@courtney.welsh, yes I will ask them as well because I honestly want to avoid it 😬 I'm already being induced which i was against at first but seeing that I need to be induced there's nothing I can do about that

There are other pain management options! If you don't want the epidural, I would definitely research what else you can have.

@thecreatress its really not that bad.

@juliaschade41, I was totally trying to avoid the epi too 😭 ugh

Yeah I’ll be 41 weeks tomorrow and he dr doesn’t want me going over that because “risks” go up and what not. I want him to come naturally but that doesn’t look like it’s happening 🙃 especially since ive been in inactive pre labor for over a week. I reallllllly am worried about the extra pain level and possibility of a c section especially since I had one already (non emergency)

Being induced wasn't as dramatic as some people say it is. Yes the contractions are worse but that's what the epidural is for....after that its fine. I had a very smooth induction and didn't have a c section.
