Tara,

Thsnks heaps for your reply, it was really helpful! That sucks about your previous husband I'm glad I have a husband who wouldn't do that even if it was our millionth child and he was over the whole process. I can see why he is an EX!! I definitely want to do it for myself and for my baby and no one else. I too would like to have no gas if I can stand it! I think I will opt for pain-relief if I feel I need it but I will make sure I prepare for that scenario and research pain relief options so I know whether or not I am willing to take something!

Congratulations on finding someone knew and your pregnancy, goodluck with it all!
