Did you scream?

If you delivered vaginally did you scream at all during labor due to pain?

Re: Did you scream?
This was me too!!
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
I had such a strong epidural that I couldn't feel the lower part of my boobs. I was kinda pissed: I wanted to feel the contractions but not the back pain. So no, no screaming.
I wish I would have screamed though (before the epi) I might have lasted longer, but with a 3rd degree (superficial) tear I am glad I had it for the pushing part.
BUT- before I decided I wanted The epi- I had been in pitocin for a few hrs and when I hit 5 I couldn't take it anymore.. I actually started crying (tears down my face not sobbing) because the pain was unbearable. I think I labored without epi for 12 and 8 with.
I was in labor 15 hours on pit with DD before I got an epi (for the c-section)
I didn't scream. Actually the nurses put an internal monitor because they didn't believe my contractions were as strong as the external monitor was reading because I was so quiet and calm.
I'm very good with internal pain.
That being said I was one of the few people present for my friends labor and delivery. She screamed like the world was ending. In her defense she went from .5 cm to 10 in 30 minutes and they were telling her not to push because there wasn't a dr in the building. It was me, a nurse and her BF when the baby came flying out.
BFP #2 11/30/09 EDD 08/12/10- Sophia Grace born 8/1/10
BFP #3 11/16/10 EDD 08/04/11- Samuel Richard born 7/28/11
BFP #4 01/04/12 EDD 09/19/12- Simon Nathaniel born 9/6/12
BFP #5 03/27/13 EDD 11/25/13- Savannah Lee born 11/18/13
Nope.
The nurses didn't believe me when I told them it time to push. I had no epi, and they said I must be screaming if it were time. They checked me and said ok push! The bad thing was there was a lady in the next room who was pushing at the same time; and she screamed her head off. It really threw me off and I hated hearing it!
When I was induced with Timmy, there was another woman already in labor screaming like she was being murdered when I walked into my room. I was thinking OMG what am I in for.
That being said I had pitocin with Tim and epi free birth with him and med free birth with Nick a well but I didnt scream.
I didnt say anything with Tim with Nick I swore under my breath and said ow and on the way to the hospital I wanted to punch Mike because he wanted to stop and get ice cream. The nurses were amazed I walked up to L&D from the parking lot and was al;ready 8cm
Does at my DH in the car count because he refused to set up the GPS and got us lost in the few blocks around the hospital while I was in back labor? In defense of the GPS- we had moved here a month earlier and only been to the hospital twice- different routes each time.
Otherwise, no screaming. I cried a little when it turned into back labor.
this!
I *think* this was me too. I don't even remember if I screamed or not but I do remember bawling like a baby. My Mom was crying too and she never cries. I'll have to ask her if I screamed. I had a failed walking epi on pitocin and pushed for 3 hours so I would not be surprised if I had.
Not during labor. I was induced and got my epidural at 5cm, so I was OK.
When I was pushing him out, the last push, I let out a yelp, because it burned and I had to stop pushing for a second.
