If you had a natural Unmedicated birth how did it go for you?? I’m really against the epidural. I…

My natural birth was amazing. Hard, painful, inspiring, amazing.

I gave birth naturally twice. First and third were natural. With my second and fourth I had IV pain meds only.

And dont forget all thr side effects they dont tell u about the epidural. Never again!

@caseysmommy92 what are the side effects?

@mommy2bean got put into the wrong place. Got somethng called spinal fluid headache. Pretty much that means u dont hsve enough brain fluid and yur brains bouncing around inside yur head. I missed mu sons frst two weeks being in thr hopsital trying to fix it. How the fix it is by pumping blood from yur wrist taking a huge long needle putting it back in yur spine and patcing up thr hole. Well mine failed and had to get two done. Not fun. The pain was so bad every time i would move i would puke. I lost so much weight. I wouldnt wish that pain on anyone!

I gave birth naturally to my 3rd. I was so proud of myself and felt 1000 times better than when I had an epidural and pitocin due to getting induced with my first 2. I love it and will do it again.

All four of mine was natural no nothing with it just have to focus and think about holding your baby soon

Some side effects I’ve hear are (low blood pressure during labor, the birth of your baby can take much longer than what it should, huge headache, body discomfort during the process of being with the epidural, babies heartbeat lowers to where they make you push before you should!)

@mommy2bean,

The process of being in labor should be natural and you should know your body and when you need to move with the flow of labor. Not be stuck in a bed with no mobility, that’s no fun plus baby being stuck in one place because you can’t move. Why do that to your baby 😔

@caseysmommy92 my hell that's horrible!!! I'm so sorry that happened! @xomarylee I guess I'll just see what happens with me and if I feel I need it or not. I really have no clue what to expect at all

@xomarylee yup my baby was a nicu baby because his heart beat was low

@mommy2bean girl never again will i do that shit! It was serisly the worse pain of my life

I tried to get an epidural with both boys. With my oldest it worked on half of my body so I still felt a lot. With my second the epidural didn't take at all and as they were gunna give me a second one I had to push. It was honestly the most painful, exhausting thing I have ever experienced. With this one I would still like an epidural but my pain tolerance is EXTREMELY low.

I loved the epidural. It was life. Lol. No offense taken.

@mommy2bean, I almost died when I get my epidural 🤦🏻‍♀️

@missheatherbaby why?!

My blood pressure dropped so low that I was in beginning stages of cardiac arrest

My last child was all natural. I will be doing natural with this baby. I didn’t tear. I knew when to push and healed quicker. But that’s for me. I don’t knock anyone who gets an epidural. I did with my first two. But I hated it. Being confined to a bed. I have back problems because of it. I also just found out that it’s not FDA approved. So natural is my best bet.
