I don't really know what a catheter is but it sounds horrific. I feel that it must surely sting and weigh you down, plus wont everyone be able to see my wee?
Anyway I'm terrified of having a catheter put in, so that means I can't have an epidural, doesn't it?
Am I being ridiculous? Should it be enough to put me off?
I due early in February so need to start thinking seriously about my option.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
