What did you ladies do during your last trimester to not go crazy? I'm sure everyone gets nervous about giving birth but I feel like it's all so overwhelming to think about & now it's so close. I suffered from panic attacks & anxiety prior to getting pregnant & im so worried that when the time comes it's going to be absolutely terrible because of my anxiety. I just want to be able to not over think & enjoy it.
Labor is really awful, I'm not going to lie to you but millions of women get through it, and you can too. I have a pretty low pain tolerance and I got through it without an epidural. Getting closer to 9 and 10 cm I felt like the medicine I had wasn't enough but there was no going back and as soon as my boys were born my heart was so full none of that mattered anymore. Just keep your mind on the reward at the end!
Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate it! @m.bullock to be honest it's not even the actual labor that I'm worried about. Hospitals make me uneasy & having to take any type of medicine, even Advil, gives me anxiety. I hate knowing I have no way of controlling what's going to happen 🙈 I hope it all goes by super quick & easy so I can just come back home once its over!
