[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had the exact same labor (number of hours of labor and pushing) as my mom right down to the mal positioning of the baby. I think on some level my mom was happy that I knew what she went through for me. I'd heard about the horrible labor my whole life, and was petrified of giving birth because of it. [/quote] So was it horrible, or was your mom just being dramatic :)[/quote] The actual labor wasn't that horrible, but the 4 hours of pushing, multiple vacuum attempts, forceps and resulting injuries were. I lived, and I had a healthy baby, everything else (mostly) healed, and I'd do it again. Thank goodness for the epidural though. [/quote] Stories like yours are why I'm so nervous going into this, and why I'm grasping at the hope that my labor is likely to be quick and uneventful, like my mom's![/quote]
