i`m definately freaking out about the whole labour thing. With my first pregnancy i had twins but i also had a c-section so i never had to think about it really. With this baby i want to deliver naturally but i`m definately freaking myself out thinking about it so much. lol

With both my babies when i was at my due date i started freaking out, more so with my 2nd as with your first its the unknown. I get this funny feeling in my tummy even now with my 3rd(im 36 weeks) I know ive been thru it before(and did it natural) and i can do it again but your body goes thru this amazing transformation and at the end your like wow i did it... Goodluck you`ll be fine, millions of women go thru it everyday..

I didn`t think about it at all. And I had a wonderful pain free labor! I didn`t feel anything and I delivered a 9.7 lb baby in five minutes and no stiches. You can do it!!!

you`ll be fine,, you need to mentally prepare yourself, so you dont become exhausted

My theory is that you get to the point during your pregnancy that you are so uncomfortable that all you want to do is have that baby and you lose the fear. Let`s hope my theory is true.

It`s going to happen regardless of how you feel about it. For me, it wasn`t the contractions that hurt so bad it was not having any rest between. Like doing 50 sit ups isn`t bad if you have all day to do it but if you have to do them a few seconds after each other than it gets rather painful and annoying.

im actually excited alltogether i know it will be painful (im not getting the epidural) but from everyone who has told me about giving birth they tell me yes it hurts (like a b**ch) but that was the best part of being pregnant and they would do it over and over... im excited for the experiance :]

i was really scared the 1st time about going into labour but i found it really was not as bad as i thought it would be

it`s painful, yes, no real way around it. I even had an epidural & from previous comments everyone was telling me oh no with the epidural all u feel is pressure, YEAH, pressure right until i had to push. it was quite painful but well worth it. It all comes down to mind over matter. Yes you have to be physically prepared to withstand labor but you REALLY have to be prepared mentally so you can focus when its time to push & get baby out. and then, voila... you`re DONE!! =)
