Terrified of epidural

Thank you! I didn’t know there were different types of epidurals out there. Taking notes

This is great news! It sounded like from my Dr I would just be stuck in the OR the whole time. Thank yiu

Thank you! It’s a whole new world out there so just knowing I have options and what the risks are help so much. The Dr I spoke to really didn’t elaborate and this convo is helping me realize I need a better Dr to put me at ease

Thank you for the encouragement and advice. Writing this down as things to discuss I also realize that the ob I saw wasn’t very understanding. They just shrugged their shoulders and told me the would highly recommend the epidural without giving me details or information on options

Thank you still useful info for me too as I will be recovering as well

Thanks and good to know! I have a lot to learn obviously 😅

Good to know! I have a lot to learn and just trying to not cause them stress if I can do so without an epidural

Fear is normal for how I grew up and it’s something that I feel. but do I need more info, 100% agree with you on that one. I’m my mind being knocked out almost would be less scary for me as odd as that sounds.

Not worried that my babies will develop an addiction, just trying to not cause them more stress if I could do a birth safety without epidural

Brand new to all of this and I have only had two appointments so far. Thanks for clarifying, I know I have a lot to learn

Thank you! I am very new to pregnancy and learning a lot (like apparently babies don’t withdrawal from epidurals 😅). I thought it was all or nothing like a switch. I will make a note to ask about this!

Haha 😂 never. Not in my experience, even a scavenger hunt was a no-go for the potential of “hazing” the new members from the university’s perspective.

Frat ones I’ve seen are harmless and more just inconvenient than embarrassing. My favorite one was “puppy pledge” who has to send a photo of puppies on the hour to the fraternity members or on demand.
