[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm so sorry. Would you update us on what you decide? I'm not sure what I would do in your shoes. I think I might hire a doula in this case to help you last as long as possible before getting an epidural, if at all. What does your OB say? Can you pre-emptively take antibiotics if you get a catheter (a la how GBS positive patients do)?[/quote] Thanks to both PP for the well wishes. I will try to remember to dig up this post after I deliver (late August). I have not discussed this issue with my current OB. My first 2 pregnancies I lived in DC, but have since moved out of state. I live in a place where OB choices are limited, only 1 hospital, and no birthing centers. I have an appt on Monday and will try to discuss with the midwife. If I get any useful suggestions I'll post back. [/quote]
