Epidural question.

Tee • 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦❤️🙏🤞🏽

I’m currently 35 weeks and patiently waiting on my princess. My doctor asked me did i want the epidural because i know for a fact i can’t do natural labor. How bad is the epidural needle? I’m starting to freak out. I do hate needles but have had no choice but to take them since I’ve been pregnant with getting blood drawn and flu shots. But I’m reading posts and googling and freaking tf out!!!
