getting nervous

[tasha_labruyere]

Hey guys. Im 17 and im a FTM. My fiancee and I have been together 2 and a half years. And now were pregnant. Im going on 18+2 and im all the sudden getting very nervous about laborn im tottally ready for a baby to be here and were both sooooo excited about him or her. But im now exstreamly nervous about labor. I know I still have a little over 20 weeks left but these 20 weeks have flown by. So I cant imagine the next 20 weeks. Any advice on how to ease my mind? Does labor hurt really really bad if u have an epidural?

I had my first when I was 17 and it was the easiest birth so far. It really is,nothing at all it is a wonderful experience I promise just enjoy it and dont be nervious. And when it comes to pushing dont take long breaks inbetween breaths take a deep breath and get right back in there it will make birth so fast good luck and really its not a big deal its wonderful

Thanks!! I was planning on getting the epidural. I was thinking about doing it naturally, i have a high.pain tolerance. But I really think that would be just to much pain. Lol. Im most likely gunna get the epidural. Im just really nervous. I know.it.will all be worth it tho

Def. Get an epic. You cant feel a thing and can sleep while waiting for u to dilate I have tried with all my kids to go natural but get to a five and cant take it. The pain will wear your body out if u dont have an epic. I couldnt believe how hard my body was working when I got the epic and I was so tired
