Hello!  I have just started the research into natural birth.  Right now I have two things that are pulling me each way.

#1 - I have never been able to handle any pain medication besides Tylenol which scares me on what they may be pumping through my body.

#2 - I broke my pelvis and tail bone a year ago, I refused any pain medication besides tylenol when this happened. I'm afraid the extra pressure will put me over my pain limit.

Hopefully I will be able to get lots of helpful information from this board!

This is a great place to get information.  Have you started reading any books?  I would recommend Ina May's Guide to Childbirth.  Maybe watch "The Business of Being Born."  I don't know what effect breaking your pelvis and tailbone may have on your labor.  I would talk that over with your ob or midwife.
