Induced in 4 days...Questions for experienced mamas...

Lisa

I am a first time mom, and I would love to go in to labor naturally. I am being induced because I had some complications/other things going on. Here are my questions:

1. I am keeping the epidural as an option, but I am going to try to go through without it. Did you need it because of the more intense pain?

2. Does induction/pitocin affect the breast milk supply at all? I plan to try my hardest.

3. I am strep B positive. Do antibiotics affect milk supply/is baby drowsy and it takes longer to latch?

Thanks for any advice.
