Mom Friends

In this episode Remi answers all of your questions to get even more details about her wild birth:

• How would you describe the pain? How painful do you rate it? Was it what you expected?
• Looking back is there anything you'd change about preparing and planning for labor? Or did you feel like you did everything you could to prep?
• If you had to do labor and delivery all over again, what would you do differently, if anything? Do you wish you had gotten an epidural close to arrival instead? Would you have declined the pitocin?
• Would you have another hospital birth, if you had another one?
• Anything you would change for your next birth?
• Should I suggest hospital staff to suggest positions through all labor or should that come from a doula I bring only?
• Were you worried about pooping while pushing?
• Was any of the 3 doctors you had your actual OB?
• Had you met the second OB, the one that was awful, beforehand?
• Can you request a specific room in advanced?
• What do you think caused contractions to slow down when they were already at 1-2min and 10cm? What did you feel was the reason as to why you were 10cm dilated, but things weren’t progressing?
• I heard an epidural was only avail until a certain point n labor, is it true?
• What would you advice for partners to know before to support labor?
• Any tips to refuse interventions like the c section or cervical checks?
• What was the ONE most efficient way to manage pain?
• Did Nate have gloves to cut the cord?
• How to deal with rude staff? I experienced it and I was so sad. Any tips in success in communicating with them and not letting them disrupt your mindset?
• What was the final position that you pushed in, did you try other positions when you were actively pushing with the last doctor?
• How long did you wait for delayed cord clamping?
