That Magnificent Mama

Yesterday, before the tragedy unfolded I read Joshua 1:9.

God calls us to be brave and courageous, not under our own power by through His.

Charlie Kirk today and for eternity is in the presence of glory. While I feel a sadness for me and our nation of who we lost. A man dedicated to Jesus, family, and America. He truly wanted everyone to find the hope & eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Charlie, we will take it from here. May we all be as bold and courageous to speak the truths of Jesus.

Who regrets they had their bag of water broken by the provider besides me? 🙋‍♀️

Give me a ❤️ if that's you

Pros of AROM (artificial rupture of membranes) - studies show it can shorten labor by one hour

Cons of AROM
❌👆risk of infection 🦠
❌Provider wants you to deliver 24 hours ⏰ from AROM
❌Contractions hurt more 😣
❌Baby no longer has a cushion between his head and cervix
➡️ I’ve seen some infants have swollen and sore heads
❌Less water means less fluid for ease of baby to move around.

Interventions don’t always make birth faster or easier—

More often they create a chain reaction that leads to more interventions.

Natural birth isn’t about avoiding help—it’s about trusting your body, working with your body, to do what it was created to do.

Hard truth moment — it's up to you to prepare for your birth, but I have faith in you. I know you can do it.

This is so important. Please read all my pregnant friends 🥰

This really is me, on my soap box screaming this one out. It can save 1/4 stillborn babies if we just do kick counts right.
I have a BUNCH of articles on my sites about it but here's the cliff notes:
- Start at 27 weeks
- Count how long it takes to get 10 movements (any movement besides hiccups)
- Note that time

After a week or so you'll start to see a pattern, and you want baby to stay in that basic range.
It's best to do it at the same time every day (a time when baby is usually active -- I did after dinner), but just do your best.

It really CAN save lives (sometimes even your own).

WHO SHOULD NOT DO THIS:
If you have trouble with heartburn, high blood pressure, too much amniotic fluid, your baby has an unstable lie or any pregnancy complication; any type of brain injury, or you feel this movement would be unsafe for you.

This is not medical advice

Seek your doctor’s advice if you have any questions about your safety in doing this movement
