I was in labor for 14 hours.....i only remember when my contractions started because i was im the cowboy position tryna get it in before i went in the next day to be induced. My baby was weeks late!</p><p>I would have to say my first contraction was the worse, i couldnt get up until it passed. Once it did, i went immediately to the hospital where i was told to return when i felt the head because my contractions were not reading(back labor). When my grandma took me back 6 hours later, the fun began. Omg, i got an epidural but i swear there is no drug on earth that will make you not feel your hole stretch for a head then shoulders pass through. My son was 8lbs 2oz 22 1/2 inches and i felt every part of him coming out. The pain was beyond words.<br>I was blessed not to have to get any stitches or staples (thank you Grandma Ruth) and was outside smoking a blunt an hour later.</p>hazysinWed, 21 Oct 2009 19:46:10 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20632057<p>Definitely worth it. <br>I remember people would say you forget the pain....Nope them suckers are liars. I still remember teh pain even though teh contractions didn't hurt as much (i cried on my back tat...that was seriously more painful than contractions)</p><p>I ended up having a C-section as well and the recovery is more painful.. What hurt me thoe most was Mastitis....that bish right there had me doubled over. nothing worse than engorged Boobs.</p><p>you can also help against ripping or needing to get an episotomy by rubbing oil on and strecthing your perinum.</p><p>that tobasco stuff sounds tough... I remember "preparing" myself for delivery... and was calm until I got to the chapter about the Ring of fire. Somehow nothing can prepare you for such burning.. Glad I didn't have to experience that</p>kingsmommaTue, 20 Oct 2009 11:45:55 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20600895<p>Oh yeah, the kegels are a MUST, always...babies or no babies!</p><p></p>HeadMistressMon, 19 Oct 2009 22:28:44 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20600282<p>6 weeks just like new huh?...lol. We'll see! I'm definitely gonna have to incorporate kegels to the max lol.</p><p>I don't know if I can do natural (no meds) but I'm sure as hell not opting for a needle in my back smch.</p><p>Men better appreciate women more lol.</p>NessMon, 19 Oct 2009 22:15:34 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20505869<p>Yeah, there is definitely stuff for the pain, some women wanna do it with no drugs, I say Good Effin Luck with that cause I can't, but I also didn't want the epidural - I wanna say they gave me demerol but idk to be honest (thats pretty bad) I was just like make it stop with whatever you got except for the needle in the back BS...</p><p>Theres no ripping, unless you get stuck in traffic on the way to the hosp and give birth in the back of a livery cab, LMAO, you'll get an episiotomy...in six weeks you're just like new, well not new-new but you know...LOL </p>HeadMistressMon, 19 Oct 2009 13:52:38 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20505434<p>See...I don't thnk I have a high tolerance for pain. If thr is pain involved then thr needs to be some type of numbing or being put to sleep lol.</p><p>But I guess no matter the amt of pain it is all worth it regardless b/c children r a gift and its a blessing.</p><p>I do want to have kids one day but the idea of pushing out a child tht might rip me frm front to back or having thm cut me and take the baby out doesn't sound like somethng I want to rush into lol.</p><p>But I do want to a child (maybe 2) lol.</p>NessMon, 19 Oct 2009 13:44:28 -0000http://www.pinkcufflynx.com/2009/10/special-delivery-with-side-of-pain.html#comment-20504261<p>I am the biggest sucker alive when it comes to pain, I think I had a fairly easy labor and delivery compared to some of the stories I've heard.</p><p>But it is true, it is all worth it, within a few weeks after giving birth I honestly couldn't even remember the pain. I also know people who have had near death experiences giving birth and still say they would do it again.</p><p>If you really want a child it is worth it. That baby will make you forget everything and everybody else in the world!</p>HeadMistressMon, 19 Oct 2009 13:24:06 -0000
