fond memories of gas and air

[beansontoast]

just had a flash back reading the 'was childbirth the most painful...' thread.

my first hour or so of labour was hilarious,i couldnt believe my luck..chuckling to myself now when i think about it.
i was laughing so much that i couldnt even speak to say how great it was ..and then the next contraction would come and id be away with the fairies again.fantastic.

...not much to laugh about as time went on though.ahhh but the memories

pruni, i thought it was utter rubbish with my 1st labour - just made me feel queasy and out of it - didn't get any of the "happy" - maybe it would work better for you another time.

God, yes, it's GREAT. Pity about the pain though. Just like smoking dope without the munchies. I have very fond memories. With dd, after a painful contracion, my dh said 'is there anything I can do?' and I said 'Yes, sing, Bobby, SING'. His face!!!!! I laughed and laughed, til the next contraction.
