Hey everyone. Just wanted to share something to see if anyone feels the same way
Im due on nov 22 and this is my first child. I have been to classes and heard stories about L&D but im getting so scared about what im about to go through.
Is anyone else due soon and are you scared too???

Read as many positive birth stories as you can! Everyone's birth is different, so don't get anxious over or even listen to other mama's traumatic birth stories. More often than not, birth is not scary. But it's the scary births that our culture loves to repeat. I read Ina May gaskin's birth stories but there are some all over.
Your body is MADE for giving birth; trust it and try to turn off your mind. Good luck!
Eta: spelling.
