Friday July 13..... Miserable IST failure yesterday

Beckster, are you getting an epidural?

I'm not sure. I haven't really given it any thought. Did your wife?

I thought there were risks involved with it.

My wife got it and couldn't be happier about it. She got it at 12:30AM when she was 3cm dialated. She was having some painful contractions. Never felt pain again, even during birth. She had the epidural in for almost 13 hours.

About 4AM, we were sleeping, and they brought in some lady who didn't get an epidural, the noise and pain echoed through the walls and woke us up. My wife asked the nurse about it, worried that the lady also had an epidural. She did not. My wife was happy.

I HIGHLY recommend you get one.
