jane i think this is a great question to ask. im 5 months pregnant and im not enjoying my pregnancy because im just counting down the days because im so scared of the day of labor! but reading other girls comments make me feel a lot better. i don't know what to expect other than a lot of Pain! i pray and leave it in gods hands!
A c/s is far more dangerous and inhibits the bonding process. I have had a c/section and 5 vaginal births and I would take a vaginal birth with no drugs over a c-section any day.
Your welcome... sometimes talking helps a lot! Dont be scared.... I thought of it this way... Women have been doing it for AGES and naturally. If they could do it, then i can too! =)
Thank you soo much for answering this, it helped me alot to make up my mind... i want a normal delivery for my first baby.... :) Thank you guys
:) Let me put it this way its like having surgery anywhere else on your body being cut open, and then having to deal with a baby..... a newborn who wants to eat a few times inan hr and will wake you up about every two hrs.
Or it can feel like just having your period.... nurse gave me witch hazel topical to apply on your pad, it helped A lot!! I didnt feel pain at all after using that.....
It's completely normal to be scared of the idea of passing a watermelon size human out of your girly parts.
But like everyone has said... normal vaginal birth is preferred over surgery.
