[quote=Anonymous]Both of my labors were challenging but manageable. The toughest part of the first labor was being made to get out of the tub (which had made labor pretty tolerable) for pushing -- I got really disoriented and overwhelmed for a while until I could find my rhythm again. There were definitely points in both labors where I felt overwhelmed, wanted to run away, didn't think I could keep going, etc. The key for me was having good support around me in the form of my husband, midwives, doula, friends...they all encouraged me, reassured me I was okay and could do this, etc. and that was invaluable. I have very positive memories of both of my babies' births. [/quote]
