How many moms plan on or did a natural birth ? If not did the epidural work for you ?

I'm planning a natural birth, my hospital has natural birthing suites with spa tubs that you stay in while you're in labor. I've heard it's more comfortable.

I plan on getting an epidural. It worked great for me with my first.

I plan on going natural but it might change

I plan on an unmedicated birth! I'd prefer as little intervention as possible. I have my first appt with my midwife tmw. I'll be delivering in a hospital that has laboring tubs, which I plan to use! :) I know things can change in the moment but our bodies are made for this so I hope I can do it.

I'm planning a home birth in a water tub!

im planning on getting the epidural again it worked wonders for me with my 3 pregnancies before this one it helped me be able to rest a little in between contractions since they were so strong not long after getting epidural i went straight from 5cm to pushimg at 10cm they had to call for my husbamd he was getting his lunch from the cafeteria lol everyones experience is different the only thing that will truely matter the most is you holding your precious little one in your arms @madasynmommie

I had all 3 of mine with out any kind of pain meds

at all and i plan on doing the same with this pregnancy as well. All I can say is i always felt 100% normal and pain free right after each one of their births .

I wanted to do natural but i changed my mind last minute cause pain was so bad and girl that epidural was bomb !!!! Made me feel so good

I am hoping for my second home birth. I had a great birth with my first at home. I was comfortable and able to focus on my body and what I needed to do without interventions. We also took a class and I think that really helped us out. I also read and watched videos so I could best prepare myself. Every birth is different and so is everybody. Just remember one thing you were made to do this ❤️Best of luck!

@towens921, @windingsmama4 @amaperalta03 did you ladies have any problems after getting the epidural? Like bad back pains etc etc

I have a dislocated disc in my lower spine I've always had a bad back so I never noticed the difference

Is the disc from the epidural ? @amaperalta03

the only thing i really didnt care to much for is how heavy your lower body feels so they have you stay in bed for a few hours until it wears off @madasynmommie

Girl I'm planning on natural but the way my pain tolerance is set up , idk how long that will last lol .

No I've had it since I was younger so I've always just had a bad back . I don't feel like it got worse cause of the epidural

I'm planning on birthing with hypnobabies and a natural birth

No I didn't notice anything significant. I for an IUD not too long after I had my daughter and they cause back pain.
