Hi all. Hoping to hear from anyone who has had a difficult or traumatic birth at Morristown Medical Center involving Morris County OBGYN and/or their Lifeline covering physicians (Madison Ave OB/GYN or The Women's Care Source).

What happened:

My wife was induced at 37 weeks for high blood pressure and was on Pitocin for 3 days. At no point did any doctor discuss the risks of a multi-day induction or extended Pitocin use with us.

Over those 3 days she was seen by 4 different doctors (our OB was only involved for 24 hours throughout the entire ordeal). After our baby's heart rate began showing decelerations for an extended period of time, she had a C-section. Because she'd been on an epidural for 2 days and it was no longer effectively blocking pain, she could feel what was happening during the surgery. I had to advocate for her to be put under general anesthesia mid-procedure.

She hemorrhaged after the C-section which led to an emergency, life-saving hysterectomy.

What we're trying to understand:

Looking back, it felt like the team was reluctant to move to a C-section despite the prolonged induction and lack of progress. We're also wondering whether 3 straight days on Pitocin played a role in what happened.

If anyone has experienced or been told about something similar, we'd really like to hear from you.

While we are all sweating out real feel temps in the 110 plus heat, the local wild life is too and can’t get a break.

It hasn’t rained hard recently (depending on where you live) near me so I filled an old dog water bowl I have with ice water this morning. Within 30 seconds I had a chipmunk lapping the water up a foot away from me. When I went to change it, there were a few small bird feathers in it.

If you can do so, and it’s safe for you to do so, please consider putting out water for the wildlife. This heat is no joke for any of us.

Hey everyone, Pulse USA Morristown here!

We are putting together a community calendar focused on Morristown and the surrounding area, and we want to make sure it highlights the events people actually care about.

We are looking for recurring and one-time events like:

• Farmers markets
• Live music
• Trivia nights
• Festivals & Street Fairs
• Charity events & fundraisers
• Car shows
• Art shows
• Food & drink specials
• Family-friendly activities
• Sports leagues & tournaments
• Networking events
• Seasonal events (Halloween, holiday markets, etc.)

If you know of an event, big or small, drop it below! It doesn't have to be hosted in Morristown either; nearby towns are welcome too.

If you're an organizer, feel free to share:

• Event name
• Where it's held
• How often it happens
• A website or social media page (if applicable)

The goal is to create a calendar that's actually useful for locals looking for something to do.

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I’m in North Jersey, near Morristown, and I’m looking for recommendations on where to watch the Mexico vs. Ecuador game. I’m going with my cousins (we’re all around 26), and we want a fun, lively environment with good people to celebrate. Any local spots you recommend for a great watch party vibe?

What's your favorite place for wraps in town?

Caesar, buffalo chicken, or any wrap in general

Been looking to vend at farmers markets and want to hit up as many markets so I can vend in some of them. I have a family bakery and wanna spread to other local towns. If anyone knows what are some good farmers markets around that are lacking in bread and pastries lmk

Hey all,

I just moved to Morristown, and I'm hoping to find a gym or personal trainer to work with.

I'm plus size and very nervous about going back to the gym (I did personal training and weight lifting 2018 - 2021). Would love any suggestions of great gym experiences of personal trainers that people have encountered.

Thanks!

Hi yall!

Just moved up here from Mercer county NJ, and previously lived in Bergen county. Had so many great parks and trails in those two regions and was wondering where/if I may find something similar?

Minimal amount I run is 3 miles, and can get up to 10 occasionally. Would appreciate any insight you guys have!

Thank you so much!
