Hey all,
I'm just trying to get my head round the whole labour thing again after a rather traumatic first one when the gas and air was taken off me during the pushing stage so I was left with no pain relief for a 3rd degree tear and forceps delivery.
I think at the time it was to make sure I was pushing through my contractions rather than breathing through them with the gas and air because dd was stuck. BUT what 'normally' happens with gas and air and pushing? I really want a water birth but if they're going to take the gas and air off me I'd rather be out of the pool so I'm allowed pethadine.
Any thoughts/experiences please....
Thank you!
Xx
