I couldn't fall asleep b/c I was worrying about the birth.

I had a good birthing experience with Gabby & I wondered if I could get so lucky as to have another one

I did have pain, but that's a given w/ birth

But I didn't tear and the epi didn't hurt going in (even though that thing didn't work

).

I'm scared I'm going to tear bad & that the needle will hurt

It's the whole "not knowing whats going to happen" that terrifies me...Hell, I could end up in a C-section

I'm a wuss!

So if you've had more than 1 kid and it was a bad experience with one of them, PLEASE do not share

You know, it's that whole mentality where if you know a lot of people have good experiences you think you will

All 3 of my births went relatively well

I feel the same way with this baby, Im scared out of my mind.

I wasn't so worried in the beginning because it was so far off but now I'm getting terrified of giving birth

But I'm sure you'll have a nice easy birth with this one just like gabby

I'm sure you will do fine. I was the opposite, I had a horrible experience with Tristan and I'm having to have a csection this time so i'm terrified of it.
