I'm Currently Feeling: | I have had epidurals with all 3 of my children and to be honest i only felt the head crowning on my 3rd with my son. My 2 daughters before i never really felt much because it was topped up too much and had to be assisted with ventouse delivery where as with my son it had started to wear off so i had the sensation to push and felt him crowning but without the intense pain that comes with it. Much more enjoyable birth. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I had a full epidural and felt absolutely nothing. They had to tell me when to push.
But I hear they have a 'walking' or mobile epidural now that's a lot better and where it gives you some sensation. But I have no experience with that. | | | | Status: Offline
