[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It wasn't just the pain, but the pain combined with vomiting and shaking that put me over the edge.  Also, my contractions lasted 2.5 to 3.5 minutes, which was pretty exhausting.

During the pushing part, it felt like I was being ripped apart.  When the nurse said she could start to see DD's hair, I was like "ARE YOU KIDDING?" I thought her head was halfway out.  I had labial tearing, but none in the perineum, so not sure if my situation was different than most.

I had kidney stones and found the pain somewhat comparable in terms of discomfort, although DH said I handled childbirth much better.

First DC was a c-section. [b] I would take natural childbirth over c-section recovery any day. [/b] Very different types of pain, but at least childbirth only lasted 25 hours.

HA!  Two words for you: uterine. prolapse.  If I could do it all again, I would have taken a csection in heartbeat.

Everyone's experience is different.  OP, you are not going to be find answers here.  Just have faith in yourself and if the pain gets too intense, you will do what you want to do.  It's your birth.[/quote]
