I should have added that I did also manage just with gas through labour, and Hudson was monitored constantly through the labour with no signs of fetal distress and born with a great Apgar (9 I think), and the perfect shaped head like FionaJill said lol! So it didn't cause any probs with his health, just unpleasant for me. But as others have said, a healthy bubs is the main thing, so it ain't all bad LOL!

And I did have pretty bad lower back pain late in pregnancy, although don't know if this was because he was posterior.
