I got an epidural and im thankful that I did bc I was stressing my baby out bc my contractions were soo painful and I wasnt dilating at first the epidural wasnt working and I could feel the contractions that were happening back to back but once they up my dose I fell asleep and later I went frok being 2cm dilated to 10cm!!! Bc my body was relaxed and then I was in labor and basically my contractions pushed him out I did no pushing lol and I didnt rip and my baby has a huge bobble head lol I have no idea how come I didnt rip lol and they didnt have to cut me...I def have alot of respect for the women whom didnt get epidurals bc its tough..major props !!!
Yeah defo. Least second time rnd it was much better. I seriously hope this time rnd goes just as good for u.x
It was hard to deal with but when we got preggo with the little one we were so shocked! Lol and now another baby! God is good and I think my body was made for birthing these babies.
Tht must hav been horrible tho thnkin u cldnt hav anymore children. Think thts sumfin every women dreds to be told.x
Kerosene, everyone has an opinion don't let it get to ya! I've never had an epi that's why I can't speak out for them :)
I dont feel like anyone is preeching and pushing people towards epidurals, we all are just posting our birthing experiences I dont think anyone is doing anything wrong right now. This posting topic was just to let other woman know that childbirth isnt something to fear.. and that its beautiful, so please dont assume that any of these posters are preaching about epidurals, I for one like epidurals while being in labor, for the woman who can birth naturally, more power to you! :)
No, my uterus is "incompetent" but obviously it's competent enough
Thats bcos it was all ripped open from bfor lol. Suprised baby didnt walk out after tht lol. So tht doc who put his hands up ther cld hav caused u not bein able to hav anymore?x
Hell yes! I was told I could have anymore kids so I was scared of that my mom wanted me to get a csection bc of all the scarring down there but it went rather smoothly
No wonder. With no pain relief anyone would be traumatized!! See wen u fell pregnant 2nd time wer u a little scared?x
I was 17 at the time and she is 6 years my little one is 11 months. I was VERY underdeveloped down there so my body didn't produce enough of the hormones that make your joints and ligaments soft and hips widen so yeah...ouch face. It was pretty traumatic and I had PPDfrom it all and didn't want to hold my baby for about 30 minutes I was so traumatized from it. But hey, sh*t happens!
He put his hands up?? jesus! If that didnt put u of nothin wld. How old are ur babies now? I cldnt imagine how tht must hav felt i only teared a bit so nothin major thank goodness.x
I have done all natural and I will not be doing it again bit I think everyone should give a try at least once the pain doesn't last forever. This time I wanna try an epidural
*hurts like a b.itch
Wtf autocorrect
My baby was only 7 lb 1 oz BUT my hips were too narrow and didn't spread even tho I was fully dilated so my dr put his hands inside of me and shoved them apart thus tearing me up inside. I didn't tear at all on the outside it was all internal. It was aweful. But the laboring wasn't bad. With my second the laboring was 100x more painful but I only pushed 4 times and i didn't tear at all. I'm actually looking forward to it again because this is our last baby so this one is going to be very special :)
My sister had to have 3 epidurals(they administered them wrong the first two) but she was in labor 23 hrs and was in so much pain and had to get like 14 stitches .. gosh I hope mine goes smooth but they estimated my girl around 9pds at 40 weeks

Childbirth shirts.like a ***** but worth every second
People push epidurals so much these days. Its sad. Your body was made to go through labor and delivery. What if there was no epidural? Would these women never have kids then? I respect other womens choices but why preach about how every women should have them? You wouldn't like it if women who did med free were preaching about it.
That sounds awful. How big was ur baby? yeah its worth all th pain and if it was tht bad u wldnt be havin ur 3rd lol x
It took me 8 months to fully heal because they ripped in and through my urethra I had to have it stitched back together it was hell but ohhh so worth it ;)
I done it with no meds and really didnt thnk i wld hav bn able to. But i didnt thnk about it i just thot of getin baby out. Ashdub 46 stitches holly sh!t!! I had a few but nothin like that. Wher u in agony afterwards?x
My lil sis had an epidural and after delivery she threw up everywhere from it she had a bad reaction I was there when she was in labor and she was so lethargic it was unreal. Some people can do it some people can't but it's up to every woman to make her own choice but I don't promote epidurals because I've never had one. :)
I was so relaxed the doctors kept asking if I was even having contractions. No I'm not superwoman and I don't claim to be although it can be done.
