Currently in L&D .. 5 cm dialated. The lady in the room next to me was screaming while pushing and now I'm completely freaked out.
@mamatobe203, No not at all. There was just a ton of pressure with the contractions.
lol some women scream but that doesn't mean your labor will be like theirs
Is totally normal to be scared! Same thing happened to me and I was terrified. However, the pain and pressure get much more intense towards the end and you get to a point where you can't wait to push and get your baby out!!!! It's not a walk in the park... Labor sucks!!! But just keep your eye on the prize. You'll soon be holding your baby. You're almost there. Best of luck to you mama!!
I yelled once not because I was in pain but because all the other girls around me were screaming so much I figured it would get the doctor in faster. Didn't work the doctor literally showed up for 5 minutes enough to pretty much say "ok reach down and grab your baby and pull it out. " I did it with no pain meds too.
I was like that with my middle son I had to do it naturally and I was screaming so loud my dr told me stop screaming your gonna caw everyone else lol. I told her I can't help it, when he was born she said you did great and I think I can hear now LOL
Good luck! Lol girl some people are just more vocal during labor and pushing. My last night in the hospital there was a gal screaming next door. Later I heard the nurses yell, "Nine pounds...eleven ounces!" and thought, yeah, I would've been screaming too! 😂 You're gonna do great!
Pushing really sucks, but if you focus on pushing the right way it should go quick. I had a mirror so when I saw his head coming out I just kept pushing like hell and he came right out.
@mamatobe203, good luck mama!
