Im not going to lie. Labour is excruciating. But hay.. who cares. Its a pain u do forget and i just kept telling myself, it wont last forever. When it comes to labour.. expect the unexpected. U may want an epi but they might not do one if u are too close to bub being born. Personally i thought the epi hurt abit more than the labour!!!!

Mine ended in an emergency c/section. So i was unable to walk or move real weel for the first week but that didnt stop me focusing 100% on my baby. Its what i had to do, and i didnt even think about the pain really.

I dont think anyone is really ever "ready" for labour. Its like saying.. hay are u ready to come get your arm chopped off. But its just another thing us wonderful woman have to suck up and hope and pray that just someday our husbands get to experience some sort of the same pain. When DP gets sick now and is like... oh im so sore.. im sick yadda yadda yadda.. i just have a little chuckle in my head. He has no idea what pain is.

You have to remember, we are built for this. We are meant to go through labour and birth.

As much as it hurts... it is ab****ley awsome when they pass that baby to you that u grew inside u. Such a surreal feeling
