Women Did You Have Painkiller For Childbirth

at 16 i had my first baby. mo med, no tearing, no stiches, 6 and a half hour labour. at home 3 days later. easy was single so had a 9 year break. my next son was breach so had c-sec with epadural, hated it and swore id never do that again. home 4 days later my daughter was vag deliv, no meds, no tearing, no stiches. 4 hour labour, home same day {9 hours later} my son was vag deliv, no meds, no stiches, no tearing 45 minute labour {lucky to make it to hospital} home same day {10 hours later} having no more children because between me and my partner we have 6 children and have applyed to foster.

They thought I was over due, and so the enduced me by the Drip, I had my son normally, however...they induced me at noon on the 11th of January. The intern tried to break my water, but couldn't get it. Around 2 in the afternoon. I think I lasted with no Pain killers until about 6 oclock that night. I started Vomiting and could stop, so I pleaded for demerol and a hot water bottle, this last for about 3 hours, and I slept then I just couldn't take it anymore, I was constantly throwing up and it hurt my back worse when the labour came as I was doing it. I gave in and had the epi...I fell back to sleep until I woke after at about 2 am, I felt the baby start to crown I told the nurse and she got the doc, and 15 minutes later my son was born... So I had it pretty bad, but held in with no relief for quite a while

My water broke too, so they induced me at the hospital, then after a while everytime i had a bad contraction i would get a horrible pain my leg... so i asked them if i could have something, they gave me nubian. After i was dilated to 5 i think it was, they gave me my epidural. Thankfully it worked and i didnt feel any pain, only pressure when it was time to push

Not one in 4 times. I had my 1st one at 17 was told by the Dr. I was in labor at an appt. had her 56 minutes after getting to the hospital. No meds at all. No pains either. Sat up in bed and had Burger King right after they took her to the nursery, 2nd at 20, water broke that time, born exactly 3 years apart to the day and minute. Only difference 2nd was born in Okinawa so it was technically a day later. No meds, No pain, they tried to send me home. Not!! 3rd got to the hospital just in time was naturally numb from the waist down. Doctor didn't deliver her. Nurse did. 4th Yeah a boy. Thank God for Dr. appts. Yep doc didn't make it time for him either. He decided it would be a while and went home for dinner. But I still had to pay every one of the Drs. Lots of exercise and stretching is what I chalk it up to. Would have had more but it got to expensive.

I had three children without any pain meds.

I had pain med! I can't handle pain!

I have fibroids. So when I was pregnant with my son, the doctor wanted to take him 2 weeks before due date. So I was induced at 8 am in the morning and was suffering until 5 pm. I couldnt manage the pain of the fibroids. Finally, I yelled at the doctor so he did a C section and the baby was born at 6 pm. Second time, I was a placenta previa !!! was in the hospital for 1 month. Baby was born with C section 6 weeks before the due date. She was so small Anyway, I am very happy about both of them, no words can describe.

My first child was a very difficult birth and I didn't have any pain medications. My second child was induced due to the problems I'd had having my first child and they gave me an epidural, however, they waited too long to give it to me and he was born before it could take effect.

i had an epidural but it only worked for an hour. they kept pumping me with more but it wasnt working. by the time i had to push i felt EVERYTHING ! ugh.. painful

Well I was in labor almost all day he was my first and the doctors tried to enduce but i declined. When it was finally time I kept asking them to put me under but the doctor refused then when I kicked the doctor in the delivery room he gave me the general anetesia. He knew what was good for him or else.

Hi there ive had 6 children with my first i had epidural with my second i had something not gas cant remember what, with my third fourth and fifth just a puff of the gas and with my last nothing cuz my waters broke and 10 minutes later i had him but the real pain never realy started until i had my son then it was like being in labour all over again with the contractions you get after you give birth
