confused about labor?
My hospital is a fair drive away. Im sooo scared i wont recognize labor until it is too late and end up having him in the car or bathroom. My doc told me what to look for, but being as inexperienced with this as i am im terrified that i will confuse it for something else.
Im not sure what im trying to ask here. I guess any mommas feel this "fear of the unknown" type of thing? If so, how are you managing and comforting it.
Thanks for any responses and advice. Its vefy much appreciated. Having a mini freak out about it now

Thanks so much, felt like i was crazy! Nice to know its normal too and im not just crazy haha!
I know the feeling. I've been constantly watching my bodies every feeling making sure that its not labor. Its normal. It helps me to feel alert and to be constantly watching how I feel or what I feel. That may just stress you out more lol but it eases my mind because my contractions that face been dilating me are hardly noticeable and my ob told be how that CAN happen so it makes me more nervous that I wont notice lol :) atleast I'm progressing though and not having pointless bh
I was so scared too. Of delivery being a new mom. Everything. It really all does come naturally.
I think im just terrified of everything now. Scared of labor, delivery, and then becoming someones mom... More scared ill do everything wrong.
Everyone asked if i was scared through pregnancy and i never was. Always was confident my body would know and everything would be okay. Not today! Lol!

Thanks, im just hitting the "wtf am I doing" freakout point. 12 days til due and so excited to meet him, scared of the process now that it's really looming.
Some mommas wont feel pain but their tummys get super hard, or some have back pain. But you will know
Oh when you start having regular contractions you'll know it. They hurt like hell and you'll probably be at the hospital way before baby is born
