Induction no epidural stories?

Question

Looking for positive induction stories with no epidural! Is it possible? How did you do it?

Answer

I was induced and hand no pain medication or epidural. Definitely do able, just have a good mind set that you can do it and take each contraction as one step closer.

Answer

I’ve had it done and it was very painful. I had a premature baby though and my body wasn’t ready to have him so they said it was a lot worse because I was only 32 weeks but no choice so it was a 14 hour induction and I think 45 minutes of pushing. I was ready to give up but the one nurse was so good and kept me going

Answer

I had my induction two weeks ago. It wasn’t the medication one it was the one with the catheter forgot what’s it’s called. I have to say it wasn’t that bad. My contractions were okay not that painful lol. They had to leave the catheter in for 8 hours and they popped my water and one hour later I had my baby. I think it really depends on your pregnancy like they say every pregnancy is different. You can do this. Just breathe thru every contractions.

Answer

My last pregnancy led to an induction due to high BP at exactly 38 weeks. My birth plan always was going to be drug free. I checked into the hospital around 5pm, and they started me on pitocin at around 8:30pm and I had my daughter at 12:24am.  Very fast birth, it’s 100% possible to have that drug free birth experience with being induced. The contractions were manageable but then transition around 7cm happened and not going to lie it was intense I wanted the epidural so bad I even begged but it happened so fast, I was a 8 and already felt the urge to push. Then the nurse checked me and I was a 9 and was pushing I couldn’t help it then I was a 10 just like that and the pushing felt sooooo much better. Pushing against the pain was a relief and way more bearable. I didn’t find it to hurt as bad as the contractions. Overall it went really well. Pregnant and due any day now and don’t need to be induced this time but I plan to birth without an epidural again.

Answer

I’ve had two inductions with no epi the second one was definitely harder than the first although i did have IV pain medication. I’m going for my third induction on the 28th although i do not want an epi i will consider it if contractions are anything like my last birth 😩

Answer

It’s doable (barely for me). My epidural failed though, so I didn’t have any say in the matter. My advice would be do a lot of research on other pain relief methods, and don’t let the pain get ahead of you. Focus is key!

Answer

Ask for misoprostil ..it may take u 20 hours before u feel anything but I loved tmit..I had 2 previous inductions ...one w pitocin n one w cervadil ..liking the cervadil one more..miso allows u to be on the mi IRS for only 2 hours n then walk around for 2 hrs.U can eat too.Sometimes they ll break your water.When my water broke I was at 19 hrs of only mild cramps n I went from 1 to 6 in 25 min.I did get an epidural but it was shit off..I wish I never got it ..if u read any of my posts about it the tech shot me too high n it caused decels in mine n Babys heart rate.I dodnt believe I could be blessed w a fast labor.I was ( way different from my fkrst which was 26 w pitocin n the second was 15 ).In 90 min from water breaking n contractions started I was pushing
