2 weeks today anxiety taking over 😅😅 not prepared for the pain and it's all i can think of

@babynumber03 thanks I'll have a look I have noticed when I'm more stressed about it I get more braxton hicks xx

I've started hypnobirthing classes. you can find videos on YouTube to help relax you, teach you breathing techniques and explain how stress can tighten muscles and slow labour down. It might help you, good luck x

I'm just going in expecting the worst can only be better with a nice reward at the end xx

I'm so glad some one warned me of the pain that comes after ... the first wee... it's worse than childbirth take yourself a sqweeezy water bottle and when u go spray yourself or try go in shower... that water bottle will become your best friend the first few days and ease the pain. yes childbirth is bad but you soon forget and the second that baby is held in your arms you'll want to do it all again xxx

the contractions are definitely worse than the pushing.. I did it too on just gas and air.. you just focus so much on listening to your body you want them out and you forget about it immediately once they are on your tummy xx

tbh hun id say the worst pain for me was the contractions and i done the pushing and delivering without pain releif , i had a bit of gas and air for contractions xx
