I'm no doctor, but this just sounds WRONG! Kim Kardashian related: open if you dare

"It's crazy because I had such an easy delivery, but right after you deliver the baby lives in this sac – the placenta – then you kind of give birth to that and it just kind of comes out. Mine went right back in me because it was stuck to a part of my uterus that it grew into," she explained.

The doctor put his arm in me to here. He had to scrape it off with his fingernails to get it off of my inner lining.

According to kim k, the baby lives in the placenta and hers grew legs and ran right back up inside ...not even going to poke fun at the fingernail shit. That's just completely unbelievable.

Makes me happy I gave birth to 3 children for free at the NHS rather than spend thousands in some celeb hospital like Kim k and risk getting fingernailed by a "doctor"....

(Disclaimer: I don't watch this shit, I just read the story on yahoo :))

OMG Marnie I must have blocked out the memory but that happened to me with dc1 too , I can remember sitting in a huge pool of blood after my placenta finally came out - I was ok though, not life threatening.

Do you think this thread should have some kind of warning for pg women not to read ?

God's teeth.

The only family member I feel for are the me. Rob is obviously having issues, not willing to work them out on camera, so cast aside. Bruce was an Olympic winning athlete, possibly transitioning from male to female. Instead of the children (who he raised like his own) supporting him, they are using it as a way to make money.

The Kardashians are the epitome of everything that is wrong with the world.

I can never understand how an arm or hand can fit up there

Think of a baby.
Look at your hand.

Soup - that's what I thought!! Frankly, after a baby has come out an arm seems piffling!

But the cervix isn't dilated to 10cm when retained placenta is removed is it? Or do they dilate it? Hand up dilated cervix is fine. Hand up Undilated cervix: ouch.

I remember my last two placentas being removed. The last time the midwife rubbed my abdomen, I felt a twinge in my stomach and pain in my vagina as it was born. DH said it looked like a big piece of red meat.

Crap on a cracker, I am never having another baby. I had no idea arms could go up there.
Shiver....

Yeah, times like this I'm glad we've done our bit for the good of mankind and I don't have to worry about stuff like this anymore .

I am so glad that I was pretty out of it by the time they were elbow deep removing my placenta. I imagine it might have been more worrying and traumatic otherwise. I just remember being pissed off that I'd gone through all the agony of birth only to be given a spinal AFTER. That and the student mud wife's face as she tugged on my cord and it snapped, she just sort of looked at the end of it and said 'oh...'

I guess you had to be there

If I hadn't already had my children I wouldn't be having any after reading this thread.

If I was pregnant right now I would be shitting a brick about giving birth.

This is some scary shit!

The cervix will still be dilated, it is usually very soon after birth. My placenta was massive no way it would fit through a closed cervix.

And yes yes to the uh oh looks between members of staff when your cord snaps!

Why on earth would she think that anyone needs to know this sort of information about her?

Crap i forgot about pregnant women might read the thread just to point out despite the manual removal i had a couple of stitches and nothing else okay a load of bruising with the second one but still only a couple of stitches and i was planning on not having more children i dont have ptsd or need councelling or anything! So if your pregnant and reading this dont panic what happened to me is not common and easily dealt with by surgen usually doesnt take long and with ds1 i was decorating the lounge within a week

I think i over shared a little sorry

I find it vulgar when she keeps on going on about "trying for a baby"...I don't know anyone in real life who announces this kind of information. The only person I ever told I was trying for a baby to was my doctor so I could get some folic acid

I got the choice between a spinal and theatre or manual removal on the delivery ward so I could go and see my ill newborn a lot earlier. Turns out none of the midwives agreed with the doctor and all thought I should just have been taken to theatre. Was just the other week. I particularly didn't enjoy the 'checking for membranes' afterwards especially as he told me if would hurt more than the placenta removal. There won't be another baby with my current opinion and this would be one of the factors.

I'm with her....from what friends who do the job and friends who have had the job done tell me
No pleasant

WTAF?

I don't like to poke fun at people in general but she sounds very stupid.

Surely that's 8 year old science - so why she doesn't get it I am left to guess?

Actually if she had placenta percreta what she is saying might be true

Also tbh I think generally people on here are being a little unkind to a mother who has had some trauma during childbirth. If she wasn't famous we'd be saying poor thing

Actually, if you've read the whole thread, you'll see she's not as thick as you thought. Some issues with terminology but basically right.

What a nasty thread. She's probably not as "thick" as you think. It sounds like she had placenta accreta. This can be incredibly dangerous and lead to maternal death or the need for a hysterectomy. HTH.

Surely they would not have reached in and pulled the placenta out had that been the case. I suspect she simply meant where the placenta was attached rather than grown in.
