How did your first and second compare? Length of labor, pushing, pain first time vs. second time? I had a great experience the first time around and am starting to think about the next time around. I can only hope it goes as well, but I wonder about how my body will deal with the pain having been through this already. Any stories would be great! Thanks.
Re: Anyone have multiple med-free childbirths?
To have one birth without epidural may be regarded as a misfortune. To have two looks like carelessness. :-)
I love Oscar.?
I did not have ANY med free births- I really wanted to, but I DID go more than 30 hard hours with out the epidural the first time...many of them on pitocin.
Are you proudda me?
aaaaaanyway- the second time, I labored in the jacuzzi for hours ( excellent for the pain) and only pushed for 4 minutes total.
I bet if you did it once you will have an even better time doing it the second time. it will probably be lots faster and easier- you can totally do it.good luck!! I can't wait to hear how it goes!
