thought once again id ask you all for some of your thoughts and opinions please...i am 31 + 2 weeks and am extremely fearfull of giving birth.i have seen some births on the web that people pass comment on ie ''how beautifull'' and to me it looks like a horror show!!!i have booked with an independent mw and find that talking to her has helped sooo much.believe it or not i was even more scared a couple of months ago!!! i am planning a home water birth as i live 2 mins from hospital and feel my local hospitals are currently offering very poor care etc etc (thats another thread)!!so the plan is to give birth at home with 2 lovely mw's.HOWEVER i keep having these massive 'wobbles' where i doubt my ability to even give birth and start asking people to describe to me what a contraction feels like and how a baby fits out of there!!! i actually read a thread on mumsnet today about an article in the guardian talking about how elective cs is safer than vaginal birth and how many suffer with terrible problems down below as a result of a vaginal birth!!! this has brought on another big 'wobble'! i am also very keen not to have dh see the whole thing from down there as i feel so uncomfortable just thinking about that......please tell me im not the only one with these horrible irrational thoughts!!
