I did and planned for it cuz I didn't want to endure much pain lol. It was great. I got a chance to relax and take in the moments. I got a chance to focus on breathing n looking into my husbands eyes because that mattered to me while I was pushing. I would do it again.

I wouldn't. And I didn't. But I also labored very quickly

I got it because I got induced, once you get Pitocin it's makes the contractions ten times worst, so I don't know how a un induced birth feels like, it's totally up to you and how you feel.

I have a high pain tolerance but the epidural just made things easier for me to relax

@babyboy1117, the round ligament pain doesn't really bother me.. so idk 😂

I haven't had a period in 5 years.. I had birth control which made them go away, and when we decided to try for a baby I literally bled for a day and then got pregnant.. so I don't really know about period cramps 😂

I'd like to believe I can do it without the epidural, but round ligament pain has really hit now and it's making me question my pain tolerance... But I'm also very stubborn so I might try to hold out for as long as I can and then with my luck by the time I cave in it'll be too late! Lol

It really depends on your pain tolerance. I couldn't even stand period cramps but was able to do 32 hours of labor without getting pain meds or the epidural. It's do able if you believe in yourself.
