I'll ask my husband questions about these types of details, but he doesn't remember either. </p> <p>It is probably good we skipped video, although I do wish we had thought about capturing some of those first moments on video. The pictures of me nursing me daughter for the first time are hilarious. I look SO HAPPPYYYYYYYY! It took me about 10 minutes to order my first meal after surgery b/c I talked slower than a super-stoned stoner. My husband was horrified. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522222 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 09:37:28 +0000 regberadaisy 2522222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I was too busy "birthing". :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522221 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 09:34:24 +0000 mrsjyw 2522221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't with either kids! I think I posted a pic before heading to the hospital for DS1 and maybe in my due date thread? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522211 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 09:28:15 +0000 lilyann 2522211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did not with my first but did with my second! I didn't update as much as I wanted but my labors just last forever and the updates would have been boring. I had a VBAC with my second and loved reading those experiences before I had mine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522199 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 09:17:17 +0000 LBee 2522199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: I cracked up at the "getting my bikini line shaved" part. I will say walking in to the hospital for my c-section was super surreal / awkward - "Hi, I'm here to get my stomach cut open and an elective MASSIVE needle in my back. Where should I put my underwear?"</p> <p>We actually have a film of after my son was born for about an hour and I cringe when I watch it. My husband is like "Lbee, sweetie, they are giving DS a bath. Do you want me to wheel your bed over?" ... I say, "No, I'm busy waiting for the light to light up again so I can give myself more morphine." CLASSY. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522190 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 08:58:39 +0000 Happygal 2522190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LBee: hee hee. I'm imagining what the updates for my scheduled csection would have been like....can't believe we're late this morning....getting my bikini line shaved now....IV is in, walking down the hall....high on meds, wheee!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522177 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 08:38:51 +0000 LBee 2522177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a scheduled CS so it wasn't particularly fascinating. </p> <p>I actually really miss birth stories / birth in progress. They never happen anymore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522170 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 08:33:04 +0000 Happygal 2522170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I might share with a smaller group I've connected with, but not the larger boards. I also can't imagine wanting to do that during intense labor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522056 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 03:25:17 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2522056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I may post a birth story, but I will be off my phone during the labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522040 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 23:52:44 +0000 MrsB2012 2522040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't for either. I like reading them though! It just never crossed my mind, and honestly I wouldn't really have time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522031 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 23:16:29 +0000 MaisyMay 2522031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: when in labor with LO2 1 days ago, I reread my in labor post from LO1 and it helped a lot. For LO2, I just posted in the labor watch thread for my month, but I am thinking of doing a birth story past at some point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522022 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 22:54:10 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2522022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Eieio: yay! Please do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522010 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 22:17:46 +0000 coopsmama 2522010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for my second! I would for my third, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522002 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 21:53:27 +0000 chopsuey 2522002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha I did a birth in progress for DS, but I don't see it on this board!<br /> Found it, read it, laughed and almost cried, moved it! ❤️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2522001 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 21:52:39 +0000 Eieio 2522001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sure!!! We're 15 hours away from our expectant moms csection. I will do a birth in progress I think!! They are fun :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521994 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 21:39:43 +0000 lovehoneybee 2521994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did with my first! I go back and read it around his birthday! My second was a planned c-section, and I didn't think it would be fun to read 😋 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521988 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 21:33:51 +0000 youboots 2521988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did but on our Mar 15 private group on FB, not here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521982 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 21:29:27 +0000 Torchwood 2521982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I absolutely would have/would in the future! I'd like the support and the bit of a record of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521880 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 19:37:18 +0000 autumnlove 2521880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521830 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 19:00:41 +0000 Foodnerd81 2521830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't but I did update my due date month group. With my second there was barely time anyway! But I think I updated HB before my family both times. You all certainly knew I was pregnant first! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521782 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 18:02:20 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2521782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for my first but not for my second or third. Repeat C-Sections aren't that exciting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521774 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 17:52:16 +0000 autumnlove 2521774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did but I was just checking in for a RCS so it wasn't very exciting. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521762 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 17:27:56 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2521762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. I read it recently and was touched all over again by all the support I received. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521758 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 17:23:31 +0000 jaguar 2521758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually can't remember if I did or not. :o </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521745 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 17:04:51 +0000 avivoca 2521745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I updated my labor board when I thought I was having contractions. I had no interest in updating SM while in labor and I probably won't do it this time either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521744 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 17:03:10 +0000 Boogs 2521744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember if I did. I enjoy reading them, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-start-a-thread-in-birth-in-progress#post-2521733 Mon, 11 Apr 2016 16:51:17 +0000 BSB 2521733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went down memory lane to read my birth in progress thread. Wow! Brings back memories and love all the support I got.</p> <p>Anyway, I looked and the last time someone posted in the 'Birth in Progress' board was 3 months ago. </p> <p>We need to revive that board again. <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/board/birth-in-progress" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/board/birth-in-progress</a></p> <p>Will you create a thread when you go into labor?<br /> Or maybe explain why you won't? </p>
