I watch to prepare myself mentally. I have low tolerance of pain so I opt for epidural for both labour. no pain at all. sometime silly silly go for labour also good. though I watch the videos but I have no idea what is contraction n how to count. so by the time I bleed n in labour ward, I'm almost ready to deliver within the next few hours.
don't go watch all these just let it be naturally now you should enjoy your pregnancy and not making yourself worried. before I'm like you my pain level tolerance level super low I just don't go think about it I experienced 3x contraction I still survived. it's the power of mother love at that moment that makes you strong
I personally think it's normal to feel that way. We will always say we're scared of birth & done with having babies but then got pregnant again. It's normal for women and our instinct. Your body will remember how it used to deal with the pain. But then again, don't watch the videos to scare yourself
every pregnancy I would watch again n again just to prepare myself mentally on how to handle the pain , contraction even tough this is my 7th pregnancy.
I feel you 😀 I stopped watching labor videos. I tell myself every pregnancy is different and hence may be I'll be having an easier one. 😄
First time mum here! Is it actually advisable to watch these videos to prepare for delivery? Is it better to watch closer to due date?
Don’t think abt it too much! Epidural helps alottttttt in relieving pain..stay positive ok
Epidural makes wonder. Don't sweat over it! Just go ahead with your birth plan!
That's weird. With epidural, you should feel numb waist down and will not feel anything. Did they test you? Like putting this thing (not sure what it is) which is ice cold on your thigh and see if you can feel anything? I only felt my 4th one came out when they lower the dosage at 8-9cm dilated. But no pain.
