What happened to you?

Question

Okay you get to tell your stories :) I like to read personal experiences.
1) How did you feel the day or days before you went into labor?
2) what were you thinking/feeling?
3) Did your water break or did the doc break it?
4) Were you dilated for a while or did it happen all the suddon
5) how did you feel once your baby was put into your arms for the first time?

These are the questions that I can think about right now but if you want to add anything else feel free :)

Answer 1

1) With my first I was cleaning my house like a maniac. I changed the sheets every other day and was literally on my hands and knees cleaning the floor. With my second, I was crampy and not quite as anal about the cleaning but I had a child at home, too.

2) With my first I was thinking that at any second my water could break. I was ready, but scared. With my second I was pretty calm and ready to go.

3) With the first, it broke while I was pushing. 2nd, after a few sleepless nights of constant cramping, the dr sent me to the hospital and broke my water.

4) My last dr appt with #1 I was at a 3...had her that night. I was dialated to a 2 when dr checked me before sending me to the hospital with #2. But I went fast after that.

5) With my first, it was exciting and strange. I know this sounds weird, but it wasn't until we got home that I felt totally comfortable with her. With my 2nd, I didn't get to hold her right away because she wouldn't cry (aka breathe). She was pink and fine, but she wouldn't cry and they were concerned, so after that scare when they put her in my arms I was completely relieved.

Ask again in 7 months and I'll have another experience for you. :)

Answer 2

1. I didn't really think I was in labor
2. I really don't know, everything thing just happened really fast
3.The doc did
4.I was 1 1/2 for 3-4 weeks then all the sudden I was a 5, then a 10!!!- It went REALLY fast
5. It all happened so fast, but I fell in love with him, he was so small(5 lbs 10 oz) and so precious
I love having a baby, I love it when he looks me in the eyes and smiles it is the best feeling in the world. I love holding him and kissing him all over. I also love how soft his skin is!!!!

Answer 3

1 Uncomfortable, anxious, nervous
2 thinking. How can I get my doctor to induce my labor
3 Doctor broke my water with both kids
4 I was 3 cm for a week or two and then was induced
5 I felt a little overwhelmed, like here we go again, no sleep for a long time, a lot of hard work ahead. Sadly, I didn't feel a rush of love like everyone describes, it took me a week or two of being at home with my children to fall in love with them. Don't get me wrong, I had an immediate motherly instinct of protecting them and caring for them, but the scared feeling was first and love came later

Answer 4

1) really active, nesting
2) quite calm
3) waters didn't break, hospital did them
4) labored for hours and then fully dilated suddenly
5) indescribable rush of love that I'd never felt before
That was first baby, the next three were c-sections
way more nrevous and stressed
loved them all instantly

Answer 6

I'm a guy, so I'll only answer #5...

When my oldest was placed in my arms for the first time, I felt this weird feeling inside of me... I STILL don't know quite how to say it... It just felt like a "shift" in my heart... It was soooo strange, but felt so good at the same time...

Answer 7

Pray to God continuously mutually as attempting, as God enables people who help themselves extremely than people who're lazy. Lord Krisna mentioned in Bhagavad Gita, we ought to accomplish our works and resign the fruit of our action. So we ought to shop attempting and locate excitement in doing our artwork, whether or not we get the needed effect. we ought to continuously not lose desire. Do your superb and circulate away something to God,it is going to all come stunning some day or night.
