Worries and fear is a natural thing. My wife also felt worried and scared, just before during childbirth. My wife was afraid, because it will feel pain during childbirth. But, my wife tries to control himself. Even when my wife gave birth, not screaming. You just need peace, and convince yourself that all will go well. Hopefully you and your baby healthy.

Sorry, no advice I can give, just think of the happiness that you will get, when your baby is born.

Dont be, the only thing that kinda hurt is when you are having a contraction a tightening around your belly and back, actually when i have my baby girl last year it wasnt really bad as what other said that it hurts like crazy..i didnt have any epidural as i want it to be all natural and it wasnt bad at all..i even walk around to help my labor progresses i was in labor for 14 hours til she finally came out of me the pushing thing only last 10 mins as she wants to came outta there fast :-) the doctor almost drop her lol once you have the head out then everything follow...i have a high tolerance in pain, and prayers...goodluck!

"no pain no gain" always think that after you surpassed this 'test' you will be happy with your new born baby, just relax and as doctors say, PUSH!!! goodluck giving birth to your baby :)))
