Yes, I had an epidural. No, my childbirth wasn’t pain-free
When it comes to childbirth, epidurals are something that are suppose to help the overall experience and pain level for mothers when it comes to childbirth. However sometimes there are some mothers that report just the opposite when it comes to this. This particular article offers you the insight and a more in depth look at a mother that had an epidural but still was not pain free.
Key Takeaways:
- From the moment I saw the word “pregnant” on the pee-soaked plastic stick, I knew I wanted an epidural.
- As much as my friends and family might see me as this strong, fierce woman in other parts of my life, when it comes to pain, I’m a huge wimp.
- I can run long distances and lift heavy weights, clean bloody wounds without feeling the least bit queasy, and I never hesitate to speak my mind or stand up for myself.
“Naturally the pain I felt during labor isn’t their fault, but seeing as how I was a clueless, first-time pregnant woman and they had far more experience in the business of giving birth than I, I admit I feel a bit duped.”
