I've had 3. No issues. I only had my 3rd for an hr and a half from him starting for process of putting it in to them taking it out after birth. I went from 5 to 10 in 30 mins. It sped up my labor significantly.

I've had 2 with no issues.

To be honest it hurt me like hell and I’m usually not afraid of needles but omg, I was sooo happy and relieved afterwards. It’s definitely worth it.

OR pep talk not to get it cause you’re a bad ass and you can do it!!!

Get it, I have had three and no back problems from it. The numbing needle is a little pinch and then the other part is just uncomfortable pressure. Not that bad at all. The hardest part for me was trying to keep still during contractions because I waited until they were pretty horrible.

Tbh its scary, but you will be much more comfortable. Its 10 minutes of scary that will pay off for hours of finally getting to hopefully relax, just trust your doctors and everything will turn out just fine! You got this!

I had zero issues with the epidural either time. Getting it was fine. It allowed me to nap before I met my babies. It also seemed to help me dilate quicker because I was relaxed. Then pushing worked great too. I have no back issues to this day. I would highly recommend it. You get to meet your baby soon! Best of luck!

Im not good at pep talks but omg get it it help with the pain it worth it i have gotten it 3 times and i am fine.

First time?
