I didn't...I'm really sad about it...I
wanted too but it was just to much pain
for me, lol. I ended up taking the
epidural right away. I'm not sure if I
would have been able to handle it better
and go natural if it didn't progress so
fast.
But it was pretty good, I got to the
hospital around 4-4:30 and was 7 cm and by
10 to 8 I was fully dilated. I pushed for
2 hours and then the babies heart rate
started to dip a bit so they used the
vaccume to help speed things along.

Girl she's precious!!! I'm loving the
fit!!
I swear she defines chubby cheeks!!!
I'm glad everyone is having such large
babies!! Maybe it'll pass on to me!! I'm
cramming myself with folic acid to make
her grow! And my prenatal increases birth
weight.....Maybe I should slow down!!
Congratualtions!!!
Ps...If you don't mind me asking...Did
that have to perform and episiotomy or did
everything go fine? That's just one of
the reasons why going natural is making me
nervous.

Omg!!! She is soooo cute!!! I got tears
in my eyes just lookin' at the pics! I'm
so happy for you!!!
Oh...Don't feel bad about not going
natural. Most women opt to get the
epidural and there's no shame in not
liking pain! You obviously did a great
job!!! Congrats!!!

i did have to have an episiotomy I tore
into my rectal spynxter (sp?) and they
said it was a third-degree rip (which the
nurse told me today is actually pretty
bad) but I don't really notice it too
much. I am pretty swollen and I notice
that more. But it is a tolerable
pain...Lol.

Is the "epidural" the injection that they
put in ur spine? If so, is it painfull
when they put it? Do u feel it? Because
ive seen some pictures of it and the

Yeah the epidural is the spinal one. It
didn't hurt at all, the only thing that I
felt was the needle that numbs you, but I
was in so much pain with everything else
that I really didn't care, lol. I am not
sure of the size of the needle I was
facing the other direction. Lol. I was
like you and totally didn't want it and
the idea of a needle in my spine totally
put me off, but it wasn't as bad as I
thought.

Does it really work? (the epidural) do u
feel less pain or what? Or does it take
away the entire pain. Does it make labor
better with the epidural?

I was in sooo much pain and it took it all
away except for the pressure (which isn't
really pain, just really uncomfortable)
and I had him come give me another dose to
help get rid of that...So by the time she
actually made her entrance I couldn't
really too much, and there was no pain.
It was really great.
