With Olivia, she came so quickly I didn't get the chance for anything more than a couple of paracetamol!

I was pretty clear that I would like gas, but when I asked for it, the midwife said "Darling, it's too late for that now......." What???!!

So I ended up doing the whole thing on a couple of painkillers adn a couple of drops of lavender oil.

Next time, I will be asking for gas: lots of it, and very early on!
