Just exploring my options (Epidural)

I really want to do an all natural water birth. It is something I have set my mind to due to personal beliefs and just the mere fact that I am deathly afraid of needles (Have had to be strapped down just to get block/shot done). With that being said, if I know I can no longer fight the pain of contractions and do decide to get an epidural, what an I to suspect in terms of pain/comfort?

You don't even feel it. At all. Like, nothing. Zilch. Nada. I didn't feel mine and it worked wonders.
