One Born Every Minute.

The new season of One Born Every Minute has started. I'm watching the first 3 episodes on Lifetime.com right now. It's making me want to have another baby so bad! The very first episode of the season was cray. The girls mom and her boyfriends mom were both there. They ended up getting into a physical fight. It was insane. If my family ever did that I would have them banned from the hospital for the rest of my stay.

I didn't have a birth plan with Kayelynn. I just knew I didn't want to get an epidural. I wanted to go natural so bad... But I ended up not being able to. It didn't help that I had everyone telling me that I couldn't do it. So, my next time around, I'm not letting anyone say anything negative. People around me should be encouraging me, not telling me that I can't do it.

I hated the feeling of the epidural. I couldn't stand not being able to feel my legs. After I had Kayelynn, my left leg stayed numb for the longest time. It was so scary. I thought it was never going to get feeling back!

Anyway... Next time around I am going to have a plan. If my plan doesn't work that's okay. But- I want my doctor, nurses, and family to know my plan and go by it. I'm going to have everything planned down to who is in the room. Last time around Brian, my mom, my mom's mom, and Brian's grandma were in the room. I didn't want Brian's grandma in the room. I wanted my dad's mom in there instead. Brian's grandma saw Seth born... So I thought it was only fair that my 2 grandmas got to be in the room. I was pissed off that id didn't work that way. So.. Next time it's going to be Brian, my dad's mom, and my mom. Also if they let me have 4 my bfffff will be in there too.

And, I'm not dealing with bitch nurses. After Kayelynn was born I knew that if she didn't eat a certain amount she wouldn't be allowed to go home. For the first 24 hours almost Kayelynn wouldn't latch on. My 1st nurse said to just wait. Finally I demanded formula. I told them I knew that my baby was starving and that I wanted formula at that exact moment. They finally got the formula. The wanted her to eat about 75cc's every 3 hours. She wouldn't so instead I was giving her around 30-35cc's every hour and a half. Basically the same amount. Well, this one nurse came in and started bitching me out saying I was feeding her too much. I was so furious. A baby isn't going to eat if they aren't hungry. There isn't a difference in feeding your baby 75 ccs every 3 hours or every 35ccs 1.5 hours. It's the same amount (Not to mention she gave my baby the Hep. shot without my consent and after I specifically told her I didn't want her getting it.)

We got a call from the Home Nurse after her visit. Kayelynn's Bilirubin level was super high. They told us to get her to the hospital ASAP. (If you didn't know, if a baby has too high of a bilirubin level for too long - it can cause brain damage.) At the hospital I asked about her not eating for 24 hours. They straight up told me that that could be a reason that her levels didn't go down. They didn't say it was the def. cause, but your baby gets rid of bilirubin by pooping- if they aren't eating they aren't pooping. 

I got a call asking about my stay.. I went off on the lady. I told her about the nurse not giving me formula and then the other nurse yelling at me saying I was feeding her too much. That same nurse is the one who gave Kayelynn the shot w/o my consent. She was shocked and I think I got that nurse fired. No joke.

I would love to have a home birth so bad.

Psh. All this and I don't have anything to worry about yet. Got AF yesterday. >=[
