Wanting to have an all natural birth, NO epidural. Any advice or tips? Pain is different for everyone, just the research I've done on getting an epidural seems as if it makes things worse then to help you.

I had a natural birth with my son and honestly the contractions are the worst part and you're gonna have to deal with those whether you have an epidural or not. some people can handle the pain some can't but I know when this one is ready to come I'm definitely having natural again. wouldn't change that for anything ❤ @cynthiafrank25 @tbella91
I'm scared to have an epidural because I've known many woman to have back problems after it.my mom did after she had 3 kids. I'd go natural if I could but idk what to expect as far as pain
Me and my princess first time getting epidural and I’m numb from legs is this normal i can’t walk good yet

Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
!!!!LABOR STORY!!!!
Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger.

The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-...

Got to the hospital at 4 am to start my pitocin, well.. I was put on the drip at 430 am , and was 4cm dilated and 80 percent effaced, an hour later. The nurse came in to check me, hours later, and I was at 6 cm. I got the epidural at 6cm.. But it didn't work for me, no more than 20 minutes later, I couldn't take the pain, I was screaming and crying.. And felt everything.. most terrible pain ever, I called for my nurse to come in and she checked me again, said I was ready to deliver, babys head ...
