can someone explain how their labor actually was? everyone that has talked to me started to scare me to me honest. about the epidural gone bad, ripping, pushing, is it really as bad as everyone says? I'm so excited to meet my son but still terrified.
As @beebaby said, every delivery is different for everyone. You could have an entirely different experience than that of one of us. With my first, my epidural didn't work. At all. It wasn't that it "went bad" but my daughter was descending into my sciatic nerve & essentially blocked my epidural. I also had an episiotomy to prevent tearing. My labor was 9+ hours & my contractions were 3-4 minutes apart from the moment my water broke. I was given pitocin to help aide in my labor because I was dehydrated & over my due date when I got to the hospital & my delivery was tough. I'm about to have my 2nd & I've opted to try having him without an epidural because of how I carry & also because of my previous experience (it's very uncommon that the epidural not work entirely but because of my previous labor, the likelihood of having the same thing happen to me is high.) But regardless of what happens in the delivery room, your body will know what you need & you'll get through it! No need to stress yourself out worrying about the "what if's" because when it comes down to it there isn't a whole lot you'll be able to do to stop the inevitable.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
contractions were awful. then I got the epidural when I was dilated to a 4 or 5. after that it was a breeze but I did have 2nd degree tearing & was in pain for about a month after I gave birth.
