I plan on going all natural without any meds. I've done it before, and I'm sure I could do it again.

I PLAN on having a natural unmedicated birth..... but I might take a shot of demerol jsut before pushing, like last time...unless I have to have a c-section.

Oh....EPIDURAL!! I know I couldn't do au-naturel. I am going to be induced and that pitocin is a PAIN! It really brings on the contractions fast and hard. I don't do pain meds (like demerol), just numbing meds. wink.gif

I had three different deliveries so far. My first (birthdaughter) was pit enduced and I got an episiotomy and an epi. With Nathan, I got something in the cervadil family b/c I was stuck at 4cm and I got an epi. With Gabe I was going to get an epi but was working through the pain so well that I couldn't get anything in time so he was born w/o meds. I think that for my last I'll go natural again b/c it will probably go quickly and it wasn't awful. A little more difficult until my water broke and it was time to push...but it wasn't too bad.

I would like to try to do it natural, but I have to be realistic. biggrin.gif

My last two I had to be induced with pitocin and ended up with an epidural. I am hoping it will be less painfull without pitocin and I can handle it without than epidural. But more likely than not I will get an epidural.

I am planning (hoping?) for natural with no meds but seeing as I too have had all different deliveries...

My 1st was induced with oxytocin, had an episiotomy and an epidural, they had to use forceps.

My 2nd was an emer c-sect at 27 weeks but it was done in such a way I can do VBAC.

A part of me is planning on the natural however another part of me has to be real and admit that the c-sect recovery was easier.

I guess we'll see when it happens!

I really would like to have a natural birth, but I might give in and get some pain meds, definately NOT an epidural, though.

I picked "Natural, no meds" b/c that's how I had Isabelle. HOWEVER, I always keep an open mind! tongue.gif

I was lucky. She was SO easy. Not even a 10. Now don't get me wrong, it HURT, but it wasn't "going to kill me" hurt. I couldn't believe the nurse even ASKED me if I wanted an epidural. Um, no!

edited to add: Oh and I would really like to NOT have an epeciodomy (sp?) b/c I hated that...still have pain from it.

I'm a c-section mama. My doc would still let me have a vbac if I wanted, so that's something to think about next time. Im in awe of all the ladies who delivers or have delivered without any pain medication. I'm so scared of the ring of fire that I hear about lol.

I don't remember that at all. I have a friend or two that said they had it, and my mom remembers it from my brother (and he's 20!). But that's not something I really experienced. Don't know if its everyone that gets it and I just didn't remember, or one of those "everyone is different" things. biggrin.gif Could be that she came so fast I just didn't have it for long...

I was told they felt it when the baby crowns before coming out, so if your daughter came fast then it's def possible you got lucky cool.gif

It's something I am interested in trying, but it still scares me hehe.
