So here I am watching birthing videos and suddenly I get scared shitless about doing this... Pushing a baby out just…

no, pushing wasn't that bad. it actually gives you a little bit of relief from the contractions while you're pushing (not clue why)...

@kala_elise, yes I'm definitely not interested in an epidural. I know it'll hurt but it's good to know that pushing doesn't hurt as badly as contractions for most women. That's what scares me lol! No epi for me. I want it as natural as possible.

if you can do it without an epidural, then don't get one coz it only prolongs the process! my first labor was wayyyyyyy longer than my second and third coz I got an epidural the first time and you can't feel yourself pushing.

to me pushing the baby is the easiest part. the contractions are the worst but epidural will be your best friend

@jesjeslovesyou, This is my 3rd time giving birth in dec..its been 13yrs since the last time i gave birth and my other son is 20.had him natural..I recently saw videos on youtube a few days ago..i m surprised how close up they are video typing the live birth..kinda. freaked me out..because...we only feel it we don't see it like our spouse or people in room. it was defiantly breathtaking...to watch and yes. most women in those videos are in pain..but.it really is so dif to exp it yourself..this is why women give birth..we make a placenta..grow a human..make blood(our periods)and make milk too..men would die from period cramps alone hahah

Thank you sooo much better. You all have definitely helped ease my worries😅😅. He'll be here any day now.

I just had a baby 8 days ago it's not terrible the contractions hurt but pushing isn't to terrible and you pretty much forget it all after you get that amazing little baby put on your chest !

Pushing the baby out is the easy part it's the contractions that's not a joke 😩😩 epidural saved my life lol

I agree with @sherrynygirl. This is my 3rd pregnancy. The contractions are the worst and pushing is not as bad. Because of the friction and your baby's hair, it will probably sting when you're pushing. The end result is so worth it, though. 😊

i have given birth 2x...the contractions to me was painful..the baby coming out of the vagina doesn't hurt kinda felt like a pinch in your inner thigh s as long as you dialte the full #10 you will be okay

Stop watching them! Lol it's really not the bad you have think about the end result not the process lol

Epidural

yes it hurts but once its done you will forget all about the pain once you see that baby of yours 😄
