anyone else nervous?

Question

I'm not scared of giving birth at all because it's natural and women are made for it.  But I'm a bit nervous. I'm nervous about the pain before and after. I keep hearing stories about having a second or third degree tear.. I even had a friend who gave birth and she said she had a tear from one hole to the other.. I'm soooo nervous about that and the pain of peeing and pooping afterwards. I know it sounds like I'm scared but I'm not. I can NOT wait till he's here. And I can't wait to give birth. I can't wait to experience bringing life into this world. But I am nervous. Anyone else?

Answer

I was the same way with my first! I wound up having to be induced and I couldn't handle the back labor. So I wound up getting the epidural. I don't even remember them sticking me with the needle to be honest. Lol So, I am totally down for getting that again if I need to. I did have a minor tear which needed one or two stitches. The worst part for me about that was the random shooting pains that were still happening weeks after birth. Just my body still trying to close itself back up. Not fun. Oh, and I had no pain peeing or pooping after delivery. I wasn't given anything to soften my poop either. Some women do have problems though so just be ready!

Answer

Best advise i can give os let the baby completely drop before u push. Make sure you are fully effaced and dialated then start pushing. I was told this with my first and have done it with my other 2 and plan to do it with this one. Absolutely no tearing and babies were out within a few contractions

Answer
