Lookalike (1031.9 days ago) I`m pretty scared too. I don`t quite know how I will deal with it either. I`m hoping hypnobirthing actually works!
avaann (1032.1 days ago) i was in the same boat. soooo terrified. now i`m 38 weeks and, believe me, after the WHOLE pregnancy i am SO ready to go through labor! LOL i think it`s supposed to work like this! you`re scared at first but then when you finally get to the end you are ready to do just about anything, including labor by any means, to get the baby out! don`t get me wrong, i`m still very nervous but NOTHING like i was say....12 weeks ago. I am SOOO ready to be done!!
Amanda-is-Rebekahs-Mommy (1032.1 days ago) I LOVED my epidural! Epidurals are great things! I was able to rest and enjoy my labor after mine. I didn`t throw up either, I`ve heard it`s really common, but no one I know has thrown up during birth if that gives you any comfort.
snlt4hm (1032.1 days ago) I`m not as concerned about the cramping as I am nausea. I have a very high tolerance for pain as long as i know WHY i`m hurting but if I get nauseated I just think I`m going to die! Did a lot of people get nauseated? I was fine about labor till I read that most women throw up. That is mostly what I`m freaking about. (CRAZY RIGHT?)

alex76 (1032.1 days ago) Don`t plan too much as it upsets you when things don`t go the way you hoped. Just go with the flow as much as you can and don`t be frightened to take drugs or an epidural if you need it.
Bek 30 (1032.5 days ago) The best piece of advice I have for when labour begins: Keep moving. With my first, I refused to move and I had a real bad labour. With my second, I kept myself busy when I went into labour. I finished cleaning the house, did the washing, cleaned my sons room, cooked dinner... I just kept moving, and seriously it went quicker and smoother then my first baby. I`m also with the other mum`s, don`t stress, that babies comin one way or another...lol.
hiddenkitten (1032.5 days ago) lol... not to mention, it`s not like you have a choice! that baby`s coming whether you`re ready or not!! haha <333
happyforest (1032.5 days ago) if you are really nervous just remember you can get an epidural and not feel a thing!! i didnt even know my baby was coming out until they let me reach down and feel his head. and he was 9 lb 5 oz!!
T3POandR2D2 (1032.6 days ago) I agree with Ermsmom. The best advice anyone can give is to not stress about it. No matter what you go through it really is worth it.
ermsmom (1032.6 days ago) I know this won`t help too much but the biggest advice I can give is don`t stress about it. Some people have it easy, others more difficult. You`ve never been through it before so you just don`t know. Try not to get yourself worked up over something that you can`t control and have never experienced. What you get in the end is worth it.
