My husband told me today he thinks I could have easily gone without the epidural when I gave birth. granted, the epidural only worked on one side of my body after about 2 hours, so I got to feel a lot of the pain... maybe I could, but I like to think I got to escape a lot of pain by having it work on at least half of my body, lol!!

@cbe2016, oddly, I felt that I recovered really fast. I even had some stitches and stuff, but all the things they sent me home with really helped me feel ok. my baby was also in the NICU for 19 days, so I guess I was more focused on that at the time.

So you were pretty much induced too lol.

I would do labor and deliver all over again. It's just the recovery I would dread. To me that has been the worse part.

@cbe2016, my water broke on its own while I was at work, but they gave me pitocin once I got admitted lol, cause I wasn't dilated at all. it made the contractions really hard. I just didn't enjoy the pain, and don't want to do it again lol.

Aww. That sucks. But I agree that if you did it with a messed up epidural you could do it without one. Even that one sided pain sucked lol. I got mine placed asap but I was also induced too.

@cbe2016, I got to the pushing part too fast after they put my epidural in, the anesthesiologist was in a c section and couldn't get to me in time to fix it lol.

Mine did the same thing. I felt everything on my right side. I felt them break my water and put the catheter in. I finally got a second epidural 3 hours later and it worked.

from my water breaking to his birth was 12 hours and 21 minutes, and I did about half of that with no pain meds really. hopefully all my future labors are as fast lol! @ellizet13

Yea it felt like my tail bone was breaking apart and I could feel my daughters head move the catheter around. I was in labor for 8 hours. So it wasn't too bad.

They tried rolling me over and it didn't make a difference for me :-( @ellizet13

omg that happened to me. They kept turning me on each side because she would fall asleep. So the only part that got numb was the side I was on.

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
