As for Matte, he has a different point of view.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Am I partial to no epidural? Yes,&#8221; he confessed. &#8220;Why? Because I&#8217;m a hypochondriac. I&#8217;m afraid of drugs. My mom didn&#8217;t use an epidural. I meet women all the time who didn&#8217;t choose to use an epidural.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Shay, on the other hand, isn&#8217;t backing down with her position.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"58.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"7\">\n<p>&#8220;Would you get a root canal without any drugs?&#8221; she asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You love that analogy. Who gave you the root canal analogy?&#8221; Matte replied. &#8220;A root canal is not comparable because you&#8217;re not born to go through a root canal. As a woman, your body is genetically engineered to give birth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"photo-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"34.233404710921\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-photo-text\" readability=\"12.192719486081\">\n<p>While it doesn&#8217;t look like the couple is going to agree on this issue, things may change when Shay pulls out a magic handbag filled with some surprising items.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are going to wear this,&#8221; Shay teased.

Everyone waits for the right time to make the announcement and for me it wasn&#8217;t until I couldn&#8217;t hide it anymore and was tired of wearing oversized sweatshirts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She continued, &#8220;We&#8217;re beyond excited and looking forward to starting a family. I&#8217;ve learned so much about myself and parenthood over the past 6 months, and feel like I haven&#8217;t even scratched the surface!
