[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I almost did this but it wasn't on purpose. I came in and was already 6 cm and by the time I got my epi I was 8 cm (within an hour of coming in) I probably could have pushed much earlier but it was during a baby boom and nurses were all over the place and by the time my doctor came in for me to push she stated "oh your bladder is about to burst" I had been given two bags of fluid and they never cleared my bladder. she quickly emptied it and then I pushed three times and the baby was out. I did have internal tearing in my uthera but I don't know if that was from labor or from them urgently draining my bladder. This time I might try to go natural but just because I only labor for 3-4 hours and this will be my third.[/quote] Yes, the tearing in your urethra was probably from the frantic cath attempt. Sad that had to happen like that. Third baby with a 3-4 hour labor you could definitely do it without epi if you wanted. :wink: [/quote]
