Jen & Evon, nothing to worry.. There is no pain if u ask for epidural early,.. It is just abit uncomfortable as need to lie in bed most times... Hubby is the one who is bored.. But he has his iPad.. Me too, I just watch HK tvb drama..

. actually, I was more worried for the unborn bb.. Coz all strapped to machine n bb's heartbeats were monitored every second... If bb's heartbeat dropped, means bb is in distress, need emergency c section.. If not, slowly wait... I was looking at the ctg monitor every 5-10mins.. So worried of bb until I can't sleep,! Only after belle is Born then I can sleep at ease...
Btw, Once on epi, cannot get off bed, a urine bag will be attached to drain urine all the time...
So, look forward to the arrival of your precious bb... Is a happy occasion.. It does not matter how long or short the labour / induce process is.. End of the day, when u see your bb, everything is worth it!
Jen, after sterilied, it is good only for 24hrs before you need to re sterilise again... No matter is pump or bottles... Coz There are germs in our air.. That is what I learnt in mrs wong's class
