As a pregnant lady I read as many stories as I could and soooo many of the c-section stories were terrifying as were the stories of LGA babies. I felt like I owed it to other mamas to leave a happier message. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-691308 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 11:02:47 +0000 littlebittyhouse 691308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just did - for the first time!</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birth-story-of-baby-g" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birth-story-of-baby-g</a></p> <p>I've been wanting to but was just too chicken. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-688024 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:56:09 +0000 Arden 688024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to, I just have to finish processing it for myself. I'll probably post it in a week or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-688020 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:53:57 +0000 Smurfette 688020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet! I need too though. I made DH take notes so I could. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-687921 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:31:57 +0000 pregnantbee 687921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. I loved reading others' stories and thought that others might like to read mine. I also wanted to have it written so I can remember all of the little details.</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-pregnantbees-birth-story" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-pregnantbees-birth-story</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-687893 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:27:04 +0000 2PeasinaPod 687893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Sorry to hear that yours was so scary. I feel mine was that way as well. Writing it almost helped me heal from it a little better! </p> <p>Here's mine. I still cry re-reading it...but more out of sadness that it was so scary not knowing how LO was.</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/samuels-birth-story-how-2peas-became-3peas" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/samuels-birth-story-how-2peas-became-3peas</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-687876 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:23:10 +0000 SugarplumsMom 687876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I intended to write one, but never got around to it. I might still do it even though it's been ages since then. I have all the hospital notes so I'll know the details of what and exactly when. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-687846 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:17:40 +0000 loveisstrange 687846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!

I have a birth story that my midwife wrote for me though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686630 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 11:01:54 +0000 lindseykaye 686630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wrote a short version and shared it with the ladies on the November 2012 board when I announced that she had arrived <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hey-nov-2012-mamas/page/36" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hey-nov-2012-mamas/page/36</a>.</p> <p>Then I wrote a much longer, detailed version that is just for LO that I printed and put in her baby book. DH also wrote his version of the day and we have that keepsake as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686574 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 10:49:38 +0000 LemonLong 686574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my husband wrote it from his perspective though!

The really intimate moments that stand out in my memory I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing online anyways; they're just between DH LO and I. I like reading birth stories though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686555 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 10:45:29 +0000 mrskc 686555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!

My birth story is also a little boring too other than totally not paying attention to labor signs all day at work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686532 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 10:40:14 +0000 prettylizy 686532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love re-reading it!<br /> <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prettybabys-super-long-birth-story" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prettybabys-super-long-birth-story</a><br /> I can still feel my excitment about it all, 13 months later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686503 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 10:32:28 +0000 mrsjyw 686503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, so glad I wrote it for memory's sake!</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-dubs-birth-story-long" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-dubs-birth-story-long</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686477 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 10:26:35 +0000 mediagirl 686477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did.

I didn't share because it was long, complicated, and scary . . .

To me, it's something really private and just for the three of us. I wrote my son a letter and it's in his baby book, in case he ever wants to know more about the day he came into the world. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-share-your-birth-story#post-686358 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 09:52:32 +0000 lovehoneybee 686358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, because I love reading them, so sharing mine was a no-brainer.
