Focus on just that one contraction. Don't think about how much longer it will be, or how many more contractions there will be. Just one contraction at a time. That really helped me.

I think there is kind of a culture of fear surrounding the pain of birth that isn't helpful...like how in almost every movie the woman is shrieking GET ME THE DRUGS! <br />I mean, it's not a pleasant experience and it does hurt, but I'm not at all what I would consider tough, and I've always managed the pain just fine. Our bodies were made to do this!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09332944027749421229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1269431956658509659.post-88607057281877210492014-10-09T08:09:13.854-04:002014-10-09T08:09:13.854-04:00I really love all you posts about the pregnancy an...I really love all you posts about the pregnancy and "letters" to baby Pep! I discovered your blog just a few weeks before you announced the pregnancy and kept reading it mostly because I love your view about the pregnancy and also really enjoyed reading this post and I could not agree more with your thoughts. <br /><br />I am not pregnant yet and it will probably take more than two years until my husband and I will start family planning but I still really enjoy reading it and will probably re-read them when I'll be pregnant because they are a great source and so honest. :) <br /><br />By the way, did you realize that there is a very famous soccer player who's name seriously is Pep? :) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pep_Guardiola) Maybe your little boy will be a soccer player once. ;) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06194842103800108512noreply@blogger.com
