Homeopathy-do you think it helped you through the birth?

Hi, I took arnica with dd and healed well from epi so this time round (and after a great result turning my breech baby at 37w) I thought I'd go the whole hog and get a birthing kit from my homeopath. She explained it very clearly and gave me 3 different rememdies for three different birth 'states' Pulsatilla, chamomilla and aconite. Plus arnica.

While I'm not expecting a pain free birth by any standard (as if) I was just wondering if anyone has experience of a hospital birth with just homeopathy for relief (although I'm not ruling out gas and air but trying to avoid peth this time)??

Had a home birth with no pain relief but midwife was helping me with a little homeopathic rememdies found the really helped when I got to the final stage of pushing(was starting to panic a little), and found the rememdy she gave me at this stage really helped.

Thanks joedar, I think the panic one will be the one I'll need too!
