    ROFL I know what you mean!!! I was exactly the same, but not with Elijah. When it was almost time I was starting to talk drugs, but the support I had got me through - I had no choice at 9cms anyway LOL!!!

    This is why I do birth support now. It can be the difference between drugs and no drugs, caesar or no caesar etc. The stats are amazing. (you can see them on my birth support page).

    It is still important to talk about your feelings with pain relief, so your support person / partner will know on the day, and how far to push you if you want to avoid it. Have a 'red light' arrangement.

    New Active Birth by Janet Balaskas covers it all
