HI everyone.

I am interested in hearing your thoughts on how you felt about actual labour the 2nd (3rd 4th and so on) time around.

I am pg with #2 and for some reason I am alot more anxious and nervous about the whole labour thing. I bounce between excitement and dread IYKWIM. Don't get me wrong...I am not talking about the actual baby (the baby is very much wanted) its the whole 'pushing out, contractions, pain' part that gets the heart-a-thumping

FWIW, My first labour was induced, 4 hours in total with no pain relief. There was no trauma, I didn't need stitches and things went well so I am at a loss to identify where this anxiety is coming from. I'm assuming it's normal to feel this way?
Interested in hearing your thoughts

TIA
