Pregnancy Info HOME

I highly recommend counselling to see if this fear stems from something else, especially as you mentioned you have had it from such a young age. If you are not necessarily afraid of the pain of childbirth I suggest trying to do it as natural as possible, as your chances of tearing, being cut or having the baby vacuumed out are drastically reduced when an epidural is not used, because you have more control over how you push & in what position. Apart from getting counselling talk to your doctor about ways to minimise or control your panic attacks, to help lower your stress levels.
