Just met two anesthetists who confirmed I can't have a spinal or epidural, so they've offered this to me as pain relief.
They've explained what it does, that it's patient controlled and I would press it with each contraction and that it's short lasting, doesn't cross the placenta as much as pethidine etc. I just wanted to hear other people's experiences about it though. Did you find it worked for you? Were there any side effects?
TIA :)
