Scared of labor/birth?

Question

Am I the only one NOT terrified of being in labor and giving birth?
I mean, naturally I'm afraid of something going wrong, but as for the pain and stuff, I'm not even a little nervous about it.
37 weeks, FTM. Less nervous the closer it gets.

Answer

I'm not scared for labor/delivery, but I am scared of stitches. So weird.

Answer

As strange as it sounds, I'm looking forward to seeing how much pain I'm going to be going through and how I'm able to deal with it because as of right now, my plans are to go as naturally as possible, no epidural or pain medication. :)

Answer

I'm actually excited to experience childbirth. I've always been fascinated by it and have wanted to be a mom since I was little. Naturally, I worry about something going wrong but I know that my body was made for this and that the likelihood of something terrible happening is very low. I'm glad I'm not the only one. ✌🏼️

Answer

I wasn't nervous at all and I had an awesome labor and delivery

Answer

I wasn't scared either honestly. I was more scared of my birth not being natural like I wanted it to. The pain and the birth wasn't scary for me. Just painful lol but our bodies are made for it. My MIL did it 5 times in Mexico in her house, and then 5 more times in America. so I figured I could handle one little baby naturally in a hospital. And I did lol. Just keep your head on straight :)

Answer

I was scared the first time for sure. Now it's been 4 years since my daughter was born, and it's hard for me to even remember a lot of my labor with her. I only remember holding her after she came out, I don't remember any pain. So I remember the important parts lol. 
I know you're still gonna be nervous but just know it's all worth it, and it's not as bad as you think it will be! Good luck and good vibes momma!

Answer

My son came at exactly 40 weeks. I was in labor for 36 hrs, pushed for 2 1/2, he got stuck, i had to be cut from my V-A and i did it all without meds or an epi! 
Im 37.3 weeks with my daughter and lets just say im terrified of it going the same again! 
My doctor told me if i wanted the epi i could have it, then at my last appointment told me it would be shut off hrs before i had to push! So it loks like im going no epi again!!

Answer

I'm not scared or nervous at all. Oddly I am scared of after birth, the healing process. Lol I've heard it's horrible.

Answer

Im also a ftm
I have always had a tiny build and the only thing big on me now is my belly 😂 despite everyone telling me i will "have to have a c section" because of my size i dont believe it.
I am more excited and ready than i am nervous and scared!
I know women go through birth everyday, babies are born all the time and that my body was made to deleiver my little girl, so i would say i am more ready than anything!
Bring on the labor, i got this!💪

Answer

This is my 4th and i was scared each time! Labor is quicker but the pain is the same :(
