Hehe ty x for both (I'm a bit ocd about lists and detail lol)
I was terrified of birth with my son I was convinced I would die lol. I was 5ft 3 and when I fell pregnant it was the first time my weight had hit 7st before that I was usually 6 - 6.5. (A weight I'll never see again lol) I've been underweight all my life until after birth and I was told my son would be a big 10lber I was mortified I was 6.2 hubby was similar. But son ended up being 7.2 so they got that wrong lol!
But I got told just relax as hard as it sounds let your body do the work don't force or over think anything. Think like the animals do if needs be. If you tense up your muscles clench and it makes everything harder (make a tight fist with your left try to put your finger from your right into the middle of it now do it with your left hand relaxed.... you get the idea!) Im not saying it's easy or it will work for everyone but I only ended up with a minor graze and no stitches x
