They are inducing me because the baby is small he's in the 8th percentile...

I definitely plan on having an epidural! Haha... Plus it can't be that bad or else everyone would only have one baby right? Thanks for your advice I really could use it :-)

Pitocin hurts. Don't be afraid if you need the epidural. It really helps. Other than that just allow your body to do what its designed to do. You will be just fine. Good luck mama. So exciting. I still have six more months but this is baby #5 for me.
