So lady’s was going through labor and delivery painful and hard because i have 8weeks left and…

It hurts like hell. But sooo worth it!! Keep your mind occupied like movies or music.

The experience varies.. the contractions were a bit annoying and overwhelming I wanted an epidural but couldn’t stay still for them to give me one so I had to do without.. the pushing part was a breeze it just felt natural like u have to do a #2..

I had a natural birth and, yes it hurts, and I didn't really believe it at first but it really does feel like it goes by fast(I was in labor for 19 hours) you just focus on breathing through the contractions, having your SO to help you with that is invaluable. You can do it! Even if you passed out your body knows what to do! So relax as much as you can. ❤

I was the same way, I focused and was so nervous abt it.. but don’t even waste time worrying abt the pain. it’s amazing thing happening and once u get to hold ur LO it becomes such a unbelievably beautiful and amazing moment. It concours all 😊

I was induced so my contractions came extremely fast and hard. My epidural didnt work. The contractions made me want to die. I was literally begging them just to cut her out. I laid on my side, screaming for literally hours. My body started to push before I was dilated enough the doctor said. It was a natural feeling I couldn’t stop. It felt like a wave of relief with each push. You would think the pushing, ripping and tearing down there would hurt but it didn’t. It literally was like I said a relief. I did have to get cut from vagina to butt with no numbing because I got her head out and gave out I couldn’t push anymore. I just remember hearing her yell at me you have to push, her head is out you have to push ! Like I said my body gave out though, I heard her say I have to cut you and I panicked and as I was screaming no at her she did. She stuck her arms in me and got her out. Called some type of code because she had been so long just her head out without breathing. A bunch of nurses came in and worked on her and she was finally able to breath and I heard that sweet little cry.

It was so terrible but I would relive those hours over and over for her.

My friend on the other hand went naturally. She was 40 weeks and 3 days and they stripped her membranes. 24 hours later she said she felt barely there cramping (not painful at all she said she literally only felt them because she was laid down to go to bed) she timed them and they were coming at even intervals for a set amount each time. She said since they were barely there she was just gonna go ahead to bed anyways but she went to pee and there was a lot of bright red blood.

She went to the hospital, as soon as she got back there they said she could go ahead and get the epidural cause she was already dilated enough. She said she never felt a painful contraction. They gave her the epidural, she went to sleep, they woke her up and said you’re ready. She pushed 3 times, no tearing, no cutting she said she felt nothing.

So as you can see it’s diff with every one lol

All three of mine were vaginal births and my last one was with no medication and it honestly wasn’t that bad at all. I love it lol. I’m not gonna lie to you and tell you it’s not painful but it’s such an adrenaline rush and so exciting to feel it all and be so in tune with your own body. No matter how hard it ends up being, it ends with your baby in your arms and it will make you forget all that you went thru when they hand you your brand new baby💕
