Im 18 and 32w4d pregnant with a beautiful princess  as for labour try not to think about it if you go in with a calm mind then it will be easier I personally at 18 preffer this forum as people tend to be more mature dont listen to people with a bad attitude as they will just fetch you down there are plenty of nice people who will answer yoyr questions and give you as much support as you need x

Julz25, dont worry about her. Shes drama.  Ive seen her name and negative comments in all the pregnancy forums.  Obviously has nothing better else to do than stay on here and create drama.....Sasa28

Sasa28 I didn't know disagreeing with you was attacking you. Last time I checked a disagreement was not that.

I was not saying she had to change groups, I just let her know the other group is about her age so she might relate with them. There have been other moms on the other group that then found out it not by gestationsl age but by moms age and have found that there is a big diffrence in relation.
Julz25 talking about drama, are planing on attacking me all day?

Yes lots of walking through out pregnancy helps big time!! Also hot showers or warm baths during labor helps for little while :) I was 17 with my first pregnancy also now I'm 33 and having my 6th baby ;) good luck sweetie hope it goes well for you!!!

Sasa28, based on her age, yes the other group may relate better but I find the posts are not as respectful and contain more drama. So I don't know why she should have to change groups if she likes it here.

Make sure you have a good, supportive partner with you. Research pain meds that are offered to you so you can have an idea if what you want. I would also take prenatal class if you can. I am taking one and its been really helpful in relaxing. I don't know how it would work in labor since I found out I have to have a c-section. But just look into your options.

Pregnancy comunity pregnancy 18-24 chat line may be able to relate better with you. Congrads! In regarda to your question labor is labor. It is painful.  The nice thing is you dont remember after. Hold on to that though and work on your labor plans.  I used fenamin shots with my first 2 its a great pain reliever and has very little effect on the baby. Good luck hun.
