Yes, you are so on point. Every birth is different and scpaiel! With my first I knew I wanted an epidural for sure and didn’t want the pain or to even discuss trying without. I knew what I wanted, I went in with a plan, and thankfull for me it all went quite well I got my epidural (super strong, too strong really all the way up to my neck!), and I didn’t go through a lot of excruciation pain in labor. For this second pregnancy, though, I’m reseraching options and I think I want to try having a different experience especially based on the fact that I had a fairly easy labor and delivery, I think I want to try it au natural and have a doula to help. I am meeting a possible doula tomorrow! I’m excited for this new experience, and I am so happy that we get to have so many different options available. We are truly blessed to live in a time where all this is possible.
