Hi All
I am 17 weeks today, fairly chilled out so far but am obviously starting to ponder the whole birth processs.
My best friend, when pregnant with her first, decided to prepare herself by watching the childbirth programmes on Discovery channel. Her husband came home to find her in a sobbing heap on the sofa, gibbering that she "couldn't go through with all that". He then banned her from watching Discovery
I want to be prepared, but don't want to scare myself silly like she did. Any advice on whether watching these programmes will help or hinder please? I am totally open minded about all birth methods at present, have made no decisions re: pain relief, just want to get it over and done with as quickly/positively as possible!
