Friday QOTD

Happy Friday everyone!!

Today's question might have been asked already but it's always fun to see what new members think :). The question is do you think you will go for an epidural or try to go natural? :)

My answer is I'll try my best to go natural bc I've read overall it's better for mommy. How abt u?

Epidural for me unless for some reason I can handle the pain.

Epidural!

My mom went natural with both me and my brother, or at least that's what she tells us lol. Kudos to those who can do it! But I don't think it's for me.

Re: Friday QOTD

i will be walking into the hospital saying "i'm ready for my epidural now!!"

being an OB/GYN PA, i've done and seen enough deliveries to know that i will NOT try to be a hero!

Re: Friday QOTD

I would love to say I want a natural birth but I will probably opt for the epidural if I can't handle it (which I probably won't be able to)Chat Icon

Re: Friday QOTD

after seeing the business of being born... i'm pretty obsessed with going as natural as possible.

i'd love to do a water birth at home.

Re: Friday QOTD

I had never considered going natural much and always assumed why take the pain when you can get an epidural. Well I just watched the documentary Pregnant in America and it opened my eyes a bit. If you're interested, you can stream it on Netflix, but I'll warn you all it's kinda scary to watch!

I definitely want to go as natural as I can, meaning not getting induced and holding out as long as I can. In the end, I'm pretty sure I'll end up with an epidural!
