Hi ladies...I hope you don't mind me migrating over here from second tri, but I have a quick question.
Did any of you ladies have a mobile epidural during labour? I would love to have a natural birth, with tens and birth pool, but am aware that things may not always be as expected, and it is my first birth, so I really have no idea of what it to come....The thought of pethadine etc making me feel sick and out of control just isn't appealing, and I've heard good things about the relief that an epi can bring, but don't fancy the full on works, with some of the things that could follow that, such as forceps etc.
So, back to my original question (after my waffling!).....Anyone had a mobile epidural and how was it? thank you
