Maybe ask your mom to come stay with you a couple weeks during your due date
Its scary I was scared with my first and I'm scared with my second one but soon as you hold your baby the pain and everything is gone like it never happen .don't stress yourself out you can do it ! :)
Thanks. I know I can't wait to hold my baby i know it'll be worth it in the end
It's scary but everyone is different so hard to tell you how much it'll hurt or how hard it'll be. some people labor for a couple hours and some people a couple days. Some people say it was a piece of cake and me personally had a really hard time. I'm pregnant with my second and I'm scared too. But I know when you hold your baby the excruciating pain disappears and it is absolutely 100% worth it, that helps me feel better.
I would suggest looking up positive birth stories and reading them to help prepare yourself a little bit more. The Birth Without Fear website is a really good resource for stories, as is the book "Spiritual Midwifery" by Ina Mae Gaskin. (Even if the book's a little outdated and super hippie.)
It helped me to remind myself that billions of women have given birth throught the history of the world, and at any given time hundreds of women are in labor. And most without modern conveniences of clean hospitals and pain medicine. If they can all do it, so can I, and so can you. :)
I'm gonna walk into the hospital screaming for an epidural when the time comes. Had it with my last and I loved it. There's always options for pain too, ask your Doctor.
This will be my 5th and I know the pain already and sorta what to expect and such and trust me I'm terrified too but all I can think of is its all worth it seeing my baby at the end. It hurts like hell but you'll get through it. Stop stressing yourself out. It will all be fine. Keep positive and relax. With one of my kids my pregnancy had a complication and they had to induce me and went into labor quick so I had no one there with me but it was fine. I was in great hands and at the moment you won't even be able to think anyways Lol. Good luck
I ment can I handle the delivery... I mean I know I have no choice is no going back now. I want my baby girl and I can't wait to being her into the world so I can hold her but I'm kinda scared..
