Last time I gave birth (2008) I had my daughter naturally and only had gas & air and pethedine. I never had to have a cannula fitted but have recently seen online that some hospitals fit one as standard procedure when you go into labour "just in case" they need to give you drugs/fluid etc intravenously. Second baby is due in 4 weeks so just curious as to others more recent experiences.
