I'd say counseling is first on the agenda. You won't magically get patience from being pregnant; it can make a difference that it's your own child, but I wouldn't count on that. From some of your posts on here about children, I hope for your child's sake you work on developing some empathy and understanding.

I took Bradley Method classes with my first - I really learned a LOT in those classes about how to have a successful, natural birth. It seems a bit dogmatic to me, now - like they believe they have the *right* way to give birth! But it was helpful for where I was. Both of my boys were born at home; neither is circumcised. Had to follow my gut on that one!
