I'm scared to give birth again.

So I had dd last April. Ds is due next month and I'm starting to feel twinges etc. Not only am I worried about leaving dd with my lovely dm, but I'm scared of the labour.
Last time the contractions weren't bad but I'm so scared I'll be c sectioned. The labour wasn't so smooth sailing. She got stuck and had to be pushed down. We both also got tired and halfway through pushing I tried so hard but both of us struggled. An dd was so so tiny.

The thing is, ds is huge. Absolutely huge. My bump is massive. I can feel exactly where he is through an anterior placenta. Limbs come out occasionally and even the midwife told me he was a very long big boy. So I'm scared to deliver this huge baby boy of mine.

Good experiences please?

Don't you worry yourself Lovely. I've had a good few babies, my largest 10lb 5oz, was by far my easiest, and also my second child.
All births are different, so don't allow yourself to over think it, is my advice. Your body will do what it has to do, regardless.
Better a little baby in your arms, however he/she may get there.

Thank you ♥ you're very right. Better he is healthy no matter how he gets here :)

Oh it is scary. I had a stuck baby too. However when I’m in labour I’m not actually that scared weirdly. Concentrate on that amazing moment that you see your newborns face.
Oh it’s the best feeling ever.

I've had two emergency c sections, they're nothing to be scared about honestly.
