Thanks for all of your replies, its great having my little girl finally after the long wait during pregnancy. I think I would have the water blisters again if I had pain in my back as bad as it was during labour. They are something new that hospitals have introduced to try and alleviate some of the pain during labour. The pain of them going in is really bad but this pain does not last and once my next contraction came I noticed the difference straight away. I would not recommend getting them before a water birth though. I had mine as there was a wait for the pool but as soon as you get into water they stop working and all the pain just comes flooding back as they are not effective under water. As an alternative pain relief though if you did not want injections etc I would definately recommend trying them as they do help.
