Labour anxiety

Hey mummies! Hope y’all are doing well. I’m due anytime soon and having labour anxiety. It’s my first child and I’m excited to meet her! But I am also feeling very scared. Any tips/advices? #advicepls #firsttimemom #firstbaby

Hi mummy, I just gave birth last Tues and it's also a girl and my first born! I was anxious just like you as well, but try not to read or listen too much to others as everyone's experience is diff. Support from your husband while waiting for labor is very important and if your pain tolerance is low, take the epidural or any form of pain relief that can help you. Rmb to breathe in and out for every waves of contractions and tell yourself you will be meeting your lil princess soon and everything will be worth it. Have a smooth delivery!

Don’t read don’t listen to any birth stories, go with the flow. If you’re afraid of the pain, go for the pain reliefs (laughing gas, epidural). 😊
