Advice!! Unplanned natural birth!

Je
So they just started me on pitocin and informed me that I can't have an epidural due to my platelets being too low. I had an epidural with my first and was expecting to do the same this time. I'm on my 3rd day here as I'm being induced at 37 weeks for preeclampsia, anemia and gestational diabetes. It took this long just to get my cervix ripened. Any advice on ways to make it easier with a natural birth?
