I thought about having a natural birth for a little bit but My mother asked me to get an epidural because she had me natural and we both died for several minutes, they barely got either of us back, and she doesn't want me to go through anything like that, so I started looking into epidurals and I made the decision to get one, because I don't handle pain well anyway. Well my SO'S mom asked me last night what I was planning on doing and I told her I was going to get an epidural and she like flipped the fuck out on me because "she had all of her kids natural and I need to quit being such a selfish bitch and worry more about my child than myself." I was speechless.

@babyhorton16, Honestly it's not any of your mother in laws business its your body not hers

I was just in shock. I've had people hint that natural birth is what your body is made for and that I should try it, but nobody has talked to me like that.

Wow all around. MILs get weird sometimes about that stuff. I'm sorry she flipped out on you! And I have no idea what your mom went through, but I can't imagine how having an epidural would keep that from happening to you? Either way, do what you're comfortable with girl.

People will always have something to say. Do what you feel will be best. And you may change your mind or circumstances may not allow one way or the other. There is always a risk with any kind of anesthesia, but just because something happened to your mom doesn't mean it will happen to you.

I would love to flip the fuck out on her but she's dying as it is and My SO begs me to be nice to her. He tries to talk to her but the old witch is stuck in her hateful ways.

Fuck that! I'm sorry but that is SO unbelievably disrespectful to you! It's YOUR baby, YOUR body, YOUR decision! It's none of her god damn business. I would be livid girl!

Birth Plan Rant I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?

3RD UPDATE: What would you do?

3RD UPDATE: What would you do? Ok, so we have these new neighbors they have been there renting the house 2 doors down for about 3 months or so. They have a 2 year old boy, he just turned two. They have asked me to babysit him on multiple occasions, just so happens I've been busy each time. In my mind, they don't know me or anything about me. Barely know my name and they want me to watch their kid because they see I have kids and stay home. Apparently they haven't had any luck with the babysitters they have had. Well his sister just moved in and she had the little boy all morning. I get a text at 11 from the mom asking if I can come get the boy because the sister needs to leave to work on her car?.... I told her I would but was on my way to the store and would be back at 12 and would get him then. So I get back and the sister brings him over. He doesn't know me at all, but he is a very good little boy. I had no problems with him the whole time. So here is my question, I watched him from 12 to 530, the mom texted at 2 and asked how much I told her 10-15 just because I'm nice. If it was me in that situation on such short notice and someone saving my ass to watch my kid I would give them 15-20 if they said 10-15. So the dad picked him up and said the mom would pay when she got home. I just texted and asked her because she's been home since 6 (now it's 930) if she was bring over the money, I was super nice about it. She said her husband had to go to the bank, so he went and came back and then she texted me that it was on the front porch. They gave me $8. Like really? I just find this super weird. Would you be kinda thrown back by this also? I definitely learned my lesson and won't be "helping out" anymore. I just thought this was nuts.
