just had mw come and do the birth plan, now MY BIRTH PLAN as been epidural since i found out i was pg, mainly because i'm a wuss, but also because i have a prolapsed disc which means any kind of back pain is intensified and last time with rich it was the back pain that hurt more than the actual giving birth bit, so had epidural and i had a very pleasant experience of labour.
anyway they just asked about pain relief and i said gas and air and then epi and apparnetly i wont need it,
how the eck does she know what i'm going to need, does she know i'm a wuss and hate being in pain, no lol
but i've had constant pain throughout this pg with spd and sciatica and now the backs kicking in, so likely not be able to feel my legs much over coming weeks as the disc hits the nerve, i think its ok for a mom to ask for epi.
i know i should try without and i probably will, but i always want the option that if i can then i will take it, no point puitting me in complete agony so i'm on strong painkillers and cant breast feed again after, which is what happened last time.
as you can probably tell i'm very upset over this, i got consultant on thursday after scan, to see if bubs is breach i'll discuss it with him again then.
i know i'm probably being silly but i just want whats best for bubs and mommy being into much pain after is not the mom i want bubs to meet
