i was shocked at how much pain i could handle, my contractions were super off the charts, my epidural had to be done twice because i could still feel a lot of pain, by the time it came to push my epidural was practically failing & i felt just about everything...
it didn't really hurt much, the contractions were pretty bad but the rest was a breeze ♡
makes me feel like i can take on the world lmao, & when i get scared or when i got my first tattoo i quoted the girl from Ted yelling "I GAVE BIRTH ONCE BITCH" lmao 😂😂😂

I was told at my babyshower last night that it's all about mind control. I have a very low pain tolerance. but a nice woman told me "it's all about mind control. it's gonna hurt a little. but every second is progress. as soon as that baby is almost out, every thought about pain stops and your determination kicks in because you're gonna forget about all the pain as soon. as you hear the baby is crowning. the baby's head is out, and the second you hear the cry and that doctor hands you your baby. pain is only temporary. the end result lasts a lifetime "

I felt the same way before I had my daughter...but all I remember is pushing and hearing my daughter cry for the first time it was amazing

That is so true I was the same way really scared because all I heard was that labor was difficult and painful but once You're there all You think about is pushing so You can get to see Your Beautiful Baby and have Her/Him in Your arms. It all happens so fast and quick You don't even have time to think of the pain. (Those were the words my teacher told Me and they helped Me calm down once I was in labor) 💜

Omg I needed to hear this..I've been soooo scared bc I'm a huge baby with pain! 😣
