Induction drugs make the pain way worse. I broke down and had one.

I was totally against the epidural until my contractions were 2 to 3 minutes apart and I was writhing in pain. Im in the hospital now, was induced at 7pm and its now 140am and I'm just waiting. About to take a nap but I'd just see how you handle the pain before you make a decision :)

I don't like the feeling of being numb and worried about not feeling when I need to push...
