I've only given birth to one child and back in 'the day' they didn't have any epidurals. i did have one with my last major surgery and had an allergic reaction to the medication. I was wild and very sick. i didn't want it to start wwith being a retired nurse but my surgeon insisted. never again. My ex DIL had one for her first child and didn't do a thing for her. But she was very young and scared to death and fought against it. |
