The grass is green, the sky is blue, and childbirth is very painful. Fortunately, this is not always the case. We managed to communicate with the lucky ones, for whom the birth was almost imperceptible and practically without pain. Here are their stories.
Valentina, 28 years old
We were planning and looking forward to our first child. I am sure that the “interesting position” is not a disease, so from the first days I set myself up for a quick and easy delivery. But for some reason, the truth was worried that I might miss the fights. Despite the fact that most of my friends assured me to prepare for the terrible pain and long hours of torment, I continued to insist on my own. The pregnancy went without problems and complications. Until the very birth, I led a fairly active lifestyle.
And then came the long-awaited night "X". Waking up at about three in the morning, I went to the toilet and realized that my water was running out. She immediately lifted her husband out of bed, called an ambulance, began to quickly get ready for the hospital and prepare herself for hellish torments.
They examined me in the waiting room and sent me to the delivery room at 7 am. There I was given CTG, checked again and told me to walk more so that contractions began. I did so, but my stomach started to hurt (quite a bit, even less than during the critical days) and I decided to lie down. The contractions soon intensified. At that moment, a midwife entered the ward to do another CTG. After the examination, she said that it was attempts and my baby would be born in 20 minutes. And so it happened! I gave birth at 7.30, getting off with just a slight fright!

The doctor who watched me kept saying that I would give birth ahead of schedule, since the child is the second, and the difference between pregnancies was very small. But I calmly reached 40 weeks. They did not send me to give birth, and I myself did not really insist - I did not want to do the stimulation.
And so on November 14 we went to visit, but it turned out that the elevator did not work (I don’t know, unfortunately it is, or fortunately ...). I had to walk to the 8th floor, but to be honest, it didn't really upset me - I decided that it would be a great stimulation.
We arrived home from the guests at about 22 pm, and at 23.30 I felt contractions. Remembering that the doctor had warned about the possibility of a quick birth, we immediately went to the hospital. Everything happened in a hurry - filling out the documents, examining the midwife and the order: "Quickly to the delivery room!"
I can hardly remember how I got there and put on compression stockings. From the excitement, and from the fact that I was in such a hurry, I did not feel any pain at all. However, the doctors were in no hurry. They told me to lie down and wait, which, in fact, I did. The nurse did CTG (this moment was the most unpleasant for me!). Then a doctor from the emergency department entered the ward. He looked at me in surprise: “How? You haven't given birth yet? "
Then another midwife came to pierce the bladder. I put on gloves, did everything and just started putting on a new pair (change gloves), when my child literally fell into her arms :). She then also scolded me, because they cannot conduct an examination without gloves. But I didn't care: I cried with happiness and hugged my newborn daughter. The clock showed 01.15.
I now agree that “rushing labor is wonderful, easy, fast and painless”. True, I had a dissection of the cervix, so I still had to suffer after giving birth. They stitched me up without anesthesia, I screamed from severe pain, which could not even be compared with contractions.

With a second baby at 36 weeks, I was put in preservation. The ultrasound showed that the internal pharynx opened, the contractions had been going on for 2 days. They identified some problems with blood flow, made droppers with magnesia. On the 3rd day, the contractions stopped, but the tone was terrible, every ten to twenty minutes. The doctor said that it was normal, there was nothing to be afraid of.
In the evening, I felt a strong heaviness in the lower abdomen and heard a click. I got scared and just decided to lie down when there was another click. After that, water began to drain from me. She woke up her roommates by shouting "Girls, I seem to be giving birth!" At first, no one believed me. The husband generally yelled into the phone: “Where? It is too early! Do not!". But the process has already begun.
I went to the post - there I saw 3 more giving birth and a dumbfounded nurse. The doctor checked to see if the water was leaking and told her to go and collect her things. I was in no hurry, because I understood that now they would tie me to the bed - and that was all. I came to the delivery room only an hour later. There is one more examination - the uterus is not ready for childbirth, there was no disclosure. We decided to do a caesarean, but at first they called the department head.
She looked, and the uterus opened by 4 fingers. The shocked doctor with the words "Well, you are a miracle!" leads to the prenatal ward. There are four of us. I lie with a smile, the contractions are going on, but bearable, I rest between contractions. They did CTG and told to lie down for 15 minutes. I went to give birth first, as the attempts began immediately after the procedure. The son appeared literally 10 minutes later.
I never tire of thanking God for a quick and easy birth. I can give future mothers advice - do not be afraid, think about the child and that all this will end soon. Having a positive attitude and self-confidence is very important.

Elena, 26 years old
At the 37th week of pregnancy, the plug came off. I did not attach much importance to this, because during the first pregnancy it happened exactly one month before the PDD. At 5 am my stomach started to ache. I chalked it up to training bouts and wasn't scared at all. After dinner I went to bed, woke up - everything pulls and pulls. A thought flashed through my head: “What if it has already begun?”, But I was confused by different intervals - now 15 minutes, now half an hour.
At 22.30, my husband forcibly put me in the car and took me to the hospital - let them at least take a look. It turned out that I had been in labor for a long time, and the neck had already opened by 7.5 fingers. When the bubble was broken, there was a contraction, but I did not even feel it. The doctors were in a panic. They gave me some medicine. After it, I began to feel at least a little something, but it didn't really hurt. All the time I talked to my sister on the phone. She is an obstetrician herself and could not believe contractions could be so easy. But most of all I remembered how I told her: "That's it, I'll call you back, they said to go to the hospital." At 11.45 I gave birth without breaks. During this time, the husband did not even have time to get home. They still talked for a long time about my wonderful childbirth and how lucky I was, so lucky!
