st century), and we have a high rate of C-sections. The whole sistem is wrong, so the changes are minimal. Good bye to my dreams of a "labour in water" delivery. Actually I need some kind of advice. The question is:
If we have a "not really nice" dr (midwife/nurse) at our labour, is it better to listen to them and do what they say (even though it can be risky) or to go with your feelings (but to make them angry. Note: in some cases they stich more than needed, and make other terrible stuff) ?
Thank you for being a support even you don't know me❤️🌹
Stay at home, why go the the hospital?
I was told my pelvis was too small and my son was stuck...They ended up using a litle vaccuum thingy on his head and i pushed as hard as i could for another couple hours and he came out!!! :) They were preparing for a c section though. Hopefully he paved the way a bit!
Can you talk about prodromal labor? I dealt with that instead of Braxton Hicks with my first pregnancy but had never heard of it prior to experiencing it.
I'm commenting on all the videos, haha, you can tell I'm counting down the weeks, hopefully 5 weeks left!
I'm not a first time parent, but I didn't labor at all with my first. It might be a little less confusing for some if people said first time laboring mom instead of first time mom/parent 😁🙂
Please. Video on fast birth. I had one and while it was a blessing disguise the moment itself was very panic inducing and unexpected.
Thanks for answering my question! I love your videos they are so informative. Another question on Braxton Hicks.. my provider has been asking if I have BH since about 14 weeks pregnant. I am now 32 weeks and have not experienced them yet. Is there a normal time frame that BH start?
I’m 39 weeks today, had a membrane sweep so hopefully I go into labor soon (this is my 4th) and I’ve never gone into labor on my own
4th times a charm! ✨ good luck!
I've got a question! How do l&d nurses get assigned their patients? Do more experienced nurses get the more high-risk patients, etc. or is it random?
With my 1st I labored for 24hrs pushed for 15 mins and my 2nd I labored for 10hrs and also pushed for 15 mins. Both of them I got induced.
Postpartum question! Can you explain diastasis recti and how to know if you have it??? Love love love you and your channel btw! 10 mos pp and have been following since my pregnancy ☺️❤️
Diastasis Recti is a separation of the abs down the middle. My 2nd was nearly 10 lbs and did a number on me! My midwife had me lie down, place my fingers on the middle of my tummy, then do a sit up to see if they were separated. I could feel a good space. It was about 3 fingers width. I’ve always been checked at my postpartum appointments, did your doctor check you for it?
@@rebeccarios2752 thank you! I was never checked at any postpartum appointments and was curious since my provider never checked or brought it up.
Hi Sarah, future coffee and questions question! I had a miscarriage last year from a subchorionic hematoma. We want to try for another baby, but we’re afraid it’ll happen again. I don’t have any of the risk factors: under 35, not a smoker, not going through IVF, etc... Is there a statistic about the reoccurrence of subchorionic hematomas? Having trouble sifting through the search results on Google. I love your videos. Thank you for all you do! 💕
You should do a video on a having a baby with a unicorn uterus. Someone close to me was just diagnosed with this and wants to have a baby.
Can you do a video about colostrum harvesting?
I HAVE to be induced at 39 weeks due to a previous precipitous birth. I live an hour from the hospital and my birth from first contraction to delivery was like an hour and a half... so my doctors insist I get induced and not go naturally because I have a very high chance of a car birth. The first one was a triage room birth... and I wasnlucky I was headed to the hospital for an un labor related reason when my contractions started halfway there. If I had waited for contractions he would have been born in the car. No doubt about it. He almost was already I was crossing my legs.
March Coffee and Questions!!!
What are your opinions on the Bradley Method? I’m trying to build up my toolbox of coping tools and am curious is you have experience and/or success with this method.
Were you in Colombia when you made this video? Horn guy is 100%
Colombian 😂
27:43 lol Sarah's reaction was cute
Love this! A couple of questions, though. If you HAD to choose between chiropractic care or a doula, which one would you recommend more for a client? 😜
Also, you said that delivery speed typically follows #3 until after baby #5. What happens then?
I’m not an expert but from my personal experience: HIRE A DOULA!!! It was the best decision we made with our first and I tell everyone who’s considering it that they should.
New hair look is gorgeous...wife is 4 days past due, and growing sad...has done walking, steps, miles circuit, birth ball, pineapple, dates and stairs and still, the predromal labor starts but never progresses. She had 6 hours of this on Sunday, 3 hours Monday, nothing Tuesday, and 2 hours last night. She is beyond frustrated...what can I do to help? Thanks for all your wisdom Sarah!
I'm very early in pregnancy (7 wks) and am torn between an OB or Midwife, Hospital or Birth Center. I know I don't need to decide right now, but my first prenatal appointment is next week with an OB. I've heard you can switch providers whenever you want to (typically
Midwife girlfriend. And then as for birth center or hospital you should go for the one you feel safest at.
Does the fast labor scenario still apply with inductions? my first was an induction because of my AMA and I'm assuming now that I'm even more AMA that they will do the same with baby 2. also on the tiny pelvis, my doctors thought because of my stature looking at me that baby wouldn't fit, during labor the doctor was shocked and even made the comment of how much space baby had when I delivered.
Ok, so labor might be shorter the second time, but what if the first time was a C section? I spent 3 hours pushing by with no progress, due to sunny side up. I really wanna try a tolac, but don’t wanna push again for 3 hours! My son was face up, so idk if that actually had anything to do with the time I was in labor, but it was about 21 hours! I’d love if you answered this in a coffee and questions!!!
With my first it was about 3 days with my daughter she was born at 34 weeks and I was induced, with my second born was 7 hrs, had one pain shot, with my third it was 3 hours I was induced, and I wanted a pain shot but by the time the nurse came back in with it it was way to late. So I didn't have a epidural or a pain shot, cuz I didnt get have time baby was already coming out, he was 8 ibs 11 oz and I'm 5 feet, and my other two were 7.3 and 4.11
Bear with me this one is long. With my first pregnancy I was told my son was head down two weeks prior to labor. Then when it was time to push they said he was head down and ready to go. I pushed for 2 hours and nothing. The doc came in and did an ultrasound and said he had turned sideways in the middle of me pushing. 3 more hours of pushing later and 2 of those hours being doc’s hands in me to help him turn 😩 he finally came out. 1st off how did that happen? 2nd, did that mean he was breeched? I never got an explanation and now I’m pregnant again and terrified of going through the same thing. P.S. the epidural never fully took and I felt everything.
Question: I am 37 weeks pregnant with my first, and had my first cervical check yesterday. I have been losing mucus and having very strong contractions this past week and my midwife said that I am already 1cm dilated. She said it’s “an open 1cm”, not tight, and that she was able to reach through my cervix and touch the top of the baby’s head. She said my cervix is still long though, and that baby’s head was not low. I am so confused. How could the baby not be low if she could touch the top of her head? Everyone in my life has told me that it looks like I’ve dropped as well. I don’t get it, have I dropped or not? How could I get even be 1cm if the baby’s head is not putting pressure on my cervix?
My first baby was 3 1/2 hours and two pushes. 3 hours in the told me I had 8-12 hours left and I begged her to check me. And she was like oh my gosh he’s ready. I had one practice push and they got me to stop. I had an epidural so I felt absolutely nothing! But I was so nervous because my blood pressure would drop from the epidural.
My first pregnancy in 5 month Target scan Baby was Diagnosed with spina bifida, please suggest how to have a healthy pregnancy next time.
Love ur Vedio Sarah!!thanks a tonne
My hospital shut down the birthing tubs recently. They say it’s due to Covid and because the rooms are made negative pressure. I was really hoping to utilize the tub to help manage labor pain without epidural. Is anyone else experiencing this around the U.S.?
FTM - 5 months PP now. From first contraction to birth I was 7hrs. From painful contractions to birth was probably 2-3 hours. I went from 5cm to 10cm in an hour 😳. I only pushed for 15 minutes.
I was bleeding quite a bit during labor - when I stood up to move from the exam room to my birthing suite I had a contraction and bled all over the floor. Is it possible that the bleeding was due to my fast labor? Or could it have been something else? Unfortunately the medical team at the hospital I delivered at didn’t give me any answers.
They told me my baby was going to be 8lbs based on ultrasound and she ended up 6lbs5oz fitting in preemie clothes lol
My first labor was only 6 hours before I started pushing so I think about it regularly that I’m going to accidentally have my second in my closet waiting for my husband to get home 😰
Don't wait for him to get home! Lol. My SIL gave birth in their car since she waited for hubby to come home and then drive all the way back to the hospital. My midwife told me to be prepared to leave my house within 15 min of water breaking or ANY contractions (6.5 hr first labor) and that worked for me. Contractions started at 805am, got out of the house about 20 min later (contractions were stopping me in my tracks so sheesh it was hard to get out of the house), babe born at 1123.
@@shaunagoodridge2432 lol seriously my worst fear is a car baby. My whole family has had csections, I’m the only one to have vaginal births so my mom thinks I’m making it up when I say women have their second babies FAST if their first ones were faster than average. I was induced too with my first and it was still that fast when usually inductions create longer labors for women 🙃
Question! We just had our second baby three weeks ago via water home birth VBAC. Both labors I dealt with psoas cramps that made pushing unbearable with my first and contributed to transferring and the subsequent csection. I had both R and L side psoas AND R side pisiformis cramps with my second. I also ended up with nerve issues in my right leg with both births, though not as bad this last time. People always talk about back labor, but never talk about this type of muscle cramp issues that end up more painful than the actual contractions! Have you seen this type of issue before and what might be causing it? I did weekly chiropractic AND massage for the last 2-3 months in hopes of mitigating this issue and it didn’t seem to change it in the least.
Can you do a video on csections? I’m hoping to do a vbac but I may have to be induced at 38 weeks so it may be out of the question according to my OB. I would like to be prepared for both a repeat csection or an induction. Thank you by the way!
I have a couple!
In my last birth my epidural didn’t work. The anaesthetist manoeuvred it several times and even redid it but I still had a large “window” of pain. Why did this happen? Could it be the same again next time? (It really impacted my mind set once I felt there was no help left)
9mths PP and breastfeeding. Is it ever too late to start pumping to build a small freezer stash? If not what would be the best way to go about it?
Im so worried that fast labour is going to happen for me this time because last time I was induced and i went from no contractions to a contraction every 90 seconds, within 20 minutes of being on Pitocin, so i really have 0 idea what labour progression actually feels like
I’ve had 2 large posterior babies. With my third he was posterior until we were able to turn him during labor. At the time both my midwife and I were unsure if it worked until he was born. Is there a way to know if you’ve successfully turned baby during labor?
I had a vacuum assisted delivery due to baby’s heart rate dropping. I asked my nurse how badly I tore and she said I had an episiotomy. Is an episiotomy standard in assisted deliveries?
If I had a breast reduction, should I start pumping prior to giving birth?
Do you have specific labor positions and maneuvers for someone trying to have a vaginal birth with a "big baby" I'm 37 weeks with a baby measuring at almost 9 lbs
I’ve been told that squatting opens up the pelvis and naturally moves your tailbone out of the way, you could try that! 😊
Is it bad that I can squeeze tiny amounts of colostrum out? I know nipple stimulation can sort of stimulate labor and it's PROBABLY not good to squeeze them 😅 but, can I run out of supply of colostrum if I start leaking or will my body have enough for my beh beh when she's born? I just got my breast pump in the mail and I'm excited for her to get here and start my mom journey. I'm 36 weeks and still working as a RN on a post op medsurg floor. Gonna take off in about ten days and start my leave if everything is still good. Got checked yesterday and not dilated yet. My Dr gave me the ok to keep working for another week 😁
❤️
I am currently 36 weeks pregnant with my second and am beginning to get nervous about labor and delivery. With my first I had went septic from infection behind a kidney stone and conceived my daughter 2 weeks later. Ever since I had my first ( she is almost 2) I have had major burning pains in my bladder, trouble emptying my bladder, kidney pain, and pain during intercourse. I am not sure if this was all caused from sepsis or the delivery of my daughter but I definitely do not want it to get worse going through another delivery. Any suggestions or ideas on what is going on?
Does anyone had uterine rupture while trying for vbac..
When do most when go into labor when doing a vbac?
How long does it take to have a cesarean?
Our first was 26 hours , our second was 2.5 hours. Our third! 24 hours! So surprised! Not induced, vaginal births.
My second was 0-100. Nothing to holy shit in 5 mins. The other two it worked up to it.
If you have a sticky placenta and hemorrhaged with one pregnancy, is it more likely to happen with the next?
Im currently 31 weeks an 4 days with my 5th so im hoping it will be faster lol
My labor was 14 hours
I am 36 weeks this is my second pregnancy n my first was natural but I was induce n was in labor for 12 hours I’m trying to go into labor bc I do not want to get induce what can I do ?
Question: Can I continue breastfeeding while pregnant?
And
Can breastfeeding while pregnant cause pre-term labor?
It really depends on the woman, some nurse the whole pregnancy and even tandem nurse, while others have their milk dry up completely. If you want to try, I suggest subbing plenty of water and eat enough to support 3 people and also don’t skip your vitamins.
As for the labor part, it may cause somewhat earlier labor but again it depends on the woman, some do just fine, just try to take it easy otherwise.
Best of luck to you! ✨

I just had a tubular pregnancy in November of this year how likely is it for me to be able to get pregnant after losing my left tube but I have my right tube??
My mom had 8 pregnancies after losing a tube. My sister had 3 pregnancies, lost both tubes, doctors couldn't tell her why.
I know this is an older video but I'm hoping this will still be seen when talking about fast labour's your answer was that babies 2 to 5 are usually a similar birth to whatever baby number 2 was like. So my question is what happens for births after baby number five. I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant with baby number 6 l. My 1st birth was 19 hours and babies 2 to 5 where all under 2 hours. Does this mean that I could expect something different for baby number 6? I really hope that someone can help answer this for me. Thank you.
Nope! Expect the same but flex and flow! ♥️
