I think the whole time I was at the hospital was the most calm I'd felt about giving birth. I felt ready and determined and felt like I could push forever without tiring. I had my daughter out in under 30 mins of pushing. Forgot all about the pain right after they laid her on my chest :) really not as bad as people made it out to be to me! I'll be doing it again in December and I can't wait! Good luck!
Honestly its not as frightening as it seems, I had a very fast delivery and it was the best experience ever. Just stay positive, being honest it doesn't hurt as much as you think.
Labor a delivery was the only part of my pregnancy I liked. Lol. If do it again in a heartbeat! It's not even close to as bad as everyone makes it!!
It's really not as bad as u think and really it only last a day of true pain and that's at the most onces it's done u don't really remember how pad it is I am on 3 and I can't wait to go in to labor and my frist one at the time felt like it took for ever ..and my 2 was so fast I did not ever have time to worry
