In short, here's how it went! As I wrote, painful contractions started at 8 AM and I gave birth at 14:20... girls, the most important thing is to breathe correctly and really push harder, push really really hard — don't be afraid that hemorrhoids will come out or that you'll poop. Push really really hard, the baby's head comes out like it's coming out of your butt, really push hard. Another tip: listen to the midwife carefully, if you get a good one — everything depends on her too. To be honest, it's very hard without partners, of course — they leave you there alone and you lie, sit, walk, sometimes cry... If you're having a boy, mostly your lower back will hurt more during labor; if it's a girl, lower belly and bladder. I gave birth to both a son and a daughter, so I can confirm this. Honestly, it hurts a lot. At the end I was breathing very fast ? — at 8 cm dilation it was 3 seconds screaming and 3 seconds breathing, “fu-fu-fu” like that during the pushing when you already want to poop but you can't. Patience and only patience, girls... And when contractions come, inhale and exhale through your lips; yes, for 2–4 hours you'll want to sleep, you'll feel weak, you'll want to lie down, but then when the waters break, even stronger pains will start... if the waters don't break within 4 hours they break them themselves... then there will be strong, even stronger and faster contractions. Yes, I know I'm probably scaring you, but everyone is different — some have mild pain, some severe... it was very painful for me ? patience and strength to you! But it's worth it!!! If you have more questions, write!!!! I had a small tear, try to give birth without a tear!
