I’m pregnant with mo/di twins, and the nurse practitioner I meet with bi weekly is highly encouraging me to have an epidural placed, even if they don’t administer anesthesia, due to the fact that otherwise they’d have to put me under general anesthesia in the event of an emergency c-section. Has everyone else been given this same advice? I had my first baby without any anesthesia and I’d like to avoid it if possible for this birth as well, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to manage the pain with an epidural placed. From your experience were you able to move/adjust positions once they placed it or did they want you to stay on the bed? Being on the bed was the most painful position while i labored with my first so I’m a little terrified to be stuck there!
