Shout out to anyone who’s ever been in labor. I was so motivated mentally and physically for no epidural but baby had her own plans. I’m still currently in labor after 19 hours of 2-3 min apart full on contractions. Only to be dislates to a 4 and let me tell you I’ve been walking and bouncing. I needed sleep, I still need food lol but they won’t let me. But the epidural did not hurt and I’m officially relaxed.

To you natural birth mamas I salute you and to those who chose the epidural you are brave too! I cried and felt like a failure while getting it but I realized my husband needed sleep too! And he wasn’t going to rest until i was. There’s so many reasons you chose the epidural and no matter why you are strong too!
