I'm due in 9 days and I am ABSOLUTELY cacking my pants!!
This is my second child, first was induced, back labour, epidural, 2 hours pushing followed by a major haemorrhage of 1.2 litres.
I'm just so scared. Things keep running through my mind like what if I can't cope with the pain? What if the epidural fails (presuming I'll have it again) what if something terrible happens to me? What if something terrible happens to my baby?
I keep getting pains etc as though labour is starting and then it all goes away but each time this happens I feel physically sick and like I can't breath properly. This makes me scared of just going into labour let alone going through the full lot followed by the birth! And then waiting to see if I haemorrhage again.
I know I sound ridiculous but I'm just feeling so anxious about it all. Any words of wisdom?
