[quote=Anonymous]I am planning to attempt a drug-free delivery, and while my doctor says they are supportive of my plans, the hospital would require me to have an IV when I'm admitted for delivery - even if the IV is just running a saline solution into me. For some reason, this freaks me out. The thought of looking down and seeing a needle in my arm during labor makes me uneasy. I realize this must be a pretty standard policy in most hospitals - can anyone tell me what your experience was like having an IV during labor? Am I making a big deal out of nothing? [/quote]
