Pain Relief

What pain relief did you have during labor?

What pain relief did you have during labor and did it work for you????
I had morphine it worked for me, but then again my labor was only an hour and a half so i didn't really get to feel much pain. My baby was out before I knew it. )

First son - Gas and Air. It was pretty painful, but not horrific or anything, but I had been at hospital for 2 hours and I had no idea what was in store, I thought I was going to be in labor for another 24 hours. I was asking for the epidural, but the anesthesiologist wasn't available so I never ended up getting one, which didn't really matter anyway because my son was born 3 hours after arriving at hospital.
Second son was laying very low towards my spine, so I had really bad back labor. I had the epidural which only partly worked on my left side, so I could still feel everything on my right side, and gas and air.
The epidural was obviously not very strong at all because I was able to walk an hour after giving birth.
