4 things I did to conquer my fears of pregnancy and childbirth
Many women in my generation keep an awful picture of labour and child birth in their mind.

I can definitely relate with your post. Before giving birth to my daughter, I was terrified of going into labour, but it’s just one of those things that you just go through with a positive mindset 🙂
Yes, congratulations to both of us. Having a fab time these day with my daughter too. Hope we can share more motherhood experiences.
That is definitely so true about movies and birth videos! I was terrified of giving birth and kept just putting it out of my mind, assuming when the actual day came I would deal with it then!

I don’t even remember much about the day other than them placing my beautiful baby on my chest!
That’s true. That’s why it’s good that nowadays women are encouraged by a positive picture of childbirth. It’s a beautiful natural experience. 🙂
I was so scared, too! It’s amazing what we are capable of doing!
Thanks for dropping by. 🙂 It’s great that we were able to conquer our fears. The prize is just awesome.
Super helpful post. I can relate to it well. It takes some time to conquer that fear but it isn’t impossible to do so
That’s true. It also takes a lot of effort. 🙂
This is going to be such a help for all expecting moms.. Thankfully I was given all happy advices by people around. I was really positive before both my deliveries.. And yes meditation and music help me do this.

Glad you had a positive pregnancy experience just as I did. I’m hoping more women will experience the same. 🙂
I was really scared of the birth too. But being informed about the birth process in detail really helped allay a lot of fears.
That’s true. Knowing what you’ll be going through helps a lot to remove anxiety.
I can relate…I think most women are scared even just a little
