If you’ve experienced both!! Which did you prefer?? And why

Question

Answer

I have 7 kids (oldest is step). I’ve had early, late, on time, natural, induced, emergency section, & planned section. I never got an epidural with vaginal deliveries, because I’m stubborn and wanted to do it on my own, plus side effects, etc.
My FIRST choice would be to go 100% natural, then induction.
Concerning complications? I would opt for planned section. It was much easier than emergency section, or being in labor, then having it.

Answer

Never will I not do an epidural

Answer

I went natural with my first daughter and had complications and with my second I got the epidural and had no complications or side effects. This time around I plan to do the epidural again because it made me present while giving birth and a lot more relaxed. When I went natural I panicked, I became dehydrated, I wasn’t breathing properly because I was panicking which caused me to tear, I needed oxygen because I wasn’t breathing properly, and I didn’t enjoy giving birth at all. I want to enjoy it this time like I did last time and I want to feel more relaxed.

Answer
