@nicolemarie5496, if you need to get an epidural do it! you should be comfortable to I see no reason not to. @gunlovinmommy I had my first 2 with no epidural. I'm planning on no drugs with this one either. so I don't thin is messed up I liked the feeling of being in control and knowing when I needed to push.
all that pain will be worth it in the end 😉. just breath, and walk around if you can. grip a blanket during contractions, and remember your getting closer to meeting your little one. good luck 😊
