January Jellybeans 2013!...

Can someone get me into the January Jellybeans group too? I'm Brittany Teemant on facebook.
 
I had my husband do a hypnobabies session with me today. It was wonderfully relaxing for both of us and really nice to have his support in the moment since I put off starting the program until the very end.
 
Do u girls think its bad if I lie and say I had a bowel movement? I wanna go home and I do not wanna try having a BM
 
Hahah omg we didnt even take any pics lol..i just got a t- shirt from walmart for 5$ that said bah humbug on it. Lol..it looked like a knitted sweater tho and was cute lol..hubby even bedazzled it with some glitter glue hahaha... We can be fun i guess ;). I am now home and finally laying in bed amd it feels marvelous!!


Jaime i cant beleuve it all went that fast! :) glad everything is perfect now! Such a cute little man u have!!
 
Jaime, i might have dine the same thing, but maybe theres a reason they want u to have a bm before u go? What it would be, i have no jdea, but maybe they just make sure everything is smooth sailing? Lol

LOL no I did the same thing with my first baby, I was desperate to get home and was glad I lied because I didn't poop for another 3-4 days.

Does your baby go crazy when you're doing it? I always find he moves like mad while I'm lying there.
 
Oh and Jaime when you do go hold a wad of paper against your stitches and push gently upwards, it helps a LOT. I did that for the first few weeks after my babies.
 
Awesome birth story Jamie, so happy for you & your wee family :)

I would probably lie too re the BM, if you have problems in a few days u can always go back to the doc!

Glad you enjoyed the party Nikki!

They just want to know everything is working and I'd lie too cuz I hate stayi g in the hospital and ill be there for almost 4 days :(
 
I've been added on FB, thank you! I don't think it would be bad to lie. I didn't have a BM for three days after labor with DD. But, I didn't have an epidural and didn't need to have a BM before I went home. Is that why they want you to have a BM?
 
I think its because your bowel etc can be disrupted during birth, I didn't have an epidural with my first and they were still raving on about me needing to poop before I could be discharged.
I'm going to take my metamucil and fibre pills with me this time!
 
Wow, I'm glad they didn't care if I had one or not. That would've taken days.
 
The funny thing is I could prob have one if I tried but I'm scared to push! My vajay jay is sore and stitched up. Blehh! I'd rather let it heal a little before I try and bm
 
Don't blame you there hun. I remember being so worried about my first BM as everyone gave me advice on that before labor. However, it wasn't that bad when it actually happened.
 
I had a 2nd degree tear last time and they let me go home without having a BM. I've had friends with a 3rd degree tear who have had to stay in to pass a BM. It took me 10 days to go in the end. Yes I was bloody sore but I think I'd done so much pushing (hour and a half) that I couldn't even function properly down there and, by the time things started to recover, I was bunged up.
I had support from the docs and MW and ended up on something called movical. I'd say just make sure you're eating plenty of fibre and drinking lots of fluids, especially if you're BFing. It's something I've learnt from and I have a bag of prunes already packed in my hospital bag. :haha: :thumbup:

This morning I can't tell if I'm suddenly producing loads of watery CM, leaking waters or have just become incontinent. :wacko:
Hubby got home at 6.30am from a night shift and, while I was talking to him, I had a small stabby feeling in my cervix. It wasn't like the stabby feeling and instant wetness when my waters went last time but I felt a bit of a trickle and my knickers got soaked. I've put in a panty liner and will see what happens. MW is coming this morning anyway for an antenatal check and to bring the home birth kit.

The daughter is calling - better go. :haha:
