hiya just wanna say im 18 years old and have a 7 week old baby boy. like you two, i was soo scared about giving birth, as so many people scareed me with their stupid stories. giving birth is painfull il admit. BUT.. its a pain u learn to cope with and it becomes natural to breath and deal with the pain. i went in the birthing pool through most of my labour, which seamed to help the pain, and my bf was there making sure i was cool- by spraying cold water on my face- giving me a drink of water- biscuits and most of all keeping me awake! lol. gas and air made me sleepy and the pethadine did! but looking back it was quite a funni experience because i sed some stupid fings lol. and i was worried i wouldnt bond with my son but wen he was born it felt natural and you will get so much help from every1. x good luck to u both! take care x
