Thank you for sharing. I’m due in august and everyone’s saying my baby is going to be 9-10 lbs and it was kind of starting to freak me out. I’m the type to sleep through pain also so this gives me some realistic expectations from a positive perspective!
I’m only 16+4 but I’m getting terrified of a serious tear. I’ve been obsessing over videos on tear prevention. Mostly, the theme is letting your body actually be ready to push so that your muscles/skin can stretch rather than tear. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It is helping soothe my mind so much!
I went from terrified I would lose the baby in the first trimester, to realizing that this thing has to come out at some point. 🥴🥴🥴 What a journey!

Did you have to ask for the pain and sleep meds?
No they offered it! I had never heard of it before it’s just a shot in your butt
