I'm having my 2nd child in a few weeks. With this video you really described what happened at my 1st labor. From a certain point on, I had almost no connection with my surroundings. My husband, my midwife and my doctor where talking right over me and I had not had the slightest idea of what they where saying. Do you think the 2nd labor is easier than the 1st (5 years ago)?
