[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, seeing an earlier question, my advice would be to [b]get the epidural.[/b] I was happy as a clam with mine, got it fairly early in the process, and had a virtually pain-free birth. I was in good shape, though obviously that isn’t a determinative factor, but delivered very quickly. I was sitting up and reading until it was really time to get going. I respect that others think certain types of movement/sensation is important…but honestly, pain can also be exhausting. My MIL judged the crap out of my for using an epidural, so I also get some of the pressure folks feel, but I’m pregnant with our second now and will be 100% asking for the epidural as soon as they’ll give it to me. Just my two cents given you asked. [/quote] Agree especially if you’re far enough along in labor. Getting some sleep before pushing made a huge difference in my ability to focus. [/quote]
