The "pain" hype is bigger than the  event.

Carol Burnett said, "Take your lower lip and pull it over the top of your head."  Robin Williams said, "YOU try passing a bowling ball."  LOL!!!  Fun stuff - but remember, they're comedians.

I had two difficult deliveries, the second without meds.  (Neither compared to the pain of my foot surgery.)  It's not the horrific event TV and movies present.  Yeah, it hurts.  But the euphoria that follows erases it all !! ❤️ !!

The pain is temporary.  The love is eternal.

Yeah, I'm not going to lie, it hurts, a lot. You will be beside yourself in pain. But I looked at it this way. For hundreds of years women have been giving birth, until recently with no pain medication. Never have women stopped having children because it hurt too much. People with multiple children obviously decided to continue to have children. If it hurt so bad that it caused lasting mental anguish, people wouldn't do it!!! You have one child, you forget the pain long enough to have another.  It's tolerable because having that baby is worth everything you have to go through to have them.

Depends on how old you are..... If you are under say 22 (cuz lets face it most people gotta have their drinking year) it is the most excruciating pain imaginable. You will beg the doctor to just kill you to put you out of your misery! You will rip off body parts of the man who knocked you up and your head will spin around like a possessed person.

Now if you are older then 23 then it is one of them moments you will never forget and if a body will allow it, I feel every person should experience at least once. And if you are married there is a bond that transends through the two of you as you look at this precious little treasure the two of you created. And yes the pain is forgotten once that angel is placed in your arms.

As a man, I can't possibly give you a meaningful answer.

But I will suggest that part of your concern about the pain issue is actually a part of a fear of the unknown that you are thinking of as fear of the potential pain you may experience.

You may be psyching yourself out a bit.  If you stay "stuck" in your position for a significant length of time, a professional counselor could help you with sorting things out so that you make a decision about childbearing that you are comfortable with.

You do understand that the pain can be controlled by medication if needed.  But the main reason to hold off on having a child is not the pain of it .. But making sure you're ready to independently support a child emotionally and financially.  It's a huge 24/7 responsibility.  If the pain is your main concern, you're probably not mature enough for that challenge yet.

Believe me when I say this  ..  The pain of childbirth is the easy part !

There is far more to being a parent and popping out a baby  .  A lifetime of commitment to  mentor,  care for  And unconditionally love  ..  Even when it's not " easy " ..  Putting someone else's wants and needs far above your own For your entire lifetime .

If you're really worried about pain and that's what is holding you back, then don't have a kid. That's kinda selfish.
