I went all natural with my daughter, my first. I had PITOCIN because I was induced. PITOCIN hurts and it hurts bad. It makes stronger contractions. I felt as though I had a blow torch up my rear and Freddy Kruger was digging my insides out with flames of fire. But I lived. lol my second, my son, I said I want the epidural ASAP! I got it but it didn't work. 😒 same pain as my first. Too much pain to breath through it. Phew! For 4 days after I had stiff neck and migraines. Couldn't even walk my head hurt so bad. It was from the epi. Apparently it was placed wrong. I'm getting the epi again but new hospital this time. lol I took many things for distractions too. Will again. It's all worth it in the end tho.. you don't forget the pain but once you hold that miracle you don't care about the pain anymore. ☺️

lol omg I'm going to be horrible when it's my turn. I keep saying I think I'm going to poop myself

Yah contractions almost took me out lol, I HAD to get the epidural and the epi didn't hurt. That was my biggest fear getting a big ass needle in my back but them contractions made me say f**k that! Nd I had extremely bad back labor so I felt like I was being stabbed or my butt was about to explode with every contraction. The epidural took the sharp pains away but I still felt pressure in my butt

lmaoooo omg sounds horrible I'm going to be pushing it even while I'm sleeping lol

Shots definitely hurt I thought the epidural would too but I didn't even feel it I didn't even know he touched me yet lol my fiancé was so dramatic like how didn't you get that big ass needle lol them contractions be so bad no other pain matters make sure u push that button push it even when u think u already pushed it too many time trust me you gone need it lol the nurses was like didn't you get the epidural I'm like yeah they was like how r u still moving like I was like I was all over the bed lol I was sleep to long I forgot to push the button and woke up and it was too late for me lol I stoped pushing and everything like I need a break lmao @collette1

thanks everyone and if there that bad and I even think getting a shot hurts I have some real pain coming lol@sarahssmommiee .idk if I'm ever going to do this again lml

had my 1st son natural..20 min of pushing doesn't hurt when he came out had 2 hr contractions that shit hurts like someone's pulling your organs apart.My. 2nd son pushed 20 min also 2 hr contractions had an epidural didn't help because..when they were giving it to me that exact moment was having a contraction..:/ each time i went to labor and delivery i was 4 cm..got to #10 in 2 hrs both times..

contractions are extremely painful BUT focusing on your breathing helps alot! well for me at least. i was 1cm when i went in i refused the epidural and i just kept breathing thru the contractions i didnt feel then until i was about 5cm. i made it to 8cm without the epidural then his heart starting failing mind u i was induced & 8 days over his due date. so they had to do a emergency c section so i ended up getting the epidural which was like magic!! but if i didnt have to have that c section i would have went without the epidural because the contractions are painful but if u can just breath thru them u can do it all natural.

Contractions are no joke! The whole maturnity ward had to of heard me screaming lol. That epidural was everything! It did hurt a little getting it and he had to do it twice but compared to the contractions it was nothing. And I was on cloud 9 after lol

Contractions omg omg they hurt so bad everybody says breath through them but fuck that lol I can't handle it I was holdin my breath lol I'm weird and epidurals their the best but if you don't push the button enough when it comes time to push your gonna feel everything but birth is an awesome experience I'll do it like five more times lol
