Do you girls who have recently given birth think there is any truth about the fitter you are the better/easier you cope with labour or is it rubbish? Any super fit mums still had a nightmare and long labour or unfit mums had a quick easy one?
Just asking cos I'm still at the gym every day, one reason being to cope with labour easier (now I'm old!) I had my daughter 14 years ago with a quick easy 4 hour labour and although I was super fit when I got pregnant I let myself go during pregnancy and turned into a fat lazy blob, so I wonder if it makes any difference or if your body will cope how it's going to cope whatever you do to prepare?
