first pregnancy and scared

I'm so nervous. I need advice on what to do while I'm in labor. While getting the epidural does it hurt? I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow. I'm having a girl. Her due date is November 24.

The epidural typically will last the whole process and they give you a little button that you can press to give you more of the meds.

No getting the epidural didn't hurt it was just a slight sting when they give you the numbing shot and then pressure when they give you the actual epidural
