So to cut a long story short this is my 3rd pregnancy. My 2 sons I was induced with and had my waters broken at the hospital and all stages monitored their. So this time around I feel very nervous when u lie here at night thinking about it I feel so anxious of the unknown and kmowing it could happen at anytime now scares the he'll out of me. And the not knowing what to expect from a normal birth. I sound crazy considering I've already had 2 baby's lol think I just needed to get it off my chest

Check out the positive birth company online pack.

I’m 39+1 with my second. Had a terrible birth first time round and was crazy nervous to do it again.

Still a bit anxious but feeling much better having done the course.

I will feel the same next time. My waters broke at home but baby wasn’t moving so we rushed in. Everything was ok but I stayed in there from the very first contraction and had to be induced as I was only 1.5cm dilated in 12 hours! You will be fine! And remember to talk to your midwife if you feel anxious. Mine was very helpful. Good luck!

See I had okay labours but delivery was awful had the emergency cord pulled with both and both boys not breathing and took to neo once born. But the labour part wasn't to bad I guess. I think it's more the not knowing what's going to happen this time or when and I still don't feel ready for her to come yet.. I havent thought about it much until this week and then it's finally hit me lol so to speak.

This is my 4th and 3rd is only a year he was induced and horrendous labour im 30 weeks and dreading this labour only ever used gas and air tube to chew on in all my labours but defo thinking about acctually using the gas and air but my mind tells me ive done it 3 times before i can do it again one last time.

Then again i lie awake at night bricking it lol like you its the fear of the unkown not being in control and not knowing when its happening ...

You have done this before keep telling your self this you can do it my midwife is suggesting watching hypnobirthing on YouTube... we'll see haha... You will do amazing and if you need something stronger to help you so what im past caring what i have now I've done 3 natural im entitled to something at this stage haha xx

My delivery was bad aswell my 3rd went into cardiac arrest at 12 days old aswell with numerour times at the hospital before so bricking about my little girl coming as my youngest is only one.

Just remember you are in control the hospital has to have your and your babys best intrests at heart ... you let them know what you want ...

my midwifes where horrendous screaming at me cause i was tachycardia and so was my son he had clips on his head i had to stand my full labour and delivery as contractions went away if i sat down.

was getting ecgs done every 15 mins then my placenta wouldn't detach 3 hours they tried to get it out put a catheter in ready for surgery then a dr came in just as i was getting taken to theatre she tugged and ripped it.

no gloves on no anti biotics after i ended up with a infection then they discharged me 5 hours later my son was severly jaundiced and had fluid in his lungs hence the phenomia and cardiac arrest at 12 days.

This is why im bricking it ive spoke to a consultant who will be overseeing i get the right treatment this time and any sign of either of our heart rates dropping i will be emergancy c -sectioned not treating how i was last time.

You are the mother you know whats right and whats not you will be fine maybe look at the hypnobirthing i think I'm going to lol xx
