With my first I went in on my own and I got the epidural (she's 2 now) . With my second (she's a week and a half) I had to get induced and I had NO epidural!
They really do feel the same but once you hit 8cm you really start to feel the pain! I couldn't do it and caved in to the epidural ! But I couldnt get it because the guy that does the epidural was in with a women getting csection! By the time he showed up it was to late . going natural wasn't bad its just the pushing because you really feel it. With my first I just felt like I had to push so I pushed but with the second when I did it natural I could swear that I was pooping! I thought that I had pooped and I felt so embarrassed but I didn't! It was just the baby coming out lol
No. Neither. My baby is sunny side up and tilted, I'm having extreme back labor. And my doctor said he has experienced babies that are sunny side and tilted that they tend to go breech right at the end. I don't wanna c section. I'll be 39+2 days. And he thinks it would be best, just in case.
Just wondering why you are inducing at all?? Are you having a high risk pregnancy? Or are you extremely over due?
Awe. My worry just basically went away! That's awesome. Now I'm even more excited! Thanks!!♡♡♡♡♡
Your welcome. I know the last like 3 minutes of pushing I started saying I couldn't do it then my mom said she had a lot of hair (daughter) I didn't even know she was crowning so I got it back together and got her out in 2 more good strong pushes. So you just gotta have a good communicating support system and the mentality that the pain will go away. It literally disappears immediately as the baby is out. And if you tear or have to get cut there is so much going on you probably won't feel it. I tore and was so amazed by seeing my daughter that I didn't feel the dr numb me to stitch me up because he didn't have a chance to numb me to cut me before I tore.
My sister in law got the epidural and it ended up slowing her down and she had to get a c section. If that kinda eases your mind.
@Mrsrobb, thank you so much!! You have no idea how happy it makes me to just hear one person say they didn't feel much of a difference. I know it's gonna hurt like hell, it's supposed too. I'm having a baby. So I know pain will be intense, but its also normal to be in pain when you are in labor. And yes It mostly is mental. Thank u again.
Oh I don't have to have a c section, I'm just worried I'll be in labor forever with no epidural and have to get one after all that pain lol. Idk I'm just worried at the last minute I'll have to get one.
I asked my sister (went on her own with her first induced with second natural births for both) and she said she didn't feel much of a difference. And if they really are worse then this time I'm looking at easier delivery lol but just remember your techniques. I didn't do any classes or anything, just knew if every woman in my family can go natural then I can too and I did. Plus I have a high pain tolerance but it's really all mental.
My water broke at hone n since i wasnt contraction at the hospital they gave me pitocin n they kept raising the dose n after about 2 hours i had to have the epidural because the contractions hurt
How come you have to have a c section if you don't mind me asking. Sorry I'm just worried about one
My doctor just said contractions are worse with pitocin if you do natural, because you are forcing your body into labor.. so your contractions are forced on not natural
Haha I know!! I'm so excited, nervous, and scared at the same time. It's overwhelming! !
I was induced and had a natural delivery with my first. Idk what ppl mean by the pain is worse with it but I did it natural.
Sounds like labor might just start on its own!!! So exciting!
And have to have a c section****
I got a membrane sweep yesterday and since then I've been having contractions and cramps but they aren't too close together. Everytime I get one though I feel like I need to push, kinda like I have to poop, but I cant (sry tmi).... I'm hoping I go into labor all on my own before next Tuesday. I'm also afraid of being in labor, no epidural getting so far aren't having to have a rented c section...
I went in the night before i had to get induced. Luckily i started contracting on my own . but they started the pitocon... Then few hours later broke my water ... 12hrs later had a c section
I wish I was that brave but I remember exactly how those contractions felt and I am all for epidural lol
Lol. Thanks. I'm hoping I can make it. I believe in myself. I am in no way against the epidural and I'm not scared to say I need it if all else fails. I just have to remember my techniques I've learned.
Lol you are brave in my eyes! I couldn't do it!
Oh man....lol. I'm scared
