ABOUT CHILDREN
For a woman there is no more significant and unforgettable event than the birth of a child. A woman who has given birth to a child can be equated to a man who went through the war! When soldiers return from the war, they feel that no one can understand them, feel how it was, except those who went through it themselves, the same with a woman after childbirth.
There is even a joke that if you ask an old 100-year-old woman who no longer remembers her name, about her birth, she will definitely tell you about them!
This is not forgotten even with multiple sclerosis!
There are no rules and established norms by which a woman could predict what awaits her. There are easy births, and there are difficult, but no one has a painless birth. Some women experience less pain, others more due to physical and psychological condition. No matter how different the birth, the physical process is basically the same. At some point in pregnancy, the woman's body and the fetus signal the uterus to begin contractions and labor begins. Although doctors may temporarily suspend or expedite labor, it is an inevitable and powerful process. Pain, fear, loss of self-control - these are the usual feelings of childbirth.
It is said that a woman gives birth the way she lives! How strong is this pain? Usually women describe childbirth as follows: in the early stages "very unpleasant", during contractions "terrible" and "painful" during the last period of childbirth. But not everything is so bad, the pain during contractions can not be compared with other pain.
Another reason why pain during childbirth cannot be compared to pain caused by a broken arm is that it is not perceived as threatening. It serves a good purpose, as if in - good. Psychologists say that pain that is not considered harmful is easier to tolerate.
An important fact for a woman is the choice of doctor. The doctor must be sensitive, understanding, to provide a separate ward. Of course, you will worry, but you will feel safe.
Similarly, communication with other women can be very useful. Of course, there is always the danger that you will hear many horrible stories. But I think because women hear talk of childbirth from childhood, it doesn't really scare them. Because they have already heard a lot of stories. Sometimes childbirth is easy, but for 98% of women who have had a difficult time, the next day comes when they walk and talk and live, and they will tell you what it feels like to be through it and it's over!
