| childbirth is defiantely painful but i only had pain meds with my first the went on to have 3 more without any. in my situation my labor was only unbearable in about the last half hour and by then its way too late for any pain med. but make sure you decidee early enough too if you want the meds because it may be too late ↑ |

| Hi sam.. I cant begin to explain the pain of childbirth... I dont say it to scare you hun but I dont want to lie and have you thinking its a walk in the park. But every woman is different you might have an easier labor than others. I am lucky in the fact that my labors have been very bearable and up until that last half hour.. like i said before, i actually enjoy the experience of labor.. i know weird huh? If it was really that bad do you think woman like myself would be on her fifth child lol.. heck no I would have been streilized after my first. The best way I can describe the pain of labor is like the stongest period cramps imaginable. Unless you have back labor which in itself is entirely different. Theres really not much that helps with that in the way of pain releive.. That usually happes when the baby comes out face up instead of face down. thats what happened with my first and my fourth.. but you manage. you'll get the strength you need through good support and love from family or friends who will be there with you.. good luck and keep in touch ↑ |

With my first child, he was born in the UK. There was a women in the room next to me and she was screaming bloody murder!!! Which scared the life out of me. So I decided to have the epidural... after that I couldn't really feel the contractions just preasure (like I had to go to the toilet). When I had the epidural I was in soooo much pain from the contractions (10cm) that the needle was like heaven when it went into my back. and trust me I hate needles and the thought of that needle going in my back made me wanna cry thinking about it. So all was well and I was about to give birth, no pain just preasure. There started to be a problem though, my son had is arm around his head so he wasn't coming out, I had forceps and a suction cup on his head and still didn't feel that. at the end though I was feeling more but I wouldn't say it was pain, I all of a sudden had this urge to scream, I mean SCREAM from the top of my lungs.
I later realized that I didn't scream because the pain was bad or anything like that I was screaming because I was pushing so hard and it was so fustrating, it made it easier for me to push if I could let some of the mental preasure out too. So when you hear women scream I don't think they are doing it out of pain (at least I wasn't) there doing it because it helps get more force, pushing power.
I had my 2cd child nearly a year ago and that was like a 5 star hotel. the nurse asked between 1-10 what was my pain like, at about level 4 when it was hurting but i could bare it, they gave me the epidual, with a little button that would top me up if I felt anything. from that point on the whole experience of giving birth to my baby girl was AWESOME!!! I didn't scream with her, i was so relaxed and so excited to see her (after the 3 miscarriages this baby was long waited for). Her birth was perfect, i couldn't of asked for it better.
It does hurt of course but the more tense you get the worse you make it, you will be fine and when it is all over you won't even remember what that pain felt like!!! I would suggest the epidural though to anyone that is that scared, it only takes a few seconds for them to do it, just relax think of something that makes you happy and it will be over and your labor will be much more easier.
Good luck Ladies!!! ↑ |

| It does hurt to have your baby, but it's so worth it. I went through a 2 day induction (I was a week overdue). By day two, the nurse gave me Stadol to help me rest, which I didn't like much because it makes you feel almost drunk and dizzy. When the pains got intense (back labor), I took the epidural and made it comfortably through the last 9 hours. I was lucky because we had no idea my baby would be over 10 lbs. After my delivery, I felt great and had time to bond with my baby instead of being completely exhausted from the pain or IV drugs. I think you just need to let your Dr. know how you feel about pain from the start, I did and she took great care of me and never judged me for my choices. You just need to do what you can to get through it and have a healthy baby and safe delivery, with or without the pain meds. ↑ |

does having a baby hurt
can you loose alot of blood when you are pregnant?
can you get ur period when ur pregnant? ↑ |
| Name: to rebecca | Date: Nov 24th, 2005 10:50 AM |
| yes, yes and no you shouldn't. you can lose alot of blood but if you dont have a blood disorder or anything I dont think it will happen. Doctors today have a pretty good idea how to keep us save during childbirth. Besides you are 4 times more likely to die (bleed to death) if you have an abortion. you shouldnt lose any blood while you are pregnant though. There really sjouldnt be any bleeding at all.. except a little at implantation. ↑ |

| Yes! I't hurts like hell! And I am not going to go through it because I don't wan't to and I don't have to damitt! I feel very angry at people in my family and other people too for trying to pressure me to have a baby because I don't wan't to. I don't wan't to be a mom. I just don't want such a big responsibility like that! And so I am never going to give in to the pressure to have one. ↑ |

That's a scary situation your in and I'm just thankful that I'm 22 and I'm not haveing any. I wish you a good life and you deserve someone nice and who respects you and I hope you find him. ↑ |

| I don't think you should decide on whether or not to have kids based on the pain of childbirth. It is painful, but there are so many options available that you really don't have to go through too much pain. Besides, once you have your baby, you realize it's all worth it. Look at how many people go through childbirth and then decide to have more kids. I do think that you should wait though until you are ready for kids, they take a lot of time, attention, and money, but again they are so worth it. If you're ready for them, it will make the process easier. ↑ |

| Name: interested | Date: Dec 1st, 2005 7:19 PM |
| Jasmine,,,,, If you don't mind me asking? Does your Dr think that there will be any problems with your twins, since they are from your brother? I was just wondering from a genetics point of view? Are you going to have them checked out for there genetics? ↑ |

| I'm not ever going to have a baby and i't really frustrates me when people say that 'll change my mind because no I wont!!!! There wrong if they think that I will and if I just never have sex then I'll never get pregnant and you can't argue with that cuz that's the truth and so I'll just not have a boyfriend and not have sex and but if I do I'll use lots of birth controll or I'll get my tubes tied. ↑ |
| Name: Chris | Date: Dec 3rd, 2005 5:55 AM |
| Betty Lou, you sound like you have made up your mind, and that's fine. Not everyone wants to have kids and that's their own choice, but why are you visiting a website if you feel so strongly about not getting pregnant or having kids ever? ↑ |
| Name: nicky | Date: Dec 4th, 2005 7:19 AM |
| I tolerate pain pretty well, I always have. I've had my share of bruises on top of bruise a broken leg and shots galore in the hospital-but all what I do know is that I have never had a baby before-but the epirdol is the way to go-I am not even gone try and feel that! That is way too much drama for me to handle-so epidoral yes indeed-yes indeed! ↑ |

| Name: elle | Date: Dec 19th, 2005 6:00 PM |
| Of course giving birth hurts. Just think, a baby with a head circumference of 15 cm is coming out of you, and you're definitely going to feel it. For my first child, the contractions weren't too bad, just felt like muscle spasms. You should take a Lamaze class...The breathing exercises teach you how to handle the pain especially during the contractions. When I was pushing, I was really too concentrated on getting the baby out of me to realize any pain. After he was out was the worst....If the nurses ask if you'd like tylenol with codeine, take it! ↑ |
