Both my labors were too fast to get any pain medication. I really respect you ladies for going into birth so informed and prepared. My second birth was all I prayed for. He just turned 3 yesterday, and I still relive his birth regularly. One of the most powerful, important, and beautiful things I've been blessed to do. I remember being so empowered afterwards and not able to sleep because of all the adrenaline.
