And that was only the muscular contractions they experienced. They didn't have the tearing, bleeding, or pelvic shifts that also occur during labor...
I want children of my own someday, and I consider myself to be fairly good at handling pain that I know is coming, but it still doesn't make me dread the labor any less.
My pregnancy was great. I felt so healthy and strong (probably all of those vitamins). I was so excited when labor began, but after I settled into my room at the hospital it hit me....Uh oh...I don't know if I can do this. And then I just started laughing at myself, thinking you HAVE to do this dummy. He can't stay IN there!
I had an extremely difficult delivery, but God was with us. It really IS worth it.
I'm a twin, and I also have a brother who is 2 years older than me. My poor mother (well, my dad did help too, but my mom stayed at home so she had her hands full) had two infants and a 2 year old. I can't imagine.
I try to thank her when I can for putting up with us all.
That video was pretty hilarious. As much as I want kids one day, I do not look forward to the labor pains. Yikes... and Zero, don't even mention twins. One is scary enough, two is like beyond scary.
I think my kidney stone pain was worse than my labor pain (13 hours worth). After seeing this, I'm thinking there might be fewer children if men had the babies.
I've heard that from a nurse who had 10 kids and passed 13 stones. Said she's rather have another 5 kids than one more stone.
The payoff afterwards helps, I guess.
I've endured countless kidney stones over the past 6 years. I've not needed the narcotics since the first one, but I can get a little grumpy. I do keep some narc at the house (7 oxy) that was prescribed to me, and am not shy about letting people know they can audit me on that anytime. It says something about both the strength of will and character that God has built up inside me (His will, not mine) and something about how intense that pain can be, that someone like myself who has had past problems with substance abuse will keep that around for a "just in case" moment. God has surely changed me. Praise be to God for the changes in my life. Praise further still for women and their willingness and ability to bear children. God created you Extra special. Glory to God.
