HELP - EPIDURAL VS NATURAL

Okay, I am having the hardest time making a decision.

I want an epidural because I am scared of the pain that comes with labor, contractions, and the actual delivery.

But I also want to do it natural because of some cons on getting an epidural.

Please share your natural birth stories down below and if you wished you would have gotten an epidural!

Was labor and contractions as bad as people say?

Did it hurt delivering the baby?

Did you tear and feel it?
