There's something that has been on my mind for many years,it's a certain short conversation that i had with a Mid-wife here in the Uk,I was giving birth to my third baby(19/12/89) and I was experiencing a drug free breeze of a time(my first 2 births were the same).The midwife commented about the Lady next door to me who was screaming and in what sounded like the agony of death,"some women are just so weak minded" she said,i nodded,"no pain could be that bad" I replyed.
I was so full of myself,"natural birth,mind over matter,strong minded,self control",was all i kept saying.
My forth babies birth knocked me into shock,i was in complete agony,no amount of drugs could control the pain,the hours seemed never ending,i could not believe what was happening to me.I didn't even know that I could scream that loud.
My fifth babies birth was another drug free breeze.
My sixth babies birth was the most horrific,there are no words to descibe the pain.
I am now expecting my seventh much planned and wanted baby(They all were) and i will be keeping my mind open to pain relief,if i need it,i will have it,simple as.
I want all you Ladies to know that every birth is different,i learnt the hard way---I am so sorry for all the c__p I used to preach regarding pain during birth---NO women is weak who screams during birthing,I was sooooooooooooo Arrogant and selfish,i feel ashamed when i think of all the times i put another female down,mind you i'm going back to 1992 when i came to my senses,so i suppose some of us live and learn-----Good-Luck to all you Ladies,Bless you all and all your Babies xxx.
