Don't tell your significant about this. She probably knows but trust me, they don't want to be told.

I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

You gotta do the epidural between 4-5 lest you miss your opportunity. Your labor could progress too quickly or your contractions could get too strong to sit still.
Ditto on this. I demanded one at 4. They wanted me to wait until 5 and I said hell no, lol. It takes effect pretty quickly in fact. Hang in there, LP! Things are progressing, which is GREAT! [emoji106]

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
