    This one is hard, because now I know I have fast labors and it would be over quick. I had really bad back labor (bkb was turned the wrong way) I think if she was in the right position I would have had her in five hours. I was in to be checked at 4 and I was only at two centemeters, then at 8pm I was at six. There wasn't really a chance for me to get there earlier because I was really waiting for things to change and it wasn't until seven when I thought things were really changing. So I guess my answer is I don't know.... but in this exact case if I got there earlier, like at 530 or 6pm I would have gotten one.

  • imagejennlin:

    The lack of time for myself... The fourth trimester is REALLY hard too. BKB cried a lot. I would literally walk laps around the house with her crying for some times over an hour straight. On really bad days I would start crying too. The exhaustion really gets to you. Now that she is a little older it has gotten easier.

    I'm a huge type A person, so it is hard for me to let go of predictability too.

    Yup. It wasn't as scary as I thought. I actually found myself wanting it about week 4 post baby, which suprised me.

    yes, except I thought she would sleep on her own for naps so I would have time to do stuff. I didn't know she'd be on me all day every day.
