I really don't think I'm going to be able to do this. Like pushing a baby out my hoohaa? I'm only 17 I'm so scared that I'm not going to be able to. I need some encouragement

I guess what I've been told, the worst part is... The labor and contractions. If you feel you can't do it... Get the epidural. I'm scared about pain too, but... I wanna do it too.

Hubby told me not to loll! But he's not the one pushing a tiny human out of his.... Nesssss.... Loll

For an epidural you feel normal besides the fact that the whole bottom half of your body goes numb. It doesn't make you feel drugged. :)

I want the meds but I don't like feeling like I'm on drugs. Does it feel like that or is the pain just gone and you feel normal

It all seems natural once you're there.  Plus if you are worried about pain don't feel bad getting an epideral

I'm with ya! I'm 17 too and don't think I can either. But we're designed to do so, so we can do it if we believe in ourselves!
