Girls who have given birth, advise first-time mothers on how to behave…

Girls who have given birth, advise first-time mothers on how to behave? Maybe you can tell them from your own mistakes and knowledge how to be? What should they avoid? It doesn't matter what it is: childbirth, after, 9 months of pregnancy. In general, what would you say to yourself now being pregnant then?

You sly little thing?

I'd only tell myself during pregnancy "don't whine," because the whole pregnancy was spent in tears — I drove myself to it, I cried on my own ? And I'd also tell myself "buy everything for the baby in advance, set money aside from your paycheck, and don't just piss it away, so there's enough for maternity leave" ?

1237, Exactly, I cry all the time, I drive myself into hysterics, literally whining nonstop—almost every day... either depression or circumstances...

Валерия, It's probably incurable during pregnancy ?

Валерия, At this stage it's your hormones... it will get easier later, but around 30 weeks most likely all of this will come back.

Viktoria, I'm in such a state right now that I could just start crying over any little thing?

Дарья, Yes, yes, it came back to me too... I don't know if it'll pass or stay until delivery... I was fine personally from about 19 weeks until around 30... now for two weeks I couldn't even get up, the morning sickness returned, blood pressure, pains, nerves, I'm lying here bawling. ??

I'd tell myself to sleep ALWAYS! Because now I have sleep problems ? and to eat lots and lots of everything, since many things are off-limits while breastfeeding. Although I did all that during pregnancy, now it's never enough ? Also, during labor, nature will tell you what to do — the main thing is not to scream (I know, it will be hard not to scream) and try to breathe deeply ?? Don't be shy and ask the nurses or your husband to massage your lower back during contractions, it really helps. Drink plenty during labor. AND DON'T BE EMBARRASSED! Don't be embarrassed that during labor you might involuntarily poop ? — I didn't have that, but I wasn't embarrassed. Know that it's normal! After birth, ask the doctors everything, ask them to show you how to swaddle, how to do breast massage, and so on. Because when you get home you'll have a million questions at once ? Also, I strongly recommend studying breastfeeding before labor. I went to breastfeeding consultations — that knowledge has really come in handy! If you don't have that option, take lessons on YouTube. I've already combed through all of YouTube, there's tons of information, for free ??? I recommend Nina Zaichenko's channel; it's literally everything about labor, postpartum and more ?

From my own experience, everything you're about to read about breathing techniques and all that you'll forget during contractions?? But someone above was right about feeling embarrassed — screw it) I wasn't embarrassed at all; now I won't go back to give birth there, I'll go to a different maternity hospital — I'm sure they still remember me there, I'm even embarrassed ??

Динара, About breathing techniques — oh yeah. At home when I was having contractions, my husband was like: BREATHE! And I was like: HOW AM I EVEN SUPPOSED TO BREATHE???? I almost told him to get lost, basically ???

Виктория, I remember that I asked to be cut while I was still alive?? As for the breathing, I definitely don't remember anything?

From the moment you get to the maternity ward, listen to the recommendations of the doctor and the obstetrician. Listen and follow them. I panicked during my first delivery and didn't listen to anyone. As a result, I tore everywhere possible, and I even jerked and somehow pinched my pelvic bones. In short, it took six months to heal, and with a small baby — it's hell.

Вот тут написали слушайте врача и акушерку .) Тут как повезёт ) Когда рожала второй раз просто все молчали.. ещё и давление высокое было. У меня началась паника,я все забыла.. как дышать что делать.. начала сознание терять . Поэтому мой совет,надо держать себя в руках и быть ко всему готовой . И если чувствуете при родах,что силы вас покидают ,не закрывать глаза,ни в коем случае! Потому что можно отключиться . Вообщем заранее готовьте себя ко всему) Как солдат перед битвой)) Лёгких родов ?
