I got an epi with all 3 of my labours. I demanded it with Chase because they weren't gonna give one to me because I was already 7cm dilated, so they called the doc who came and said I was 8cm, too far along, so I said "well I ain't pushing this bub out without one" and I won lol It was bliss!!
Epidural are safe for bubs I had gas and HATED it. It made me want to vomit. I wouldn't touch pethidine because it's not safe for bubs.
I didn't have any unnecessary intervention, I wasn't cut and I could feel the urge to push fine, it was just painless.
I had an epi with number one, I also had episiotomy, and I recovered quicker than with my second birth no pain relief. I would have considered it for number 2 except I had her in less than 2 hours. Dont' dismiss anything, just read up on it. I also tried gas and it did make me sick. Disgusting!
I would like to go drug free this time as well, but again, I will go in with open mind, because if I do need pain relief, I dont' want to feel bad that I have it. xo
