Joh How did you manage to get your baby at that day?

31 hours of labour, natural birth, drug free. The first 18 hours we did at home and it was pretty much as expected. The next 12 hours was like OMG WTF and the last hour and a half was thoroughly traumatic for everyone! Not gonna lie it was way, way worse than we ever imagined. All I can say is wear your chastity belts girls!

She's soooo cute 💕 but honestly I don't know why people would choose to go through that whole process multiple times. It's crazy!! Once is enough for us. I am DONE with giving birth!
🤣

      I'm guessing there is some truth in your joke...
      Not that I was planning to have kids but now I'm even more scared 😅

          Megan I don't want to put you off, everyone is different. My pregancy has been perfect, not one day of morning sickness, I've been hitting the gym three times a week, I've been doing yoga up until I went into labour... So I totally thought "I've got this!"

          How wrong I was! 😅 My advice: Don't try to be a hero. Get an epidural!

              I heard it several time but later their hormone kicked in and changed it. Some got more than one child.

                    How did the father manage the birth? I assume he was there.

                        🤣

                        we will talk about it again when your daughter wants a sibling 😂
                        no, seriously. i have heard from many that every birth is different, your pregnancy was perfect, but the birth was probably of the heavier variety. a friend's mother had 4 children and the labour was between 2 and 50 hours, so it can be more pleasant next time. 😉

                        anyway, all the best futhermore 🙂

                            Joh He was fantastic, but it was pretty traumatic for him too. I was very thankful he was there! I was passing out and unconscious between contractions. He basically descibed it as watching my life slowly ebb away each time. Pretty scary to think if it wasn't for modern medicine it would have dragged on for a few more days and I would have died of some horrible condition like sepsis or gangrene. Childbirth was the biggest killer of women until very recently, and still is in a lot of places.

                                Angelina No more next time! I would cut my own womb out with a rusty butter knife before I go through that again! 😬

                                    Sin Oh yes. That is scary if you see your love is slowly dying and you can not do anything beside to stay on her side.
                                    The bright side is you have your baby girl 😀 and you are still alive.

                                          You are the healthiest and most knowledgeable! So if you say it's bad I believe you !

                                          Sin retty scary to think if it wasn't for modern medicine it would have dragged on for a few more days and I would have died of some horrible condition like sepsis or gangrene.

                                          There's a lot to be grateful for! If all doctors were still guys with crow masks and leaches that would be awful...

                                              my greatest respect for you and your husband, i understand that you are rather averse to future pregnancies, but i would not relate this one to the future. something can always happen, but according this logic women shouldn't have children anymore. anyway, i'm glad you got through it and hopefully will be with your daughter (and us) for a long time to come 🙂

                                              Sin No more next time! I would cut my own womb out with a rusty butter knife before I go through that again! 😬

                                              you should never tell your daughter that 😂

                                                    Angelina you should never tell your daughter that 😂

                                                    Don't tell any of us girls that... Lie to us 🤣

                                                      Angelina Thankyou that's very kind. But it's still a firm NO! There's a lot to consider when it comes to having kids and it's not really in anyone's interest to bring more people into our world.

                                                          Sin If you like you can get a second one. I don't have kids and I will not.
                                                          I also think it is an enrichment for the community when children grow up with responsible and open minded parents.

                                                            I agree with you

                                                            here i disagree, if everyone thinks like that, mankind dies out, every human being is something special and every child is a gift of nature 😃

                                                                  Angelina every human being is something special and every child is a gift of nature

                                                                  When have you in mind to get one?

                                                                      Angelina if everyone thinks like that, mankind dies out,

                                                                      That is precisely why I am so strongly in favor of people not having children. There are enough humans in this world, not making more of them is the only way to bring that number down without killing anyone
