Hi, anyone went through natural delivery without taking epidural? I am not taking epidural but open to laughing gas and injection in thigh as the 2 options for pain relief. Mind to share how the contractions feel like? This is my first pregnancy and I can take mentration pain but not needle pain.

I did it halfway only ... lol Mine ended up in emergency c-sec as my cervix was dilated 4cm when I went through the contractions for more than a day in the delivery suite. Contractions comes and goes in less than 5 mins and the intensity increases closing to the different stages of labour. To me, I managed to hold the whole day with laughing gas and I'm proud of myself. Haha. It really depends on your pain tolerance level.

thanks for sharing! Will physco myself that there's no other alternative pain relief option so that I wouldn't ask for epidural and persist on without epidural. :)
