[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to provide another perspective, I loved being in labor. And breastfeeding was super easy for me. I was so worried about it because I felt like all I heard were horror stories.

My advice would be to get pelvic floor pt. It helped everything down there, including sex.[/quote]

Uh I have never heard of anyone who enjoyed being in labor? .... why? I mean, I can think of lots of things I would’ve preferred to be doing than being in labor...[/quote]

NP. I enjoyed the second birth. The contractions didn't feel good by any measure. But I loved much about birth that was intense in a good way: kissing DH during contractions like my life depended on it was passionate and fun. The chant I made up during the hardest part made the birth otherworldly. Making up a tune to deal with contractions helped me appreciate how pain inspires music. The birth ended on a low point when I lost so much blood that was still weak and lightheaded the next day. Even so, I'm looking forward to doing it again in a few years.[/quote]
