Labor and delivery is so empowering. It's the only thing I've been looking forward to this whole pregnancy. Besides a baby of course. Call me weird if you must

2tm.. I'm so excited and ready! I made it to 10cm last time before getting the epi (I was scared of pushing). This time I'm more confident and will try all natural but will just go with the flow :)

I'm excited too just because I'll have my own labor story to tell! Everyone's is so different and I'm aiming for a med free birth as well! It's definitely mind over matter! We can do this ?

I'm trying for natural too! I've been trying to mentally prepare myself for months so I hope that helps!! Good luck to all the mamas that are going to try too! I want to feel it all and the rush when she's born.

I'm freaking out about it ? I'm a FTM so I have no idea what's going to happen, all I hope is the 6 kidney stones I've passed have conditioned me in some way hahah

Aiming for med free as well! Done some reading on hypnobirths and I have a lot of support from my midwives so I'm feeling confident for the challenge ! I know it's going to be painful but to me that is less scary than epidural and it has nothing to do with the needle part, just how unpredictable they are you really don't know the affect it will have on your body until after you get it !

I wish you all FTMs the best of luck! It is pain like no other, I love my epidurals! lol

I'm ready too!! Going for a natural birth. Mind over matter. We got this!!! ??

Yes I feel the same way. Ftm so I realize I have no idea what I'm in for ?? but I'm ready to get this show on the road and my hubby is an amazing support system and we are going to rock this labour together!

Good luck ladies!! I just had my second natural birth without interventions. Both weren't easy, but I loved being able to experience the strength of my body. I hope you all have great birth experiences.

Stacey, I'm 37 and 1 and I think I've experienced a total of 5 contractions since being pregnant, thankfully! I'm praying it comes at once & baby girl comes at the same time ??

I hope your pain subsides soon & you have a quick & easy delivery! ❤

I'm so ready ? but I'm still opting for an epidural...labor pain is like no other pain I've felt before! I'm a punk!

This is on another level tho lol I get that feeling but this is like a constant low level pain, I'd rather it all freaking come at once! Not days and days of uncomfortable torture hahaha

Haha Stacey not yet! I'm not going to lie, I'm kind of a pain junky when it comes to working out, pushing myself to my limits, etc. I don't purposely go searching for pain, but if I'm exercising or something I don't feel like I'm doing enough unless I feel like I'm about to die ?

lol you guys must not be having the crazy freaking contractions I've been having for DAYS on and off. I'm ready to rip this baby out with my own hands lol

Feeling the exact same way!! Plan to go with no medication, but I really think I'm in for a surprise because no one mother describes labor the same way, so I really have no idea what to expect! Best of luck to you ladies!

Same as both of you! ⬆️ bring it on and I don't want pain meds or epidural if I don't need it! We got this!

I'm excited, but I feel like I shouldn't be bc I'm a ftm and have no idea what kind of pain I'm in for!?
