I really really want to have kids but......

Question

I love kids. And ive made up my mind that i definately want kids. Im only 15 right now and im not in any rush to get pregnant. But i mean when i actually do get pregnant..i am scared to death of the pain of labor. Once the baby is entirely out, does the pain just..cease? and what are your opnions on c-sections versus vaginal delivery?

Answer 1

dont get pregnant and just keep wondering until you know u can support ur child.and if u want the answer ask someone u know thats had a kid and ask that ques.

Answer 2

This is something you need to be worrying about right now. Hopefully if you are smart, this event will not come about in your life for at least 10 to 15 years.

Answer 3

Why are you worrying about this now.  You should be worrying about school exams and what to wear.  Don't make yourself old before you have grown up into an adult.  Enjoy life.

Answer 4

Well i'm glad to hear you are in no rush, because I'm 23, just had my first baby four months ago and I am whooped! I've never been so tired in my life, and it is the scariest thing I have EVER done because I want to do everything right.

I was scared to death of the pain too, but honestly when you are IN labor, and delivery you really arnt thinking so much about the pain, more about getting this miracle into the world safe and sound, and you are so worried about all that COULD go wrong. But I wont lie... it IS painful. VERY painful. I ever screamed at the DR at one point "Stop it! You're killing me!" lol

The pain does not just cease once the baby is out but these is a sudden releaf to the pain.  You arei n so much pain before that once the baby finally is out the pain that remains seems like NOTHING... still would make a grown man cry though. lol

When you are pregnant speak with your OB about your options. They can tell you whats best for your exact specific situation.

Answer 5

thats because you 15, it shows you are not ready to have chidren the last thing you are concerned about when your having a child is the pain. focus is on the health of your baby. im 20 and had a natural child birth and didnt find it "painfull"

Answer 6

My "Wife" has decided on a C-Section when me and her have Children. I know you "Want" a Child, but those feelings change with time. Take your time, though from the sound of it you are a Smart Girl who has already decided you aren't in a rush for it. Child Birth Tech and Medicine changes rapidly. By the time your time comes, you can be reassured that you won't be lacking options. I do suggest one thing. Before you have a child, Ask to baby sit someones semi-recently born baby. If you are anything like most people, you will stress out from even the tiniest of coughs. If that stress is too much, then you need to re-decide if its still too early.

Hope that helped.

Answer 7

I am glad that u are not in the rush to all that. Having a baby is a wonderful thing. Giving birth is a experience that is unforgettable.

I am a C-section cos I have went thru a 16hr of labour pain ( which I had opt for a normal delivery) that fails to fully dilute as my cervix is too narrow and small for the baby to pass thru.

Actually C-section is not as bad and risky as alot of people think it is. The scare is now pretty much small compare to the olden days.

Maybe you might like to ready up some books that helps in your decision.

Answer 8

well I'm 31 weeks with my first. I'm scared to death of the pain. if all goes well, i much rather have a vaginal birth. c-sections are risky, leaves scars and healing process is much longer. and i'm glad you aren't in any rush to get pregnant.

Answer 9

Get educated first. Then in 10 years or so when you do get pregnant, buy "What to expect when youre expecting" it will fill you in on a lot.
