Screaming?

[LooLooBug]

Okay so this is probably really dumb, but if you scream or cry or whatever during labor will the nurses doctor get mad or what? LOL I'm a wuss for pain and can only imagine me like screaming my head off.

Me too! Im not super woman, not trying to be. =D

[LooLooBug]

I want lots of pain meds LOL

I agree. I could care less if im bothering anyone else. Everyone has different pain tolerance levels, not to mention different birthing circumstances, so to say man up is, im sorry, just dumb. I know im gonna do whatever I need to to get through it. You do whatever you need to do you're the one giving birth.

I had my first at a military hospital, I screamed my a$$ off! Productive or not you can't control it it's painful! Child birth is painful and there's no oh your being a baby. I'm pushing a watermelon through a key hole damn it ! The nurse tried to tell me something about scaring the other women went off on her! Cursing and all! Idc it was a military hospital I'm having my va jay jay ripped
open by a big headed child n she is a person like n e one else there for she can go to hell like everyone else! My second daughter I didn't have at a military hospital and I had whatever drugs they could give me including an epidural and I didn't yell, curse or anything the experience was a lot more pleasant and I'm going to have my third child there and I am so hopeful for the same experience! I'd hope the nurses don't talk trash but Idc if they do as long as I don't hear about it!

Im sure they half expect it from everyone but myy sister started screaming and her dr said that it was just extra energy she was putting out and that she should put that energy into pushing. But Im sure they wont get mad.

Yes, some women are able to remain calm and focused - that's great.  Others actually find being vocal to be more relieving for them.  Some nurses may run their mouths, but if they are any kind of a decent nurse they will only talk amongst themselve and NOT to other patients about you.  It's unethical and unprofessional for hospital staff to run their mouths about a patient with another patient or anyone else who doesn't have access to the persons medical information.
