Ok so i'm pregnant with my first child..and I am 35 weeks pregnant.
My due date is March 12th..as the days get closer I get a little more panicked about the whole thing.
I want to do it the natural way..no epidural..but I'm starting to really freak out about the pain and the unexpected.
I guess what I'm looking for is not really an answer but more like comfort and support from people who have experienced this.
I'm also worried that I won't know when I'm going into labor..i kno everyone says I'll know.
I'm just panicking about everything...
I've had one child and am 5 weeks pregnant with my second, so i'll give you the best advice i can. I was induced, so im not sure if i could tell you about going into labour, because i gradually went into labour over a number of hours. The key is to relax about it. Labour and birthing hurts, there's no doubt about it... but you just need to remember that you're going to have a beautiful little baby at then end if it. Your own little miraculous creation. Us women were born to do this, pregnancy and birth. When my pain got intense i used the gas and it worked wonders for me and helped with breathing.
So keep focused on the goal... Your little baby... and you will have a reason to stay sane.
And the main thing now, is to relax for the last few weeks and just let it happen. If you're stressing then the baby could possibly come early or there could be complications.
Good luck!!
xoxo
