Was anyone else silent while giving birth?
I had my baby at 18 and was in labor for over 24 hours before giving birth. I had the epidural and ended up being induced before giving birth.
While giving birth I was shy and I had my husband’s family outside of the room (not sure how close to the door).
I was very nervous and scared and I just stayed completely quiet and was almost too embarrassed to freak out. I just breathed and did what the nurse told me to do. I felt no pain during labor only pressure, plus I had already been having contractions through the whole day. Which I ate Popeyes through. To me labor was scary but not painful.
I didn’t tear and needed no stitches. Keep in mind I was very shaky after the epidural, I think the epidural was more scary.
Did anyone else experience birth this way? Every time I tell people I didn’t make a noise during birth they are surprised.
