I think CTG is important and necessary during delivery time as it's function to monitor your baby's heart rate in response to your contraction. If there is any abnormality of heart rate or baby is in distress, it can be know immediately by your doctor to decide whether to continue normal delivery or for emergency cesarean section. It's an useful tool to monitor your baby's condition for timely life saving decision!
Hi. I'm not sure about ctg, I'm not a fan either. 😂 But for epidural it is not necessary for me, yes it hurts but as long it's for the sake of a bundle of joy then I'm fine without it. 😁
