well, for those of you who read this and care, I've made an important decision about giving birth. I'm gonna do it. Yup in September. oh wait, you already knew that. For real I decided I am going to go all natural. no Epidural. I never wanted one anyway, but I had never met anyone who had given birth without one (aside from my mom who gave birth when the dinasours walked the earth... oh wait, that means i'm old....) so uh.. anyway. Last weekend I met a woman who is 30, and gave birth to two children without one. I was so excited. She talked about all sorts of things no one had ever talked to me about. She informed me that my DR doesn't do Episiotomies, which is a relief because I heard healing from those is worse than tearing. anyway... so the main reason they give epidurals is because you can't push after getting an episiotomy. So yah, to make a long story short.. I'm going all natural. Good thing I have a high pain tolerance, cuz I know it's gonna hurt like the dickens. Anyway, that was my little tid bit of TMI for you...
