I've also heard that some hospitals do restrain arms/hands (don't really understand why?). I am going to ask my OB tomorrow when we go over all the details of the procedure. For some reason the idea of being restrained really freaks me out too!
My arms were restrained. they had to do my epi twice and the meds made me shake so they strapped me down. I did not enjoy that at all...
