Giving birth

Luhweez · Sep 3rd, 2008, 16:21 PM

It might be a stupid question but is it the kinda pain where you actually cry? or the kinda pain that even though its really bad you just bite down and get on with it and no tears?

i found it not really pain, more discomfort. gas and air was amazing, just felt like a pushing sensation down there

i found the stitches after worse than actually having her lol xx

This is actually a good question. I don't know coz i've never experienced it but i'm gonna guess one that you bite down and deal with it.

that is a weird question n seen as this is my first i have no idea but u will be pushing a baby out of u so its not going to be pretty!

and seen as every labour is different i dont think people will be able to tell u that as u might find it more or less painful then others!

but try not to think about it

Yikes.....do I really want to know the answer to this question?

It is just more uncomfortable pain, I didn't have any "scream out loud" contractions but some people do, so i think it might be different for everyone.
Afterwards is so much more painful! You probably didn't want to know that, but I was just looking at the postnatal section, remembering!!!

The pain I experienced caused me to lose control of my emotions. I also remember being in so much pain that I could not speak. That's just me and my personal experience. For others it may be different. I was fully dilated before I could blink an eye so maybe the fact that my labor was so quick made it so tough.
I found the rectal pressure and cramps from the contractions to be the most difficult part. I have a huge threshold for pain- am heavily tattooed. Nothing can compare to birthing a child. You will all do wonderful!
