Ive had problems with not being able to stop bleeding after my babies are born so thays my worse fear. Ive almost had to habr a blood transfusion once. And another time they kept giving me shots to stop bleeding so thats my worst fear. The way im going to deal with it is to leave it in gods hands.

The epidural! I've already been through labor, I'm pregnant with my second, you don't feel the cutting or stitching up, and contractions well they suck, but the epidural was so painful to me, I'm so scared to get it again.

I tore (tmi) but I didn't feel it, I just felt the uncomfortable pressure from giving birth.

My first was 8½ pounds and I never got cut or tore, I spent my whole labor with a warm washcloth on my ladybits and my doctor massaged my perineum really well before I started pushing. I'm terrified of having an emergency csection :/ and of hubby passing out

I am scared of losing a lot of blood. I love my baby just don't wanna die after delivery. After the first post hemorrhage I never thought I wanted another baby. I just pray they're ready for me when I go into labor

My biggest fear is being cut down there. Yikes!! But I'm scared of the pain in general I hear so many stories about how its the worst pain a woman will ever experience and I don't have a high pain tolerance!:(

I am completely scared of my csection. My first was incredibly traumatizing i blacked put 4 time during surgery, my biggest fear is the spinal block. I blacked out from hyper ventilating with my first so i didnt feel a thing but this time its planned, gotta be at the hospital at 5:30am and csection is at 730 am :( im definitely scared to be sitting there that long getting myself all worked up!

My biggest fear is having to maybe get a c section. Not that I'm at risk for getting one or anything like that, I just am terrified of the thought. I would haaaaaaaaaate that.
My silly fear is pooping on the baby during labor lol. I know it doesn't really matter nd I won't even notice during the pushing, but its still like making me nervous thinking about it haha

I'm scheduled to have my second C-section in March. Durring my first c-section about half way through I was suddenly able to feel everything only I didn't feel it in my stomach I felt it in my chest. I had whats called transfered pain, It was the worst thing I've ever been through in my life. It felt like someone plunged and knife into my shest and drug it nipple to nipple over and over again until they were finally able to knock me out. My husband said he's never heard someone scream like that before, and he's been in Iraq twice and Afganistan once. He thought I was going to die... I'm so very afraid of someting like that happening again...

Ohh gosh, my list has a few! An episiotomy, having to have a c-section, baby not breathing, something happening to me during labor, having a bowel movement during pushing! (LOL)
But I leave it all in Gods hands! I know He will protect me and my son!!

It was horriable, my husband said the anesthesiologist put two syringes in IV the yelled at a nurse who ran out of the room and got two more for him to put in my IV and after that I was out cold for three hours. I was told that it happens to less than 3% of women so the chances of it happening again or to one of you are very low, but I'm still very scarred...
