....i am such a wimp and have said all along i want EVERY pain relief that the hospital can give me
BUT.......
now its not far away (birth!!) I am getting a bit worried about the pain relief - i thought epidural would be best, doesnt it numb you so you can't feel the pain? GREAT!! BUT.. i have heard that you do things, such as have a poo and not know - OMG i would be distraught if that happened to me, especially with my mum and boyfriend in the labour room with me!!! so now im not sure i want an epidural!!
also, gas and air, i have heard that you talk loads of crap and i dont want to look like a pillock shouting random crap at my mum and boyfriend - also, does it take the pain away?
im so confused and dont know what to do!!!
ALSO....do you have to 'book' your pain relief? someone told me i do, but my midwife has not mentioned anything!
