    Currently watching C-section videos after having one last week unexpectedly. Baby number 4 and all others were uncomplicated vaginal births. Wish I had done just a little C-section research in prior pregnancies just in case, since you never know what will happen. That’s going to be my advice to pregnant friends from now on. Research and mentally prepare for more than just the desired scenario. Thanks for this video.

    I had my first pregnancy at 32 yrs old, i am now 39 yrs old, expecting my 4th. I am considered high risk for preterm birth in every pregnancy due to having a short cervix. Every pregnancy starting at 16 weeks my obgyn doctor will start cervical measurement with vaginal ultrasound. I also always see a specialist. I always measure between 2.5-2.8cm in every pregnancy. Based on my history of full-term births & being over 1.5 cm, i have never had a vaginal cerclage. I have always been prescribed vaginal progesterone. 1st pregnancy 39w & 6 days, 2nd pregnancy 39w & 5 days, 3rd pregnancy 38w & 3 days. Currently 20 weeks pregnant with baby#4...and doctor said it was optional to continue fhe vaginal progesterone. Im choosing to continue it until the end of pregnancy, and im really hoping i make it full term again.

  • @thehonestesthetician5856

    Pitocin is NOT NOT NOT even close to the Same as oxytocin that your body makes and almost all women that get it end up with epidural under MUCH greater pain and distress and much more likely to have c-section. Shame on you for selling it. Go back to school.

    I‘m 34+4 weeks pregnant now and started to have premature labour symptoms (mostly contractions, also diarrhoea) yesterday. I think it might have been caused by the heat in combination with too much activity and too little water intake. Today I noticed I have regular contractions whenever I do anything, like normal household chores, or even just sitting, do I actually try to rest. I hope it helps to continue a couple more weeks

    I wish she had specifically mentioned incompetent cervix. My doctor has never recommended bed rest for me, but when I was pregnant with a preventative cerclage after my previous loss, I listened to my body. If I had any kind of cramping or bleeding, you can bet I was in bed. I firmly believe this helped keep me pregnant. There are many women in the incompetent cervix community who have the same experience, and many others who continued regular exercise and had premature births. I would need some very strong evidence specific to incompetent cervix to convince me that bed rest is never a good idea.

    • @kristigermain834
      @kristigermain834 Před 2 dny

      Hi, I'm also an IC mama. I totally agree with you. It's so frustrating in the US they usually don't even believe in bed rest even for women like us and it's total bs. We are pretty much the only women who physically cannot carry a baby yet they still just don't believe in it. We should absolutely be on at the very least modified BR. I had to fight with my doctors, and I also had other complications but was on light duty with my oldest, and modified bed rest with my youngest from the very beginning with a cerclage after 4 losses, 1 at 21+6 to IC. I strongly believe it kept me pregnant with my 2 living boys.

    I bled so bad, I had an emergency c-section. I filled several pads underneath me. They couldn’t control my bleeding. I was in the hospital for weeks! My child was 23 weeks gestation when born. He came home on a heart monitor. He kept coding and I had to bring him back to life after his was blue and not breathing. He was grey and lips blue. Heart monitor screaming. Doctors wouldn’t Beleive me! I called the NICU, several time as and was told “you are a new mom” AS IF I WAS Exaggerating! I was told I couldn’t bring him back, he was exposed to the world. When I finally called 911 after trying to get someone to listen to me; they could NOT Beleive what they saw after what the heard monitor said. Turns out his hemoglobin was so low, they could r Beleive he was even alive. Today he has cerebral palsy and I feel that he was neglected medically. PLEASE listen to your gut feeling and don’t listen to doctors who tell you “you are a new mom”. You know when there is something wrong!!! Don’t listen to what doctors say over a phone call! Get checked out!
