What are you most afraid of?

Question

During labor? I am already stressing about leaving my toddler. She is going to be so confused. I hope and pray I don't have to stay in the hospital for long. 😔

Answer

I'm afraid of something happening to my baby during the process, I'm also afraid I'll have to have another emergency c section.

Answer

Hemorrhaging. I have so many risk factors (5th child, older than methuselah, on anticoagulants for a blood clot, overdistended uterus due to polyhydramnios, etc...) Plus, my normal BP is 90/60. If I start bleeding too much, it won't take long to go into shock and die. Sigh...my doctor says I know too much and I'm freaking myself out but Im an L&D nurse. How do I turn that off!? (By the way she's not dismissing my concerns - she has them too and has already put countermeasures in place to accommodate for them. She just wants me to relax and let her worry about all that stuff. It's just hard to do that when you go into nurse mode and start trying to think about and plan for all of the complications that can occur!) I just want to have a normal delivery with normal blood loss and NOT die and stuff. Especially since my pregnancy has SUUUUUCKED. 😳

Answer

To be honest the thing I was most afraid of was pooping on the table, lol! I couldn't get it out of my head. I was afraid to push when the time came I was so stressed. 💩

Answer

I really don't want my baby to go to the NICU afterwards and I don't want to have to not be around my baby once he's born. Also, I hate that it's a waiting game. Idk if he will come before or after my due date.

Answer

I'm most afraid of the pain and not knowing what contractions are going to feel like because this is my first lol

Answer

Since I am having back to back pregnancies I'm a littler nervous about safety of me and my baby girl. My first delivery went great but I just have a little fear that everything won't go smoothly this time. My los will be 14 months apart

Answer

I'm stressing about leaving my toddler too. I don't want to be away from her for that long. :(

Answer

My 2nd labor was great but she was born stillborn but they where able to save her and on top of that I was bleeding heavily. I'm worried that I will have other complications that may not have such a happy ending this time. I just want me n baby to be fine and together!
