Anyone ever have that thing up there?! OMG I don't ever want to feel it again, I couldn't move my legs just because I didn't want to feel it move. I'm probably just being a baby, I'm going to have a hard time during labor lol

I have never had one, but it is one of my great fears about labor/ c-section.

I had one briefly and it was not as bad as I thought and when I couldn't 'go' I was grateful that they used it!

For me the insertion was by far the worst, but it's still no fun any way you look at it!

I hated that thing!!! I'm thinking about going epi-free next time because I hated the catheter so much.

I was TERRIFIED of it and it actually was nothing! I had to have an emergency c-section so I had no choice. They put it in after the epi, so I obviously didn't feel it go in. I was so afraid when the nurse said it was time for it to come out but honestly it felt like pulling a tampon out...and that was it! It'll be fine if you have to have one.

I never have had one even with my epidural with Jacob. Although I have put a few in and I know they are uncomfortable.

That thing might have been my worst experience during labor. It took the dang nurse 4 times to get it in, and the 4th try she finally had another nurse come help her. It was really humiliating.

Both my kids were c-sections and with Mckaylee they did it right there...hurt like a **********. With Russell they just wheeled it to the surgery room and had him put it in after the epi. Same when I had my reduction.

I had one when I had the epidural. It didn't bother me till after I had my daughter and I was in recovery. I told the nurse to take it out already, I can pee on my own!

I guess I never peed during L&D, or at least I didn't within the six hours leading up to delivery. So anyway, they put one in after I gave birth because I couldn't go pee. The epi was still working, so I didn't feel anything, but I saw how much came out...I guess I broke a record at the hospital and filled like 2 liters at one time!! So that's like two large soda bottles!

I had to have a catheter before.
The insertion is by far the worst part. Another thing that annoyed me, was the urge to pee ![]() ![]() -------------------- ![]() |
