Is it normal to feel queasy at the thought of pregnancy?

Question

Is it normal for women to feel a little nauseous at the thought of becoming pregnant? Just thinking about all the blood during labor, increased blood pressure during pregnancy, doctors probing inside me, etc freaks me out and makes me hesitant to get pregnant. Has anyone else felt this way?

Answer

Thank you for your responses! I feel a lite better now :)

Answer

It is perfectly normal to feel that way. Don't listen to all those horror stories. You are just going to scare yourself more. Every pregnancy is beautiful and unique to each person. And so is labor! I am 32 ttc #3 for me but #1 for my fiance. My two prior pregnancies were completely different from each other and so were the deliveries. Good luck!

Answer

Yes it's completely normal.... It will change your life! But don't be afraid! How should have the human race survived if it would be so tremendous! 10.000 of years woman give birth - and the human race is still alive! Search for a midwife and talk to her - she will answer you all your questions and help you get assurence to your body. I've 2 children and I'm TTC for baby 3 and maybe 4.... It's worth all effort!!! Good luck.

Answer

Me. The thought of labor frightens me so much. And all the things that can go wrong. I am terrified of labor though. You hear all the horror stories and it makes me cringe. I think it's a big reason why it took me a long time to want to start trying to conceive. And even now I try not to think about it.
