Epidural, Yes or No?

Soo I'm scared I'm not gonna be able to handle the pain of the birth of my baby should I get an Epidural or no? How many of you have had one or are thinking about getting it done I'm just really scared.

Sometimes you progress so fast you can not get epidural so my advice would be dont totally rely on it...i had both mine natural but i wanted epi for the first n could due to what i previosly mentioned...everything was fine but u have to get in tune and control of your body and emoteions..once i figured out that i can do that i didnt even think about epi with my second..dont plan on it  with this one either.
