i must be completely mad

edited May 2011 in Trying to conceive
Because I read some of the birthing stories here on pregly and watch the birthing shows on television and I literally cringe when I see these things and read them but here I am ttc. I suppose I've made it up in my head that the result will be worth all the disgusting things my body will do. I mean I felt the same way before getting my period and even though I still kinda get disgusted with myself whenever af shows her ugly face [I guess mostly because I wasn't successful at conceiving] I cope. Also before ever getting a pelvic exam I thought it would be the most awful experience but its actually not that bad. Anyone else like me?

  • I think its because our bodies just know how to do this one thing, reproduction is the main purpose of all living organisms. Even if we're not aware of it our bodies know what to do but sometimes being conscience human beings makes us thiink too much and doubt ourselves. Besides pain is objective, infact scientists dont even know where pain goes once it reaches the spine. Thats why yoy get cases where people have lost a limb but it still hurts. I dunno its weird but thats what I love about our world, mystery.
  • @momtobe19 ohh phantom limbs yea I've read about that. My grandpa lost an eye and describes feeling that way.
  • You shouldnt be scared, :-) you should watch videos where the moms just pop them out they are very empowering.

  • @momtobe19 @tricesbaby yea I saw the buisness of being born and its amazing what our bodies are capable of. Like we've been doing this since WAY before modern medicine and did it by ourselves at the time.
