“I had to dig deep. I knew it was going to be the craziest pain in my life, but you have to surrender to it and be like, ‘This is what it is.’ I loved that,” said Gigi of giving birth.
“There definitely was a point where I was like, ‘I wonder what it would be like with an epidural, how it would be different,’ " she recalled. “My midwife looked at me and was like, ‘You’re doing it. No one can help you. You’re past the point of the epidural anyway, so you’d be pushing exactly the same way in a hospital bed.’ "
“I know my mom and Zayn and Bella were proud of me, but at certain points I saw each of them in terror. Afterward, Z and I looked at each other and were like, ‘We can have some time before we do that again,’ " recalled Gigi.
