But when it was all over I forgot about how painful it was. I've heard that this is a trick of the brain so that you'll go back and have more. All to preserve the human species.
Um, yeah, pneumonia! I've had it twice, and it is heaps worse than childbirth. Yes, childbirth is painful, but managing it the right way, and going into it with a positive frame of mind, makes it a lovely experience I totally enjoyed it, and can't wait to go back again! And no, mine was not an easy, uncomplicated birth. But I still loved it!
Something to remember with birth is that for much of it the pain comes and goes. So you are not in constant pain for hours on end. Just thought I'd mention that, don't know if anyone else has!
