    I've been over doing it today. My hips hurt so bad I can hardly move. I get contractions the second I move it seems like. Luckily I'm almost done, just a few more things to do. Then I need to run to the store. For now I'm relaxing with a heating pad on my back. I tried my exercise ball, but it's too small, so I'll need to buy a bigger one. Hopefully that'll help my hip pain.
    @LaBellaVida- get a bigger one and try it. I've had hip surgery (years ago from ballet injuries) and the ball helps my hips even when NOT pregnant. I've used it for years. It especially helped when pregnant, also, so hopefully it does the same for you.  I'm sorry your hips hurts, that pain sucks!

    Why in the hell would anyone want a c-section? It's major abdominal surgery.

    Cuz I could die if I try to deliver a transverse baby ;)

    I have heard arguments for all sides.  I know ladies who got c sections who loved it and call it a miracle surgery and would never give birth another way.  I know ladies who did vaginal who can't imagine not doing everything possible to have a vaginal birth.  I know ladies who had c sections who wish they had been able to do vaginally and who think the recovery was fucking awful. I know ladies who had vaginal births that were traumatic who wish they would have just okayed the c section.... it's a mixed bag
    ---quote fail---

    I mean for no good reason. Obviously if the baby is transverse or there are other complications, that makes sense to me. But why anyone would want a c-section just because they don't want to "wreck their vagina" or are afraid of a vaginal delivery for whatever reason or whatever I don't understand.

    But what if you have a really spectacular vagina?  ;)

    I loved my csection, but I wouldn't have opted for it to start with.  I'm comfortable with my RCS, not that I really have much of a choice in the matter unless I want to deliver an hour and a half away (which I don't).  


    This was my experience too. I would have not opted for a CS but it ended up being necessary and my recovery was a breeze. I'm fully comfortable with RCS this time in order to not repeat my last experience (long labor, distress, urgent CS). But no, I can't imagine wanting it outright without a really serious reason.

    Very early UO: Every time I see the title of the thread "worst way to wake up pregnant..." my mind immediately fills in with "not pregnant."

    I'm just super sensitive but I can't wait until it's off the first page.

    Yeah, that happened to me, and it's definitely the worst (that I've experienced), but I didn't answer that because it's a downer and technically I wasn't pregnant anymore at that point, so that's different. But yeah, I'd much rather wake up puking or with leg cramps than to spotting or worse. Hugs to all the loss moms.

    I agree with you both. I haven't read the thread for that reason.


    sorry ladies that was my fault I didn't realize that it would be an insensitive thread I totally posted that. I had a really bad Charlie horse and totally didn't consider how it would be taken :-(

    @mowl2014‌, it's ok - I wasn't offended by it, but for people who woke up with spotting or other serious complications before, it's just a really sad and scary thing.

    I think that for whatever reason someone decides to have a c-section (or any other kind of birth) is their choice to make. Their body, their baby, their choice, none of my business.

    Ah but what kind of peanut butter?  I'm a Peter Pan kinda girl.  My hubby eats Jif
    @bubbles923- neither, lol. I prefer local natural ones. I don't like Peter Pan, Jif or any of those  X_X

    honestly I wasn't opposed to a c-section the first time because of what my cousins birth story was regarding inducing labor and ending with an emergency section. (also some of my friends tore pretty bad so I was really apprehensive about that) I specifically said to my doctor if I go a week late and your going to induce just give me a c-section because I was scared. Doc agreed with me that if inducing it wasn't the worst idea and it was my choice. But my water broke and I still ended up with c-section. I'm glad I was okay with it because I'm sure many women would have fought longer with the doc to have a vaginal delivery but since I was fighting for the c-section once we hit 18 hours in I felt like it was my decision to make.

    That being said, even making the decision to RCS wasn't the easiest because of course being cut into is a huge deal and nothing to decide lightly. But my step sister just had a really long labor that almost ended in c-section and since baby is breach anyways I'll stick with RCS rather than trying to stress whether he will flip.

    My vag was 'wrecked' for 2 weeks. It's completely back to normal... LOL
    My last delivery did "wreck" my vagina in a lot of ways, but after having abdominal surgery unrelated to pregnancy, twice, there is NO WAY I would volunteer to do it again. 

    But I remember talking to an aquiantance who said her dad was an OB/GYN and suggested that she and all her sisters have elective c-sections so they kept their vaginas from being stretched out and preserved their sex life. I was too young and naive at the time to side-eye the rationale and distracted by how gross I thought it would be to be lectured by my dad on the state of my vag. 
    Awwwwwwkkkkkwwwwaaaaarrrrrrd lol
