Im 13 weeks, and have always been classed as family and friends as a wimp when it comes to pain, this almost makes me want to deal with this more seeing as people dont have faith in me that I can do it.
Ive been looking at water births and natural birth videos for the past few weeks and want a natural as possible birth.
It WILL be in the hospital/birth centre attached to my local hospital, any tips for dealing with pain from other mums?
I love water, and an epidural is a BIG NO NO as the thought of that thing going in my back and being numb for hours is worse for me than the thought of labour, I would literally rather eat my own arm.
I have tried recently when stubbing toe or banging myself to breathe through it instead of wailing like a banshee or crying and its working, any 'proper' breathing techniques?
Thank you in advance xx
