Man my most nervous part bout delivery is the needle they put in your hand & my epidural first time the needle in my hand hurt more than anything but last time they gave me something to numb it so it doesn't hurt as bad . i didn't feel nothing my first two epidurals but I still worry ugh what if I feel something this time . 😕😕😟😓
@adriennelea the three the nurses did hurt so freaking bad. Only one actually worked, one my BP spiked and my vein blew and the other one started puffing. The two the specialist did, didn't hurt and lasted longer. I've had mine for awhile, it's going to crap out soon and I'm dreading it. Lol
@halifax6 yea nurses always did mine probably the issue lol
The iv in the hand aint no joke they poked me 3 times in each hand trying to find a spot than the lady says oops I messed up here we go again, but sleeping with it is painful I can't stand it I'm ready to get mines out
For the IV ask for a specialist! I had two placed in the last two weeks by nursed and OUCH. And two placed by a specialist, not sure their real title, but they numb your vein first and it doesn't hurt. Just be demanding. :]
The IV in the hand hurt really bad for me too because I have boney hands😂
@breederofboyz lol I try not to that's the only thing I get anxious thinking bout when j do once in a while tho lol ik the whole day n night before delivery that's what I was always nervous about
The more you think about WHAT IF the more WHAT IF thoughts you will have. Think positive mama no one knows what will happen tomorrow so just enjoy today 😄

Me and my princess first time getting epidural and I’m numb from legs is this normal i can’t walk good yet
Will your Mom be in the delivery room?
My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
Any first time mom's that already had their baby? Did you get an epidural or go natural? I don't want an epidural but if the pain is too much for me I feel like ima have to but I prefer to do it without the epidural.
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
@ashleybrunais98 ugh needles didn't bug me my first & second pregnancy they haven't been taking as much blood this time it seems like so I'm not used to it last time I had a normal iv in my arm I thought it was very uncomfortable ugh
