every birth is different ............

this is number 4 and NONE of mine have been the same ??

it'll all be fine.... try to relax and just go with it.

my first was horrible. turning during birth...... thanks DS 1

the 2nd was a breeze and 3rd a little harder

i hate needles but never had to have any during it and once you go into labour all else goes out the door anyways.

best of luck to you.
