The great epidural debate!

Sommer

How many mommies have had or plan on having a natural birth? I feel very in-between on what I should do. I don’t want any risks out of it, but I’ve heard it’s extremely helpful with the epidural and puts less strain on baby to come out.

My DH (dear husband) thinks I should because he doesn’t think anyone could handle/endure the pain of natural birth. Anyone who knows me would know how much of a “challenge accepted” type of girl I am so that just makes me want to prove to myself and all women alike that we can and are built to handle/endure the pain of natural child birth.

Although I’ve struggled with a high risk pregnancy, I’m not sure how it would go. Not even my doctor wants to discuss birthing plans at 20 weeks because most of the time they’re unrealistic and unachievable... You never know what will happen when it’s time for delivery.

Dear husband has a big head too. 😂 love him dearly.

Any stories shared would be so much appreciated!
