I say yes, have a baby (if you a both truly ready to take on this responsibility). As far as the pain, well, everyone has a different tolerance for pain. Most women do not remember the pain afterwards. Obviously, if they did and it was too much they would not have anymore children. To put it politely, the pain that I endured from having my children was nothing like what others had described to me. To me it felt as if I had to take a crap that I had been holding in for days and after I did it was the best feeling in the world. I know that it seems sick to think of it that way but the pressure that you feel right before delivery is extremely uncomfortable and very relieving when it is all said and done. As soon as you see your babies face it is all forgotten.
Do not get discouraged because of the fear of pain. Just remember babies are born everyday and women live through it. Good luck to you and your future family!!!

Well if you want to get pregnant having sex at least 2 weeks before your period everyday or every other day. Youll have a great chance of getthing pregant. And well the contractions is what hurts. The baby coming out well is very very weird it feels like theres something stuck down there and there is lots of pressure. But that dont last long. After wards the pains goes away and you and your husband will be holding a new precious life. No birth control no condoms, just sex. Good luck to both of yous.

I had a C-sec with the first and an epidural with the second. I felt no pain with childbirth. Needless to say, I got my tubes tied and now will never feel pain with childbirth. It all depends on how well you handle pain too, and if the epidural works for you or not. My sis had a natural childbirth and now she doesn't want anymore kids ever. Good luck, and happy baby making.

Not really that bad. Epidurals are great. I just had my third in march of this year and I watched tv during the whole process lol Even natural isnt really all that bad. I had 2 of them natural. With an epidural I never felt a thing.

Very painful. You are trying to push something the size of a grapefruit (the head) through a garden hose (your vagina). Of course it hurts!
Don't worry about it too much. Women have been surviving it since Eve. There are breathing techniques you learn in Lamaze class that will help. An epidural will eliminate the pain. There are things to help today, so just enjoy your little bundle of joy.

Giving birth is painful,but just like everything else, it's different for everyone. The good part is you forget the pain once you see your newborn in your arms!!

I had a vaginal delivery with no pain meds, and it wasn't bad at all, I don't remember any of the pain. even after 8 hours of labor

The pain is different with different women. For some it's mildly uncomfortable, for some it's hell. I fell into the latter camp, but my friend had it easy.

it is very painfull. i suggest that you go to a prenatal class and learn some breathing exercises. it is the only way i got through having most of my labor drug free. if you decide to have an epedurl...easy peasy don't worry one little bit.

epidural can take off 100% of the pain
