Please do not feel like you seem ungrateful. No one is in your body but you and pregnancy is hard no matter how grateful you may be and having aches, pains, worries, issues etc just a part of the journey to baby... I am forever grateful for both my kids and the ease that I conceived them even more now that we are struggling for our third after a miscarriage. When God does give us our third blessing I know there will be days that I am losing my mind because my body hurts or my hormones are raging. That however does not make my love or gratitude any less... Just makes me human!
Keep your head up and keep growing that beautiful blessing... I hope he turns for you so you can have the birth you want but even if he doesn't, I pray for a smooth birth and a healthy journey for your family
Thank you for these kind and reassuring words. Means a lot
Liv 4 Today I had the same thing happen with my youngest. It was nerve wrecking thinking about a C-Section. She was sideways and they tried to turn her.The doctors induced me at 39weeks and if my daughter did not come out I had to do surgery. Thankfully, the pitocin and epidural kicked the labour in gear! I had them at Cape Fear Valley Hospital in NC. They are Canadian now.
Not long now! Hoping it all works out would be good if he turned for you take care
You're getting so close!! I have no advice...looks like our chance of this experience is fading away but I'm sending you all the positivity I can!! 💛
You look amazing Liv. We can't wait to see the baby when he's born.
I feel like you've really popped! Loving the baby bump ❤️
So excited and happy for you! PS: that plum color looks very pretty on you! :)
Anyone who has watched all of your vlogs knows you are not, nor have you ever been ungrateful. This has been so much fun to watch your journey. There are a lot of youtubers who vlog their pregnancy journeys, and there are a few that I just cannot stand to watch for various reasons. You have always been very honest and raw in your fears and I understood those fears. I am so happy little Beau is almost here.
Gina your words are very very comforting. Thank you for that much needed reassurance. I think I just aim to be as sensitive to others on their own journeys as possible, and to think that someone out there could misconstrue my frustrations or struggles for lack of gratitude to be in this position, affected me on a empathetic level. Appreciate your support
In my experience, Braxton Hicks contractions felt just like the real thing - they just didn't progress..It's hard to tell sometimes.
You look great ! Cant wait to meet him take care of your self until next time take care
You look amazing!!! I've had two c-sections, the recovery is a little rough for the first week (for me) but after that it's fine. I pray that he does turn in the right position. So excited for you and Eric.
Thanks Toshia! Yes, I've heard a few different experiences and most seem to be the most rough the first few days to week. Just unfortunate that those are the first days with the new addition!
I wish you all the best the one advice is to prepare a postpartum kit. One other advice when you have visitors is to avoid germs or kissing a baby. Get some hand sanitizer for guests and if they are sick let them know baby is not ready.I'm not sure what you need for c-section postpartum, but a supportive husband since it would be uncomfortable afterwards. Please ask your hospital about Eric filming the birth. You wouldn't be able to..and everyone wants to meet beau.
I don't understand why people think in order to be grateful, you're not allowed to ever express pain or discomfort. Please don't feel like you can't talk about the bad days! Pregnancy after infertility is hard and complicated. Also, you look great!!!
Thanks Rebecca xx
Sheesh! The person who called you out for not being grateful was actually rude, not just blunt. You're a human being with real emotions. So, you get to have more than one feeling about a situation, even this situation! It's very obvious that you're grateful for being pregnant and for te baby that is coming! I'm looking forward to the update after August 30!
I'm sure you've tried it but I've heard that if you put something cold on your belly it can intice baby to move away from the cold and into a new posution. Not sure if it works but it's worth a try
You know what, I had heard this and have not tried it. Silly me... I forgot. Going to give this a go today. Thanks for the reminder
Happy Birthday to baby Beau, Liv! I hope you get a fast recovery. Seems you are in a lot of pain with your C Section post delivery but nonetheless congratulations for beating infertility! Beau looks so adorable in your instagram posts!
Ur amazing ! Never ungrateful I have been following u since the very beginning ! Your such a sweetheart
YOURE ABSOLUTELY DARLING AND I AM SO GLAD YOU CALLED OUT WHOEVER IT WAS THAT CALLED YOU UNGREATFUL!!! HOW RUDE!!!! IVE WATCHED YOUR VIDEOS SINCE THE DAY YOU FOUND OUT YOU WERE PG AND YOUVE NEVER BEEN ANYTHING BUT GLOWING AND HUMBLE. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER FOR YOU AND ERIC! ENJOY THESE NEXT FEW WEEKS TOGETHER❤️... YOURE ABOUT TO GET REEEEAAALLL BUSY!😊 CHEERS TO A BEAUTIFUL DELIVERY!!
Thanks so much for your sweet words Rosie. CHEERS! :) haha.
Whoever said that to you, doesn't know you very well! Don't think on it for one moment. You have made it VERY CLEAR how grateful you are since day one. Hugs
I have so much to say but first off you look wonderful! I'm sorry to hear about your c-section but it seems like you've accepted it and have maintained a positive outlook. I got 15 hour notice of a planned csection because one of my stinkers decided to flip breech and I was devastated. But going into surgery I knew it was the best decision in the end. Plus you get to pee the next day and it doesn't hurt!! I recommend walking lots! Also, our subscribers mean well but sometimes things being said can hurt. And be upsetting. Once someone told me that they hoped my remaining embryos would all die. I just learned over the years that the thicker our skin the better but I've never thought you were ungrateful. I know from walking your same path that you don't take a moment for granted and it's ok to have a few uncomfortable moments. Being a mommy is the same! A few bad days doesn't mean a bad life. Sending love!!
yay! The final two week wait! I am happy that you are willing to tell us all that you go through. I have never been pregnant and having gone through infertility with endometriosis for 8 years, I am glad you don't make it out to be all sunshine and rainbows. I haven't missed a video and I love to see you go through all the emotions. That way it prepares me for when my time comes. Can't wait to see Beau
Thanks so so much for your kind words Bennesa! I try and be as authentic as I can. I like to be positive and think positively, but the truth is, most of us can't do that all the time. I had no idea that I'd struggle with pregnancy after going through what we went through to get here. I thought I'd be all hopeful happy sunshine and rainbows like you said. But infertility affected me on a much deeper level than I ever knew possible, and so I hope that my experiences will help others who may end up processing similar emotions through their pregnancies
I don't understand how anyone can think your ungrateful! Seriously some people are so rude. You are probably the most grateful because of your journey! I love watching your videos and I'm so excited to see baby on them! I did freezer cooking before my babies came. I had c sections so I made 30 meals prior which was amazing to have after!
Wow 30 meals! I'm impressed. My goal is to make about 15... but perhaps I need to up my game ;) haha xx
It was great. I made big batches of soups stews and casserols that I split up into multiple meals in tin foil oven dishes. All I had to do was pop them into the oven whenever we needed. 😊
I'm soo excited for u both 😁 I really can't wait for ur notification once he's born. good luck. only days away now ❤ xx
The chiropractor flipped my son at 36 weeks! It was crazy!!
Gorgeous! You have never been ungrateful and I've watched you since before you got pregnant. I'm so happy for you!!!!! Almost there! 😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks gorgeous. xx
We are having such solar pregnancies. Lol. My little girl is breech. We are scheduled for a c section on the 24th. I have been having contractions for the last 5 days. They are worse when I am moving then when I am sitting. I'm so excited to see you little boy. And we all know you are so grateful for your son!
Too funny. Well I'm sorry little girl is breech. I guess we're both down to the wire here... have you just been having contractions, or crampy period like pains too? I have been experiencing both...
you are there Liv! Well done to you. and remember you are a mum already!
ps don't get the negative comments get into you. leave them behind. your baby and your peace are the most important things now, love from Ireland, xx
I was a little taken aback at first, but absolutely did let it go. I just didn't want there to be any misconceptions about my gratitude, that's the only reason I felt I should mention it.
Your c- section is scheduled on my due date! lol I wish I knew when my little guy was coming. I'm driving myself nuts over here! 😂
No way! Yea, the knowing is one perk for sure. Though, he could still turn which would mean we don't really know... so nothing is certain anyway ;) xx
You've been such an inspiration!
So excited for you! You look absolutely wonderful! The time has flown by and the next few weeks will be even faster. As for the person who made the mean comment you spoke about, all I can say is shame on her. Just ignore ignorant cruel people. I have followed you since your positive test pregnancy video and you have shown yourself to be very humble and grateful throughout your whole experience. Can't wait for your birth video! 😊I will be praying for you. I'm sure it will be a beautiful experience for you and your husband. God bless you!
Thanks Debra. Yes, you've been there from the very start. Perhaps that is part of it, that I don't mention the past often enough to help others see the foundation on which I'm speaking if they're just popping in. I've loved having you here for the journey and can't wait to share this milestone with you all!
My daughter flipped at 37 weeks, she had been breech the entire pregnancy!! Keep bouncing on your yoga ball, get your butt in the air and visualize him turning!
And I am so so excited for you, by the way! It has been amazing to watch your entire journey! Good look and hang on, momma, the ride is just beginning!
Hmmm butt in the air, haha, feels like the good old days of ttc naturally with legs on the wall ;) haha. But yes, will keep doing all of the above and hope for the best!!! xx
Hey Liv you are looking beautiful. Dont worry about c section its very safe nowdays (lots of friends had it) just keep positive all will be great! 30th of August its my birthday :)
I am 10 weeks behind you and feeling more nad more tired and back and hip pain are getting worse too. But its all not important everytime she kicks me I feel wave of love I never felt before :)
I am based in London so medical care is very different than USA. Yes we have free access to health care but because of that they always lack staff and money etc. I mean care is good but they tend to push all wome through natural birth even if they have health problems like myself (heart issues :( ) so I requested c section and now obe have to accept my request which is very stresfull to be honest.
I am am still keeping positive and trying not to worry too much.
Wishing u lots of rest before baby is born xoxo
Yes, once the second trimester sort of fades into the past, the fatigue and soreness kicks up for sure. Feeling baby move is the most amazing reminder of the miracle of pregnancy isn't it!? So happy for you to be experiencing this joy. I hope you get your approval, I can't see why your OB wouldn't approve, but yes, I imagine that's stressful. Best of luck to you
I hate that I'm in Arizona and when I do to much in the heat I get cramps Ughh horrible and since I'm ivf to it's always makes you nervous. That's horrible that someone would say your ungrateful. Even us ladies with IVF are allowed to bitch and have bad days. Those of us who did IVF and know the struggles are very grateful for all we have because of all we have went through to get these babies. Don't let that get to you. And I totally know what you mean at 30 weeks my little girl is still breach and if she turns she turns if not I'm okay with a c-section especially since with the whole IVF and placenta thing. I'm excited for you guys. Hey did your ob tell you guys that any family that comes and stays needs to have the tdap shot? It's the whooping cough, tetanus, and diphtheria. Just wondering cause that's what my ob said family needs to get if they are staying with us.
Eric just got his T-Dap but I'm not entirely sure how to broach the subject with family. Beau is second born on both sides so it's almost assumed they should be good... but also if they didn't for the first, they may think we're being paranoid or something this time around. Such a sticky topic. Ugh. haha. but will try and figure out a way to approach that for sure... wanna do it for me!? ;) jk
Liv 4 Today lol I would totally do it. I told family that is staying you can't stay with us if you don't get it. It's okay to be over the top especially when you've gone through so much to get this little life. I'm like you know what if it bothers you to get it, then you can come visit but can't stay with us.
Have you been on the spinning babies website? A great resource for babies to move to the right position. Good luck ☺
I have! I tried all the positions for transverse but no success. Continue to give them a try though... never know! :) xx
I hope u r fine and your baby is also fine may god bless both of you m very curious to see your baby love from Pakistan
I saw my chiropractor and acupuncturist the same week as my version and he had flipped on his own and stayed that way. I am not sure which worked but I felt a lot of movement at my acupuncture appt she had me get on all fours and round my back and I felt him moving a lot, I think he had more room to turn.
I've never been very lucky with acupuncture. I think I lost faith in it through our fertility journey, but looking back I do think it had an impact on regulating my cycle somewhat... I should reconsider going. I thought about it, but with chiro twice a week and all else I have been doing it feel like just yet another thing to pay for and schedule. I'm going to ponder on that one...
I agree I do not feel acupuncture helped with my
3 years of infertility very much but I truly feel it helped flip my son, I was so excited I heard versions are so painful, I was high fiving my doctor when they did an ultrasound before they were supposed to do the version.
haha that's awesome... I'd be high five'ing too! :)
Can't wait to see your baby 😭❤❤❤
