DELIVERY QUESTION - anyone deliver without an epidural???

Oh ok, I get it. I suppose if they could be sure of getting a perfect spinal first try, they would just do that, but they need to go for what they know will work right away. Thanks

FYI: For any ladies who have this same question I had.... I was able to successfully deliver my twins vaginally without an epidural. They both ended up head down and so my OB said it was fine for me to labor without having the epidural (didn't have the port placed either). Everything went smoothly, no complications, both twins were born without any issues! (Other than pain;):-P)

Twin B was delivered 6 minutes after Twin A! The docs had an ultrasound in the delivery room to ensure that twin B did not flip back to breech after Twin A came out. They did have to rupture membranes for twin B after twin A came out to ensure a fast transition.
