I'm in a new mom to be (24 weeks), can anyone share their experience of giving birth with an epidural and how the contractions were when your water broke.
Ok perfect lol that's what my sister told me too @pinkegypt , did you work out while you were pregnant?
No because the meds where so strong I didn't feel anything all you feel is the feeling of pooping
how did you manage through the contraction? like when you had your first child, did you cry when the contractions started? @pinkegypt
It works really fast I had it with my first son and I feel asleep and you do get a little cold
I just need the epidural to work for me. lol I watched some videos and women were pushing for hours 😩 @babymontgomery @pinkegypt
Lol yes they weren't to big hopefully this baby will be small as well when the head pop out all I felt was a ring of fire it burned so bad
@badgalmalika, I want in pain while pushing just alot of pressure from his head that's all & I was told I could get it when I was ready but I had to wait 3 hrs because the doctor was doing a c-section so I was natural for about 5 hrs before I even got it I should have asked for it soons I got there @pinkegypt you had small babies lol this dump truck I pushed out lol I wish I would have known he was that big I would have been alittle more prepared
my mom gave birth to all of us natural lol but you are a trooper, I would die going natural lol @pinkegypt
Lol my first kids where 7 pounds my 3 son was 6 pounds my daughter was 4 pounds I hope this baby isn't big
@babymontgomery, with the epidural did u feel any pain when pushing? and how soon were you able to get the epidural once u got to the hospital
I just had my first baby 3 weeks ago & I must say the epidural was the best thing created I was in real tears before I got it my contractions were back to back so it helped wonders @badgalmalika .. @pinkegypt your a trooper i couldn't imagine pushing out my 9lb baby without pain meds sheesh lol Hats off to u girl
Yes when your cervix starts to open you bleed a little not to worry you just go straight to hospital and the check and see how far you are you don't know when you are 3 cm only the doctors know cause they are the ones who have to stick there hand inside of you to check how far you are
If your water brakes or if you start to bleed then you go in usually when you are like 3 cm if you feel pain and are uncomfortable they they can get you pain meds asap baby come when they want lol
I hope and pray it works for me, does the Obgyn know when I'll go into labor or like will I have to figure that out on my own? and I want to make sure I get the epidural in enough time @pinkegypt
Lol then yes try the epideril it's different for everyone but people I have talked with always had problems but it might be different for you
It hurt like hell it feels like really bad cramps and when the baby's head pops out it feels like fire . But it goes pretty fast the warm water feels nice it helped me plus rocking back fourth in the warm water helped a lot but it all depends on how much you can tolerate pain
oh no 😕, how was natural birth then? like how did you manage from when your water broke all the way up to giving birth @pinkegypt
Nope
