well i can say that i had a pretty easy
labour especially for my first. i was
induced at 37 weeks because landon was
small and my placenta wasn't giving him
the proper nutrition he needed so they
decided that it was better to get him out
than to keep him in, so from the beginning
to the end of my labour it was 4 hrs, hehe
so i was lucky, and 4 pushes in 8 min and
he was out. i find that ya the
contractions hurt, and they will no matter
wat, think about wat ur body's doing lol
anyways, they are...managable tho, but
they get to a certain extent where u think
u just cant take it anymore, i never
really got to that tho, i had a shot of
morphine in my bum hehe to calm me down
because i couldn't control myself very
well when the contractions came, buit it
sure didnt stop the pain, but it was nice
cuz i was just really woozy and slept
inbetween contractions but my contractions
started at every 10 min. and really fastly
( dont know if thats a word )
Started like ever 2 min apart. but
anyways, id SO do it again, and i will in
a few years that is hehe..but every labour
is different and unique and wat ever
happens happens. the wisest piece of
advice i got from these ladies b4 my
labour was that labour is a natural
process, not surgery and somehow that
relaxed me a lot, but i dont know.anyways,
good luck hun!
