3rd timers...

Are you as scared of labour as I am? With the first I was nervous. With the second I was calm, cool and totally confident. But then I had terrible back labour and he came shooting out on the second push and I was screaming like one of the victims in "Saw." I'm so tired. I feel like my body has crapped out on me and I still have a few weeks to go. I am in bad shape (everything seems to be broken) no sleep, chasing two kids every day. I just plain ?run down." I know what "bad labour" can feel like when I was in good shape, I can barely get up the stairs my SPD is so bad. I'll say, I'm totally freaking out.

    I'm having total anxiety about my spinal and the pain from having my tubes tied along w/ the c-section recovery.  Ugh I think it's knowing how hard it is to recover with two wild ones at home already

    I feel ya. I was nervous with my DS because I didn't know what to expect and it was a long unmedicated birth in the hospital. With DD I was excited because I was delivering at a birthing center and had all these grand ideas of what it was going to be like sitting in the tub by candle light listening to my playlist-well that is NOT how it turned out at all. Easy labor until BAM I hit transition at home and started pushing in the car which is the most awful place on earth to be. This time I have no fantasy to get me excited, but I am over it and just want to get the baby here. A small part of me just wants to go to the hospital get an epi and sleep for days, but the mama side of me wants to do the natural birth at the center again. 3rd time is hard!

    Girl, that is why they invented epidurals.

    I want a med free birth, but I had no idea I was going to be so physically and mentally drained by this point. I haven't even had my baby yet and I'm glued to the couch because my back/hips hurt constantly, and soon it'll be because I'm not getting much sleep. I'm not scared of labor because I know my body was made for it, I'm more afraid of the after! The unknown, the sleepless nights ahead... that scares me most. I am not a nice person on little sleep, and I fear for the kind of mother I'm about to become!
