Epi !! On the fence

Janette
I am on the fence about an epidural XD I labored with my first naturally for 32 hours but ended up needing an epi so as not to swell too much my son was stuck. It really wasn't that bad I mean painful yes but I could do it again. I had an epi for the last two hours and it was great. I have been planning on taking a wait and see aproach. I am mostly worried about tearing and needing stitches with out an epi :/ I mean will I be missing a wonderful surge of hormones if I don't go naturally? Have any moms done both? What was your experience? Thanks!
