I think there are good reasons to avoid an epidural, plus whenever I think too hard about something GOING IN MY SPINE I get dizzy. But, I'm a huge wimp when it comes to pain :/ Idk what to do about this decision.
Personally, the epidural didn't hurt for me. It was just uncomfortable. And my husband sat in front of me and kept me focused on him, so I really didn't even notice it.
There are pros and cons. They put in during a contraction I didn't feel the procedure years ago. Whatever you do, it's your best decision. Don't let blogs, people, new articles, or internet bring you down over your decision! You're just as good as the rest. This time around, I want to labor naturally as much as possible. I didn't feel a thing with my first. I kinda feel robbed of the experience. :/ but that's my personal regret. Who knows what I will be screaming for when I go into labor though. Just go into it with an open mind!
It's painful at first and trust me I was against it but the pain was more than terrible. The epidural was a god send
I had my mind set that I wouldn't get one but since complications came I had to get one. Honestly you don't feel a thing. Your so focused on contractions that you don't feel a thing. My husband talked to me when I had it and I didn't even know they started and finished it was so fast and painless.
yeah there are pros and con's to it, I had to get it because I was a scheduled c section, some people react differently to it of course, but I haven't had any problems with my back since then, its been 6 months
I'm gonna hold out as long as I can with no epidural. I've never had one with my first 2. so I'm not looking forward to getting one, But if it gets to intense I hope I'm not to afraid to get ask for some relief. I'm that type if person that won't ask lol.
I'm scared to get the epidural, and haven't with my other two but I'm still scared of the labor pains. but the way I think of it is, deal with pain that's only tempary or deal with the sides effects that come with the epidural that will/can last the rest of my life.... I'll deal with labor pains lol.
I had my mind set that i wasnt going to get one. My Dr convinced me when i was 7cm 🙄 it helped alot but now my back easily hurts
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
That was the least of my worries..I just braced myself and it was over before I knew it.
