I Fear Giving Birth

I'm not pregnant nor do I plan on getting pregnant ever, lol. But childbirth seems really scary just for how painful it looks! I had an opportunity to see my sister giving birth when she had her baby last Saturday but I chickened out. 😥 But oddly enough my sister says the depiction of women giving birth in the media seems a little overly dramatic, having given birth herself twice. She says it is indeed very painful but it's never had her screaming in agonizing pain. But then again, she was on painkillers both times she gave birth so maybe it really is that bad doing it the all-natural way. 😅 She did tell me once that "If it hurts that bad even when I'm on pain medicine then I don't ever want to experience a natural birth!" 😬

Not something in my future either. Idk...the pain shown in movies & TV does look exaggerated, but I have no idea.
