Dont want to pass 37 weeks (tmi)
Hello ladies, I know this might sound selfish but I dnt want my baby passing the 37th weeks mark. I dnt want a big baby, despite the fact that am sexually active, my birth canal seems to shrink and get tight the very nxt day. im currently 27wks, so 10 more wks.....im plannin to do everything possible starting week 35 to kick start labor naturally.....is it a bad idea?
Having a baby is going to hurt if they are 4 pounds or 10 pounds. Your body is pushing a head through your pelvis or they are coming out your abdomen so you're screwed either way. And the recovery is just the same if you deliver at 24 weeks, 36 weeks, or even at 42 weeks. No sense in trying to onset labor at 35 weeks thinking you are going to avoid pain from having a baby early.
I,had a 9 lb 10 Oz baby I,only weighted 130, he actually came a lot faster BC he was big, just because they are bigger doesnt necessarily mean its harder, my Dr said she sees some small babies cause more time and pain. Just depends.
Am not worried abt my lady part, I only worried abt the pain associated with havin big babies, I dnt want a c-section, I want to deliver vaginally.....but thnx beautiful mamas, I really appreciate ur insight.....wud let my baby girl come when she is ready.
I feel you, my boyfriend was over 9lbs when born nd his mom says he never had to wear newborn diapers, I'm terrified! Lol he's a big man even now so I have no doubt my baby will be big. Its scary to think of 6/7lb human come busting out of you, even more so 9/10lbs! I feel you completely nd wouldn't mind him coming a little early, only on his terms tho!
This is beyond selfish. Period end of story. You're bringing life into this world and your concern is keeping your vagina tight? Am I wrong? Or are you worried about pain associated with birth? If your worried about pain then you need to research birthing methods like Bradley or hypno. Good luck to you and your baby
