Hi ladies, this is my first post here and I need some reassurance.
My hubby and I are planning to start trying for a baby in the next several months. Right now I am just tracking my cycle, since I have been on BC for so long I have no sense of my cycle.
The thing is, I am SO squeamish about all things medical. To be honest, one of the things that has been holding me back from wanting to get pregnant is fear of bloodwork of all things. I just absolutely hate the idea of IV's and bloodwork, and even thinking about them now makes me feel a little off.
Obviously bloodwork is the very least of my concerns in reality, but it's just an example. And of course I am terrified of labor. And the idea of a needle being put in my spine.. the list goes on.
I just need to wrap my head around the idea that this will be SO worth it and that as a 30 year old woman I can totally handle having an IV! I just need some reassurance.. is anyone else out there really squeamish like me?
Thanks for your support..
