Any one who has had a baby but didn't get an epidural? Was the pain totally unbearable? Or was it do…

@hkatedavis, i got the epidural but if i ever have another baby im going natural had back problems after epidural.

I already have had major back issues since early high school and I'm afraid it'd make it much worse. Plus I want to do it naturally with no help like that. I'm just scared of the pain

@patgom47,

@hkatedavis, i got to 7cm before i got epidural, i honestly only got it for i can sleep haha its more uncomfortable than anything

Its not that bad the contractions are tolerable lol

I had two without an epidural. first time it didn't even hurt, second time I was scream for it but my water broke and baby came out so it was too late.

You can do it. It definitely hurts but honestly for me it was worth it to have my baby be active and not drugged up as soon as he came into the world. That's all I thought about during the contractions and I made it through :)

I tried with my first 2 and I couldn't handle the pain at all. I was bummed because I really didn't want an epidural. So I'm gonna try my best this time to endure the pain and go natural! Because like @2_fahrenwald_boys I don't want my poor baby all drugged up. Wish me luck! Lol

I had no epidural with my 1st. The pain was bearable, I also labored a lot in a pool so that helped.
