So im 32 weeks and labor has really been running the my mind as i get closer n closer and i been reading a lot on epidurals and i think i made up my mind on not getting one .. Does anyone reccomend a diffrent method ? Or anyone gone completely natural with no medication ? I just feel like if ur medicated u dont get to experience the birth of your baby cause ur all drugged up ... Idk im a first time mom so idk what to think or do when it comes down to it im actually scared but excited at the same time aha
I got an epidural with my son but as soon as his head was crowning they turned it off so by the time he was actually born I didn't have any medication going into me so I never really got the drugged-up feeling. But my daughter, she came so fast that I didn't have time for an epidural and it really wasn't that bad but she was only 2.9 pounds.
I had both my girls all natural. No meds at all. I would definitely recommend this bc I personally feel it is best for the baby too since they don't get any drugs either. I will say that it is extremely painful, but as soon as baby is out, you don't care about the pain. I'm personally scared of epidurals. Ultimately it's up to you. Good luck!
Thank u ! I decided i am going to go all natural cause i mean the pain will only last so long but it will all be worth it in the end @sarahb518 ....thank u @mybabyloves
