I am pregnant with my third child. I have talked to my husband, but he says that I'm the one who has to feel it, so I should make the desicion. With my first and second I got an epidural. With my first my labor was 23 hours, so I'm glad I got it and got some sleep, but with my second I was induced, and it didn't numb everything in enough time. After that, I was drowsy, not from the birth, from the epidural. Now we have a baby due at the end of March, and I am thinking of not getting an epidural, and go natural. Has anyone else used an epidural for your first and not for your next? I think I can make it through the pain, because I know what the reward is in the end. But I was wanting some advice from women that have tried this before. And have anyone tried it and not been able to deal with the pain, and ended up getting an epidural? Thanks to everyone!!
