I was so terrified all through my pregnancy, kept crying and having panic attacks at the thought of it all.....I was 12 days overdue and was induced...spent 36 hours on induction/labour ward and it was just fine!!! An overwhelming sense of calm came over me when I got to hospital-like I finally accepted I had to get on with it. I didnt really have a lot of pain-I never got to "established" labour as I didnt dilate past 3cm after being on drip for 9 hours 
Ruby was back to back so just had bad backache really, but I coped with no pain relief (much to amazemet of OH and midwives who had seen how frightened I had been on previous visits) I had a c section in the end and it was fab, a really positive experience. I loved it, and will never forget the feeling when she was lifted from me, I get weepy now when I talk about it, it was AMAZING!!!!
I wouldnt do it again, I feel Ruby will be an only child-purely coz she has completed me now. My pregnancy was amazing and so was the birth. I was blessed and loved every second of everything xxxx
