@cwev, I felt the same, I'm a control freak but I felt in control the whole time until it came to pushing, I just slowed my breathing and used gas and air when needed. just think about the end result. I would do it again tomorrow I loved my birth. and once your baby is in your arms you completely forget about the pain you've just been through x

@cwev, i tore with my son as well. so the few days after birth were pretty rough too. my boobs were engorged and monstrous lol i think im scared of being in charge of a whole new person too lol

@cwev it might be cos you were in control of most those things. I'm scared about the lack of control im gonna have and that i dont know exactly how/when its going to happen lol the pain is very intense, ive got a 9 year old but feel like a new mum. im scared about how long its gonna last too lol

@bubble, The pain!!! Which is silly coz iv voluntarily gone though 16hrs of tattooing, 6 tough mudders (one 3 days after I broke my toe!), marathons, 3 peak challenge, a 100km hike in 24 hrs and I suffered with gall stones for 2 years which is the most agonising constant pain I've ever felt so I wouldn't say I'm a wimp!! I just can't stop my self freaking out over how much pain I'm going to be in!! :( what r u worrying about? X

@cwev, im feeling the same. worrying about every little detail! anything in particular your anxious about? xx
