stupid question I am sure LOL

[Rach75]

ok this could possibly be classed as the most dumbest stupidest question but well I have never thought of it before

was reading a friends birth story she had a epidural, ok didn't think anything of it till she was telling me about how long she had cathetor in ... ok here comes the stupid part.........

how do you give birth with a cathetor in does it go in a different part of your hoo haa than where bubs come out seriously nobody is allowed to laugh I feel like a complete dumb butt not knowing this

[alioops]

Yes hun the catheter goes up the urethra (where u pee from) and the baby comes out the vagina (where you put a tampon). you can do damage if you push too hard with it in so i would recommend to avoid an epi for as long as possible.

No such thing as a stupid question Rach how else do we learn? I don't need to answer it for you though, Ali has done that

[Rach75]

thanks girls I feel like a complete nut it came to me while I was doing my shopping I was like

[jenjams]

Hmm Rach- I never thought of that. I had an epi and did not even think about the cathetar then I was pushing.
