One of my biggest fears about conceiving is that once it's done there's no going back. And I'm so excited and want it so…

if it's any consolation, you could always do a water birth. the water makes it a lot less painful and it's still completely natural if you get to where you would want that :)

@3xmeislove, I think maybe it's all the needles and the cutting and the tearing. Sometimes I can barely handle my period cramps when I'm having a bad month. Also being so young I haven't had all the gynecologist exams a lot of other moms have so I'm not used to people just doing down there and stick things where they want them. I had to call and make an appointment to get my first Pap smear because I figured it's essential to have had one if I'm planning on conceiving. I better get used to it now. 😶

I feel the same way

@cstrauser, i gotcha , well pap smears aren't as bad as they sound :) i was just barely 19 when i was pregnant with my first and I was definitely not used to anything but it wasn't bad. if you get a midwife for before and when you do get pregnant they are amazing at a lot of things :)

@3xmeislove, it's honestly so relieving to hear that other people had babies at my age and have been perfectly fine. I get a lot of comments from my friends and family for choosing to start my family so young. Mostly that I'm giving my life away and I'll regret not waiting later and I won't have the money to take care of a baby. But I have a game plan. And if other mommies can do it then so can I.

no you wont ever regret it :) it may feel easier to have waited but I wouldn't trade it for anything. its hard to do it financially for anyone no matter the age, just be careful after your first with sex because you can have a 2 month old and be pregnant again lol that's when it's really tough haha

Haha I have two kids and am pregnant again so I know what labor is like and I'm not ready to do that again either. No way. But baby has to come out some how and honestly the pain is instantly gone once you see the little baby you've been carrying with you for 9 months. It's amazing
