I have had 4 vaginal births and loved every one of them (well my first could have been better but the end result made me feel so awesome that it didnt matter).
Ive had one where i had a PPH and was really weak afterwards and it took a long time to recover but i still loved every minute of it.
Ive had another where i gave birth completely naturally, no gas, epidural, pethidine, not even oxygen, i just had her and i have to say that was the BEST. I also have to say that i had her with "no real pain" in contractions like has been mentioned by others. I didnt find it painful, it was intense but not painful and beleive me she came hard and fast and my last contraction was 9 minutes long with no break at all. I got up after having her and felt on top of the world. Its so natural for the body to do and so very acheivable without drugs. Something i never would have beleived. I never would have tried going totally natural by choice because i didnt think i could handle it but she had other ideas and im so glad she had me experience what i did.
Im very much looking forward to giving birth to baby # 5 in November
