Top 5 Tips for Coping With Your Labor and Delivery

!9#: Top 5 Tips for Coping With Your Labor and Delivery

I have have given birth to one child so far and therefore have only one personal birth experience to share. But... I did it without an epidural, so I do have a good idea of what it feels like. I want to share the things that helped me the most throughout my 7 hours of excruciating pain.

1. If you are panicking and fearful about the pain, change your mindset and remember that women are built to deliver babies. Delivering a baby is probably the most painful experience that most women will ever go through and you have every reason to be nervous about the unknown. Just remember that it is a natural process, not an indication that something is wrong. Don't be afraid and don't fight against what your body needs to do.

2. Breathe. How many people have told you to "just breathe through it"? What does that even mean? It sounded like a horrible pain management technique to me. The trick is, as I stated above, to let your body do what it needs to do. Focusing on your breathing forces you to breathe. Imagine that?!? Many people will cringe and clench their fists and hold their breath. This triggers the fight or flight response and heightens your sensitivity. Get plenty of oxygen flowing through your body and don't go into protection mode. Research shows that protection mode (fighting the pain through clenching) actually slows down the birthing process.

3. Count to 10. If I had only one thing to share, it would be the 10 second rule. I don't even remember from where I got this golden nugget, but it worked. When the contraction is getting to be unbearable, start counting. By the time you reach 6, the worst is probably over. That means that the unbearable pain only lasts for 6 seconds! That doesn't seem so bad, does it? Remember that each contraction is one behind you and your body is that much closer to delivering your baby. It is not an endless process - your baby will be arriving shortly.

4. Prepare your coach. I didn't have a doula but I can see why people hire them. Instead, I had my incredible husband. We did prenatal classes and it wasn't until then that he realized how important his task was. A woman in labor needs a coach. Someone who is firm, compassionate and encouraging. I don't remember how many times he forced me to look him in the eye and told me how good I was doing and that he was right there beside me. He wiped my tears and convinced me that I was strong enough to do this.

Coaches don't sit on the sidelines and watch the game. They are involved and try to make things go as smoothly as possible. Don't yell at your coach or demand that they act a certain way. Do your research and communicate how you want things to go well before you go into labor. If you don't think that your spouse is cut out for the job, hire a doula or invite someone who has all the traits you are looking for. The coach has a very difficult and exhausting task, especially if it is a loved one. It can't be easy to watch someone in so much pain. They might not feel the pain but they are certainly experiencing labor in a different way. Thank them and let them know how grateful you are that they are helping you. It will change your perspective...

5. Laughing Gas. That should say it all... Unfortunately, the USA doesn't offer laughing gas to their patients. I cannot understand that one. It is harmless, cheap and easy to use. If it is available to you, order it. You will not lose consciousness or be flying high. It just takes the edge of the pain and slightly removes you from the severity. The other advantage is that you are focusing on your breathing because that's the only way to make it work. As soon as you take a couple breaths of regular air, you will be right back to normal. The downside (which no one warned me about) is that they take it away when it is time to push.

I hope that you find help in some of these tricks that I have been taught. Go to prenatal classes and do your research so you have some idea of what you're getting into. Listening to everyone's horror stories is a sure way to sleepless nights. Go into it open-minded. I knew that I wanted to go without the epidural but I also made it clear that if it was unbearable, I was open to getting an epidural. I expected pain but it wasn't until after it was all over with that I realized how strong my pain tolerance was. If I was afraid and didn't want to feel any pain, I would have had the needle jabbed into my back within the first hour. It was such a satisfying feeling to have experienced a natural childbirth. With the right mindset, anyone can do it. After all, that is what our body is meant to do.

Take Me Along - Chapter 26

Take Me Along - Chapter 26 (AN: Please don't correct me on how to wash a baby. I frankly don't need to know the right way.) Demi's POV The next few days go by and I'm running on minimal amounts of sleep. It seems like every time Joe and I put Marie in her crib, she starts to cry. But when Joe plucks her out, she gets quiet and snuggles in his arms. Joe and I found a house and we're going to look at it today with my mom. She's coming over early though to show Joe and I how to give Marie a bath. Miley and Selena are here as well because they're going to babysit while we're looking at the house. My mom knocks around 9 and I'm still lying in my bed. Marie was up at 6 and has been up since then with Joe. If Joe's tired, he always has a way of hiding it. "Demi," my mom says. I guess Miley and Selena let her in. "Come on, get up and ready. We're leaving in an hour and a half." I groan and crawl out of bed. She leaves and I get changed then make my hair look presentable. "Aren't you tired?" I ask Joe, sitting back on the bed next to him. He just shrugs. "Okay, well come on," I say, taking Marie from him. "We're gonna give you a bath." I tell her. I take her into the kitchen with Joe following. My mom is already running the water in the sink. She's got baby soap and towels folded on the counter. "So, you want the water to be room temperature. Not too hot, not too cold." She explains. I nod and undress Marie. "Unless you have a fancy washing station for the baby, you just have to ...

Loving Spankings- Part I

!9#: Loving Spankings- Part I

It is rare that I am given the opportunity to bring such a poignant and articulate story to my reader's as this. Carol has given me permission to quote or use her story as I deem useful.

While not everyone has the same outcome from spankings as Carol did--there are millions of people, who are too embarrassed and humiliated to tell their story or they believe as so many people do--"it didn't do me any harm so it can't do my child any harm." Unlike Carol, they don't connect the cause and effect of their emotional dysfunction and physical illnesses to their 'Loving Spankings." Please read Carol's story in its entirety, because first-person truth is better than any research findings done by a clinical double blind study or case studies.

Non-abusive "Loving Spankings" Messed Me Up For Life

When I was a little girl and my mother thought I required discipline, she would pull me face down across her lap and give me a series of stinging slaps of her hand on my bare buttocks while I cried. In fifteen seconds it was over. I would be in tears and clutching my bottom for a minute or so, but it didn't really hurt much after that, just a hot itch. My rear end would be a solid pink right afterwards. But in a few hours it would be back to normal. And that was that.

I was not "abused" as a child, just "spanked with love." She never left a bruise when she "lovingly spanked" me. The permanent marks were inside, not outside.

Mother firmly believed in spankings as discipline for her children because they "worked" so well. All she needed to do if my behavior displeased her was say, "Carol, do you want a spanking?" and that would frighten me into obeying her. And if she told me to do the dishes and I didn't do them very well and got spanked for it you can bet those dishes were unusually spotless for the next couple of days. But spankings also left me with lifelong emotional and sexual problems that I still don't know how to fix despite years of therapy. My mother got an obedient daughter and cleaner dishes and I got a lifelong mess inside me.

If I were growing up today, Mother could post on parenting web forums about how "effective" spankings are as discipline for her daughters. She could brush aside concerns about emotional harm saying "an hour after I spank her, Carol is happily playing or doing her chores." She could talk about my good grades in school. She could talk about how polite I am and respectful to my elders, and how she gets compliments from other adults about what a good girl I am in public. And if anyone tried to warn her that she might give her child a fetish, she could laugh and say, "Carol would never turn out like that. She hates to be spanked!" And nothing she said would be a lie.

I tried so hard to be good. But sooner or later I always found myself face down across my mother's lap getting yet another spanking. I just couldn't control it - except in my fantasies. In fantasy I could make everything happen just so, as if it really were under my control. My mother's preferred discipline method emotionally upset me so much that I sexualized it - everything about it: the kind of clothing she wore and I wore, the things she would say before and after my spanking, the position she put me in, on and on. Fantasy let me cope with my trauma and get a pretend feeling of control over something really out of my control. When I imagined myself as a naughty girl over her Mommy's lap getting her bare little bottom spanked I pictured myself crying and begging the Mommy to stop. Yet it was my fantasy so really I had total control. And by eroticizing, I made something awful and frightening into something delightful and pleasant.

And it worked. Becoming a spankophile at an early age kept me from falling apart. It comforted me when nothing else could. It made me feel in control when I wasn't. And it gave me a make-believe escape from something for which there was no true escape. (How do you escape when it's your very own Mommy who is hurting you???) And now I am stuck with it for the rest of my life.

Parents who say, "it didn't do me any harm so it can't do my child any harm" just don't get it. Everyone is different. My mother got spanked when she was little, and she carried on the same tradition with my sister and me. But my mother didn't become a spankophile. And although my sister got the same kinds of punishments as I did - across the same lap and from the same palm - she didn't become a spankophile either. But I did. There is no way you can tell beforehand which of your spanked children will have a guilty sexualized fixation for the rest of her life. So any parent who spanks their child is putting them at risk. Punishing your child with spankings is just like playing a lottery where if you "win" you mess up your kid for life.
Most spanked kids don't turn out as obsessed as me. But some of us do. And we aren't rare. Growing up I knew two other little girls who both got spanked by their parents and who both loved to play House the same way I did: with play spankings, play spankings, and more play spankings all afternoon without ever getting bored. (At least two of us were strict disciplinarians of our dolls, too!) One girl would even get me to pretend to be her real life mother so we could re-enact actual episodes for which she had been disciplined in her home. For me to meet two others so like myself in this way would be almost impossible if kids like me were rare.

Now I am retired, unmarried, childless, on medication for depression. At a tender age I used my budding sexuality to cope with something I didn't know how else to cope with. And it has left its mark on me forever. I've been paying the price all my life and I will never stop paying. I am unmarried because the circuits in my brain that should have been used for romance were vandalized by spankings instead. I am childless because I never married. So there is a direct link between my spankings, how I coped with them, and my being sexually abnormal, and hence never marrying and having any children of my own.

Not all of the harm is sexual in nature. An "it made me what I am today" pattern emerges whenever someone unexpectedly confronts me in an angry way about something I did. I have a bad habit of saying the first rationalization that pops into my mind, sometimes even lying. It just blurts itself out of me. And I don't know how to change. It goes back so far. It is a habit I learned as a preschooler that sometimes saved me from a bottom warming. It usually didn't, but something that works only occasionally is better than nothing at all.

Another lifelong bad effect of my spankings is that when someone orders me to do something in a stern authoritarian voice, I usually just cave in and do it even if I don't feel right about what I am doing. It just happens, seemingly by itself. And it all goes back to my earliest years. Growing up in my "traditional values" family, children did as they were told and didn't talk back. If you did, Mommy would turn you across her knee, pull down your panties and "teach you a lesson" right then and there. I sure learned my lessons! The trouble is, how do you unlearn that lesson as a grownup out in the world who has to stand up for herself? I just hate myself now whenever I realize that once again I let myself be someone's doormat.

Today's children should not have to go through what I went through. We know more now. Now we have websites such as nospank.net on which someone like me can tell what happened to her without sacrificing her privacy. My mother regretted spanking me once I finally told her about my fetish as an adult. She at least has the excuse that nobody told her how bad the side effects could be. Parents reading this website do not have that excuse anymore. No child should have to sacrifice their developing sexual self just to cope with the painful violence of a parent who claims to love them.

Spanking children is harmful, it is hurtful, it is violent, and it needs to stop. Parents reading this: please don't use physical pain to discipline your children. ### Carol

What is a Baby Monitor and How it Works?

!9#: What is a Baby Monitor and How it Works?

Baby monitors are not only gadgets that can make parenting better for busy parents but are also life savers in more ways than one. If you are thinking of buying a set of these, this is the best time to know more about the functions of this gadget.

Baby monitors is a set up gadgets. The basic types are the audio monitors. It comes with a receiver and transmitter. They usually look like walkie talkies-only smaller and cuter.

The transmitter is placed in your baby's bedroom. It picks up sounds in your baby's room and the sound is transmitted to the receiver. This receiver is held by parents. They can either carry it with them or attach it to their belts so they can hear the sounds their baby is making even at a remote distance.

The range depends on the brand you are using. Some can pick up signals even when you are in the yard or garden. Also, there are brands that include video monitoring. The monitor comes with an audio and a video device that can pick up sounds from your baby's room and can let you see what is happening inside through its monitor.

Some Common Features
Most of the monitors available in the market today can measure the temperature in the room of your baby so you can monitor if the room is too hot or too cold for comfort. There are also monitors with a sensitive pad. This pad is placed under your baby's mattress so you can detect slight movements. This helps parents monitor their baby's breathing and to prevent sudden infant death. When no movement is detected for 20 seconds, it sends off an alert signal to the receiver.

Another good feature of audio monitors is the lullaby feature. The receiver is equipped with buttons for parents to choose music that can be played in the transmitter. Also, it allows parents to talk back to their children.

Some video monitors also have a tilt and pan feature. When your baby moves out of your line of vision, you can tilt the camera and scan the room using your receiver. This way, there is no need to go up to the room of your baby to adjust the camera.

Baby monitors mean two things: security and convenience. If you want to feel secured about monitoring your baby while doing everyday work, get a baby monitor.
