ok i need some help from u ladies...i am currently 28 weeks pregnant and and really starting to freak out about labor and delivery. can some of u share positive stories to help calm my nerves and is there anyone else that is freaking out too. if so what helps??
I was terrified of labor, really! But mine was textbook and not too bad. My water broke on its own at 38 + 6 around 1:15pm, my contractions started at about 3:00pm and my son was born at 8:27pm. I had an epidural (it was amazing and I have no complications). I pushed for 45 minutes and he was here! He was born Monday evening and we were home by Wednesday afternoon. Easy peasy 💗
I freak out every time. and it does hurt like hell but our bodies were made for this and I just keep reminding myself of that. I still freak though, until the time comes anyway. try to trust your body.
thank you @emaleejoy i keep trying to tell myself ill be ok
my epidural failed, so I'll never even attempt one again. it's not as bad as you'd think without. contractions hurt worse than baby coming out
that makes me feel a bit better. thank you so much i know it will all be worth it in the end just got to get passed the nerves @mrgmommy2016 @mypreemieprincess
I'm a hypochondriac and such a baby when It comes to pain... Well I was calmer through labor than I am when I get shots, lol. I knew there was a positive outcome. Yes, it hurt... I had back labor but it was only temporary and once I got the epidural it was super easy until I pushed which sucked but again was only temporary and it was the most rewarding thing afterwords. No longer than 5 minutes after I was ready to do it all over again because it's that amazing (: also keep in mind I was in labor for 29 hours and I managed to enjoy every last second! Can't wait for this pregnancy to hurry up and end so I can meet my princess.
the epidural was awesome. I felt him come out but it didn't hurt it was like there was pressure like I had to poop (sorry tmi) then I pushed and it was gone I did fill them stitch me up but that was because my epidural was wearing off but it wasn't bad ether..
thanks ladies its just hard cuz tuesday i coached my sister inlaw through her delivery and it scared me..im scared of the pain mainly and i dont wanna throw up. i do plan to get the epidural and im wondering does that help with the pain also of the baby actually coming out??@mrgmommy2016
well I had a horrrible story BUT I'd do it all over again if I could. my doctor and nurses helped a lot. practicing breathing helps too. and don't stress about it. the less stressed you are the better your body will cooperate with you: ):
its not as bad ad people say I was induced @37 weeks and 5 days I was in labor for awhile but my contractions hurt but the were tolerable I got an epidural at 6 cm all I felt was a little pressure they had to take my first one out due to my spine not being straight it only numbed my right side I still felt the contractions in my left which were still tolerable by a 7 and a half they fix my epidural and I was ready to have a baby I had my son 2 days after the started inducing me and I would do it again in a heart beat I push for 30 mins and my son was here . its worth it its amazing what you body can do
@happy_mama1,
I can't really give any advice seeing this is my first baby and I'm being induced Monday morning... but we can be scared together 😊
Its not as bad as people make it sound and today I found out that not all the time the baby tears You down there. Once You are in that bed all You care about and think about is to push Your Baby out to hold them😍😍
I think I might be pregnant and I'm freaking out 😟😟😟😟 #myfirstpost

I could really use some opinions. I'm stumped and dh is no help.

Okay. I’m freaking out and don’t know if I should go to the hospital or not. 😩😩Help!!
What do y’all think? I’m in a lot of pain. My lower back hurts and feel like my back is burning. Also having some pressure down there.
some of the stuff I see on here, like rooms, beds, houses, etc is disgusting! you claim you're a sahm and your husband works hard, then help him out and let him come home to a clean house, bed, sheets, etc🤷🏻♀️
ladies help I finally got a due date for baby January 7th 2016 but I'm trying to figure out my conception date ! some say March others April I'm totally confused I know 5 days before & after u ovulate.
thank goodness that makes me feel alot better thank you @amarsig23
