When I was in labor with DS I refused to push hard because I was afraid of crapping. Finally the nurse said, look you are not going to sh!t so push!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I am still afraid of doing that.

Also I had really bad back labor with DS which effected my pushing so I am worried that it will happen again.

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

i have two... one is tossing my cookies for 20 hours again... which ds is was so bad that dh couldnt even get a basin to me fast enough a couple of times and i ended up needing to change my gown several times
the second is retearing... though this ob is in shock that my first ob let me tear as badly as i did and he reassures me that he will lube me up as much as possible to avoid it (which my first ob didnt do anything of the sort)


as for pooping on the table... i was afraid of that with ds and tried not to push that hard until my ob reminded me that my epidural had been turned off and that it would be wearing out very shortly.. if you ask dh he swears that three seconds later ds was born

I am definitely scared of this toO!!

I'm also nervous that I will go into labor and push and push and be in pain for hours and then end up needing an emergency Csection.

The epidural only because I had freak (but rare) complications from it with DS. They think it might be something strange with my anatomy so it could happen again!

I"m afraid of needing a csection. I delivered DS vaginally so the Dr. can't see any reason why I shouldn't be able to again, but you just never know.

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

I was so petrified of pooping on the table but to be perfectly honest they whisk it all away so quickly you'd never know!!! Ignorance is bliss people!!!! This time i am afraid of ending up with a section because i had such a great labor last time!!!

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

Mine are a few, but are all related. Basically, the epi didnt work on me the first time, so I don't plan on even trying this time. Therefore, I am really afraid of 1) needing a c-section for a number of reasons, including that if i did need one, i might have to have general and would miss my daughter's birth :( and 2) needing pitocin for any reason, which i know makes contractions worse for longer, and not being able to have any pain relief (Im not willing to use other pain meds because they can affect the baby.

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

Nothing really serious - just that I won't be able to have a VBAC. In a weird, sick way I'm looking forward to all that painful, gross stuff that I didn't get to experience the first time. And I've already had a spinal before so the epi doesn't freak me out at all.

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

Is it weird that I am not scared of the labor/birth? I don't want a c-section, so if anything, it's just not wanting that.

I'm skittish about my back, would prefer no epi.

I'm also not thrilled with my practice, I worry about them not respecting our decisions once the process gets started. Already know we are changng practices for baby 2+

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

If you poop, that means you're pushing the right way!

I did... more than once. I wasn't embarrassed. Actually it wasn't even a thought in my mind. You are so focused on getting that kid out, pooping is the least of your worries. Plus the nurse is so quick to clean up that nobody really sees.

Re: What is the ONE thing your scared/dreading about birth

The pain scares the crap out of me but more than anything that something awful will happen to me or the baby during the birth.
