Pain scale! Place your numbers ladies 😬😂

Between 8 and 9 drug free

Before epidural: 7/8. After: 0-1!!!!!! Loved my epidural :)

Easily a 9 once you get to 9-10cm. I would rate it as a 10 except that your body won't do you the luxury of going unconscious! Lol

I was induced and I'd say 4-6 with an occasional 7 before the pitocin was started (11 hrs and 5cm/6cm in)... After breaking my water, upping pitocin a lot and a failed epidural it was definitely 8-10.

When my epidural stopped working at 10 cm I would say it was a solid 9. Once I had a spinal for my emergency csection I fell asleep in the OR from my body just being done. 🤪

My back labor with my first was definitely a 9... on the verge of a 10 😂

Before the epidural at 8 cm dilated - I was a 9 and wanted to be a 10, FOR SURE. After the epidural - I was a 2. Not really pain just a ton of pressure. Loved my epidural.

8 before epidural and maybe 2 after

10...literally I passed out 3 times. Induced, back to back contractions and no pain relief. Plus she was almost 10 pounds at birth. Due with #2 in a month, clearly the pain didn’t deter me 😝.

My first birth was unmedicated and was a 4-5 at most. I don't describe it has painful, but more like super intense sensations. Look up hypnobirthing if you're curious as to how that was possible for me.
