When you ask how dialated you are during labor can be really devastating (as she points out). It's a mistake to think of birth like everything else in life. Maybe for other things, knowing something is motivating but having any expectations during labor is a mistake. Ladies, don't do that. Don't expect anything. If you are planning a home birth or unmedicated birth, don't ask how dialated you are and dont have any expectations. Commit fully to the unknown and everything will be fine. Worked really well for me.

I am a registered nurse … I work at a hospital but I was adamant I would not give birth at a hospital. For me, though I love being a nurse, giving birth at a hospital which in other words is my workplace, just created such a negative space in my mind from the get-go. I ended up having a healthy baby boy (just a week after little Micah was born actually!) at a birth centre with only one midwife present and completely unmedicated. It was such a positive experience and I wouldn’t change it for the world!

I want to encourage you Tori, what Micah’s birth was like does not predict what every labour of yours will be like- having a sideways cervix for his labour would have been a great source of pain, and without that (with the added hope that second babies come a bit quicker and easier anyway) I believe your next birth will be completely different! ❤️ AND- even if it isn’t, God will still be good and will still be right there in it with you.

Expectation is what KILLED my mental health in the newborn stage. I followed all of these accounts on social media about baby sleep, baby schedules, etc. and when none of my worked I felt like a complete failure. I chose to unfollow all of those pages for the time being and I felt like a weight lifted from me. Those pages can be helpful for some, but when it doesn’t work- you feel like you’re doing something wrong, when in reality you as mama know what’s best for your baby. Night time waking in babies is NORMAL. Fighting naps, shorts naps, is all n o r m a l. Marketing just makes us think it’s not so we buy all these gadgets to try and fix it! It can be so so stressful when you feel like you can’t put baby down or when the sleep isn’t there. Just know you’re not alone.♥️

Also, can I encourage you to chat with your midwife and doula about adding the conversation about birth plans in their prenatal care?

I feel like I relate to you so much in regards to your feelings about having more kids. I have two kids now but after my first labor and delivery that was so long and so hard (24 hour labor with 4 hour pushing) and then I felt not like myself for a long long time, my greatest worry was that would happen a second time. God totally answered that prayer and covered that fear with a short, easy labor and delivery and an amazing recovery with my second baby. But I did feel as though I had some trauma and couldn’t look at birth photos with my first for some time.

I feel led to share this in hopes of giving someone encouragement and peace over Birth, and homebirth specifically 🕊️ I had a 4-hour labor. I did have lots of prodromal labor (real, steady contractions) on and off for the week prior to delivery day. I had so much peace about birth, having been encouraged by my church family + community that I COULD do this, and we would have a beautiful birth with a healthy baby + healthy mama. I set my mind on that, and I feel that played a HUGE role in having a short labor that was mostly pain-free. Contractions felt intense but not painful. A little after 11am I went somewhere else mentally, spiritually… Starting seeing the contractions as waves 🌊 and felt like I was surfing 🏄🏼♀️ coming up to each one, having to prepare myself to ride along each wave. My doula + my husband took turns squeezing my hips during contractions, all throughout labor, as counter-pressure that helped me ride those waves and not be swallowed up by them. My doula also taught me to make low groans/humming sounds through each contraction. All of that helped me visualize and physically feel baby moving down. The birth pool/water helped a lot with relieving the intense pressure from contractions as well. Baby crowning was painful… but short-lived burning feeling that I could still visualize and flow along with. Our baby boy was born at 3:01pm on 3/2/23 🌟 Having God, Jesus, & Holy Spirit to rely on throughout my entire pregnancy + labor + delivery, + postpartum has been the most valuable in all of this.

Reality is - we live in a fallen world and birth is cursed. Whilst getting to meet our babies is beautiful, birth is actually very serious and things can go wrong, and not by any fault of our own. It's ok to have a positive mindset going in and believing it will go well - be we actually have no control over our births. Mums-to-be really do need to be careful about how many "positive" videos they watch. I had a similar experience as Tori and I too watched tonnes of beautiful, peaceful birthing videos, believing that mine would be the same, and when I ended up having an emergency c-section I was devastated. This was over a year ago and I'm still processing it. Thank you for sharing your experience Tori. You're a shining light and an incredible Mumma!

I disagree. She didn't seem prepared in a practical sense and romanticized it with religion. If she was a bit more prepared it could have been different. Medically it didn't seem traumatizing but being emotional people who want to "feel the holy Spirit" or God during labor, really messed with her mind. Funny enough, her God cursed and brought this pain to women (based on her own beliefs in the bible). Ironic.

Yes, yes, yes! Rest is SO important for labor. Taking a Bradley Method class between my 1st and 2nd babies made all the difference in my labor experiences, by God's grace. I felt so prepared. Also, contractions after your water breaks vs before are a world apart. My water broke super early for our first baby and it was tough. By contrast, our 2nd baby was almost birthed at home by accident, because I thought I was still in early labor when I was actually in late active labor/transition. 😅

Two things I'd have to agree with you Tori. 1. Best advise I was given by my friend before giving birth was to know it will be worst pain I've ever had and know that I can do it! 2. Postpartum hormones and recovery causes a lot of pain and discomfort during the deed. But I have to say 6 months pp were back to normal! Also would like to add I got an episiotomy and my stitches broke after going to the toilet a week later because I forgot to take my stool softeners. For the first month was agony, every time going to the toilet... it was giving birth all over again. Literally contractions and all. And the midwife said it will heal without restitching... Only if my internal stitches broke they'd redo them.

There's a pretty fair chance this, too, will be deleted... but i just want to say: I think its sad to see so many comments being deleted when they are not entirely supportive/positive/you-did-greaty. Birth extends over a range of experiences and I think deleting comments taking about births that were more traumatic dont discredit the fact that tori had a hard time. Birth is a range of experiences an opinions and censoring instead of engaging in discussion seems really off to me. It's perfectly fine that your perception of labor was traumatic, but its also important to acknowledge that nothing went wrong and many of the things that happened could have been prepared for. I feel like deleting more critical messages will leave people feeling like they should be traumatized by their experience when it was worse/more intervention heavy than Tori's, when they previously thought that their labor was fine. I'd love for you guys to engage in an actual conversation in this, instead of censoring... :(

You are also contradicting yourself by saying everyone has their own experience but you say “nothing went wrong” like you experienced what they they went through.

When my midwife checked me (30 min after getting to hospital) she said "...that's crazy, I see in your notes you wanted and epidural, but you're 7-8cm, there's no time for one, your baby will be here in 20 minutes!" She offered me opioid drugs but I said "no thank you", thinking I can do 20min. Half an hour later baby was here. I could do the 2 hours, but i thought at the time, if this level of pain went for any longer I would have needed an epidural, I can't imagine going for 36h+, you are amazing and so strong!!!

That last question lol. You guys are so funny. Look I think we really need to talk about sex post partum. It can be really isolating for women and nobody talks about it. After my first son who was an emergency C section I think we had sex at the 6/7 week mark. For my second son (now 6months old) who was a VBAC it took 2 months before we tried but closer to 3 months before things felt better. I had an episiotomy with forceps delivery and stitches and DANG it hurt way deep inside and on the outside the first 3-4 times we had sex. I only felt comfortable talking to a few people and they just kept saying it will get better. Meanwhile my poor hubby was being very patient but I could tell he was nervous and getting more and more impatient. the more you stress or get anxious then the worse it gets. And for those wondering because I never knew but like Toru said hormones! They can make you way drier, they change the elasticity of the vaginal wall making it more painful, and impact sex drive. So yeah. I think there is a lot to talk about and hopefully we can talk about it more to normalize sex post partum.

The home birth judgement is so ridiculous! Where do y’all think people gave birth 100+ years ago?! Our generation has it so twisted. I got SO much judgement from my OB’s office when I told them I was switching to a midwife - it’s like I had told them I was gonna go give birth in a barn! 🙈

This is so true! Same goes for home schooling judgement. When I tell someone I home school my kids the majority of the response is negative.

Just have to say, you are wrong about the stitches, you do not want stitches. Praise God you didn’t need stitches.

Why not? I really did not care about my stitches, they recovered me good!

Tori, for your next baby, please look into a hospital birth. It's obvious that the home birth was just too much for the both of you. You didn't need to suffer so much. It could have been a better experience for you if you had an epidural and episiotomy like most mothers do.

Your more likely to have Is complications when you have a epidural.

is it weard that i think that if Chad feels so unconfortable with some topics and was so nervous during the delivery maybe he should not be during delivery next time? Some man doesn't feel well in the delivery room and it doesn't mean they are not great fathers and that they don't care about their wife and child. Maybe some woman from family would be more capable of helping and understanding

Also about the swaddle - try using the transitional swaddle sack 👍🏼 that really helped mine. Hope it works out! 🤍
