Hontesly I was scared for labor as well. When I was in labor I actually delt wing the contractions pretty well once I got in bed and got on a yoga ball and walked around my room. I wanted to go all natural cause the epidural scared me and the nurse asked me if I wanted to get it and I told her I'm scared and of the side affects and she explained to me so i @savannahdrlng was like I can't take it anymore I'm getting it and it didn't even hurt!!!! I didn't feel a thing! And I hate needles. But I did feel my daughter coming out and that hurt. You will be fine. Once your in labor at the hospital you will know how to deal with it. Just have supportive people in your delivery room cause that also works. :) good luck girl in

Everyone's experience is different, but for me the 18 hours of labor and puking was a breeze compared to being pregnant 😂

hahaha really @kingme07 that's funny so it's not that horrible?

Honestly I'd rather go through labor a dozen more times then have to be pregnant for 9 months again

@mamaash aw okay thankyou that made me feel better

@jennatess @babyboy528 really?? it didn't hurt that bad? that's such a relief to hear

I've had five kids hun and there isn't anything to be afraid of at all!!! epidural was awesome , didn't hurt!!! everything was great.

as for epidural when it goes in it doesn't hurt as for the actual delivery if you get the epi and it all goes well your body takes it you don't feel anything but a tiny and I do mean tiny pressure. It was the easiest thing I've ever been thru honestly. I think a paper cut is worse 😂 that's how much it didn't hurt but that's me! everyone is completely different but the best thing to do is not to fret too much

The epidural was a life saver for me. And, honestly, it hurts exactly as bad as getting the IV in your arm. Which you HAVE to have. Seriously. No worse / No less. It was definitely worth it in my opinion.

I'm a first time mom too. and as the time came so much more closer for me to give birth I got more scared bc of other mamas trying to scare me pretty much. but you can never know your experience until you are actually there since you dont know what to expect. how strong is your pain threshold?

Don't worry about it until you're dealing with it, and even then- go with the flow.

There's so many things that can go wrong and it's totally out of your hands, epidural and contractions are also scary @mamaash it's my First baby I really don't know what to expect

why mama?
