Why do us women feel the need to belittle other women with their childbirth experiences? Or try to “one-up” each other? My adoptive mother (who never had any natural children but adopted 3 children) was always on the receiving end of insensitive things said by other women. *Doesn’t matter how you had’em, ladies! *Matters how you 🫵 raise’em!*” 🙌🤷🏻‍♀️

I had both my children in unmedicated births. Lamaze does work if you do it correctly. Your coach has to keep you focused. I’m 5’3”, and weighed 100 lbs when I got pregnant each time and had 7.5 lb baby first time, but second baby was 8.5 lbs, 22.5 inches long. And he was in jackknife position which is a form of breech. He was turned and came down head first second time. You can do it with surgery or medicine

Everyone birth is different! Every woman is different! Every woman handles pain differently! Just because some of these woman said they use meds make them weak! Same as some you not using meds make you superior are stronger! It’s pathetic how some of you are commenting! Not one of you knows why the next made the choice to handle their birth the way they did! Every d@mn thing ain’t a competition it’s sad so many supposed to be grown woman that call themselves mothers are being so childish! Long as the babies are born in good health that should be the main focus! 🙏🏼

I feel for you. I was unmedicated and I had a 9 pound 1 ounce baby.

I had 5 unmedicated. It was my choice and I had my reasons. I told my 2 daughters to do it the way that was right for them, that all of us are different. One way is not superior to another and it's not a badge of courage to have a vaginal unmedicated birth. Why do we make it a competition?

natural childbirth was the ONLY way to go in 1980. so such things as epidural. Only Lamaze and breathing thru those nasty contractions. I don't think I would do it any other way!! you've all gotten soft!!

Congratulations! I went through 36 hours of labor with my first, with no medication either, and a few hours later I said I would do it again. I did it two more times after number one! Enjoy your baby because they grow up too fast.

Had both batural without meds or epideral. Family member that did anesthsia told me best to not have them because later in life it causes back pain issues. Every woman ive spoke to that had them has back issues now

Births are supposed to be natural births. And women dying in childbirth was part of nature. The natural way is gone and that is why there is welfare because the convenience of giving birth is a money maker in many ways.

l gave birth twice to 10lb babies with absolutely nothing!! Then after number 2 l ended up with an immediate hysterectomy at 21. 🤣 It had nothing to do with natural birth. But, l now tell my son, 30, that he literally made sure he was the baby!! He wanted no kids after him! My daughter in love tried so hard for natural but ended up with a c section. It broke her heart that she needed meds and a surgery!

I had an unmedicated birth experience. Natural childbirth was all the rage during the 80s and it was hell.

I don’t get it. If you choose no meds cool and good for you. I chose and epidural after struggling with the pain. Doesn’t make me a bad person or Mom and I recovered just fine. Line you don’t get a prize lol.

I had my son without any epidural or any pain medication and it's literally the ring of fire like right before they come out and then when they come out it's like a ring a fire and then it's immediately when it's over when they're out it doesn't hurt anymore your body doesn't hurt You're just kind of shaky a little bit but other than that you're fine it doesn't really hurt that much anymore

The true queens are the ones that have no meds with baby #1. My first & my last were no drugs. After I pushed my last one out, I was so relieved i said “Holy Hell I’m glad that’s done” My doctor was in hysterics & couldn’t believe I was joking & not in tears! Your recovery & healing time is so much quicker as well! Good Job mama!!

Congrats to this young lady.I had 100% natural births. Both came so quickly there wasn't time to give me any thing at all. My oldest was born 20 minutes after I arrived at the hospital & my youngest was born just 8 minutes after arriving at the hospital. Fortunately that was my first lesson on how to live with extreme pain Fibromyalgia has caused. If you can do your delivery without any meds both mom and baby are way better off. I also know not all women can handle it & sometimes it's the best for both mom & baby to have meds.
