Are you nervous about labor pain and what to learn more about epidurals? Or maybe you’re really wanting to give birth unmedicated, but someone tells you, “You don’t get a trophy for natural birth…” and now you’re questioning it.
In this episode, we’ll talk all about epidurals and their impact on childbirth including:
- What an epidural is and what to expect during the procedure…
- Understanding the risks and benefits of an epidural…
- How do epidurals affect labor progress or do epidurals slow down labor…
- The effects epidurals can have on newborns and breastfeeding...
- … and so much more!
As you’re deciding whether to choose an epidural during labor or not, it’s important to know the risks and benefits to you and your baby, so you can make an informed decision and plan ahead for your pain management plan.
I encourage you to explore your options, figure out what your values and goals are for your birth, communicate with your healthcare providers, and seek support for whatever it is you decide to choose!
