Pain relief

What was the best pain relief for you in your experienced labour???

I did end up with a emergency c section in the end, they kept me waiting to see if I would progress but I never progressed for ages which endangered my babies life. As they didn't give me a c section sooner xx

Oh really i am thinking about   just getting gas until i was in alot of pain!
Oh no thats horrible 39 hrs.... i thought they do a c section after 27 hours?

[cardifffirsttimemum]

Epidural was the best for me tried gas an air which did nothing for me so went straight for epidural after being in active labour for 39 hours with no progression xx

Epidural! They used a vacuum on my sons head and u don't feel the vacuum at all.

I had the epidural an at the last hour i dilated from being a 4 to a 10 but started to feel a lil bit of contractions in my butt and the urge to push

[Audriekate]

Oh ok thanks  ladies im just worried i wont be able to push thats all! Ftm lol

I had an epidural with all 3 of my kids and never had to use the vacuum. Doctors will tell you when to push and sometimes you can feel the urge to push it just depends.

[Audriekate]

But doesnt the epidural make you not feel like pushing? What if they need to use the vaccum

I tried IV meds first and they gave me no pain relief at all. The epidural was by far the best pain relief.
