What really helped you in labour?

Having hubby rub the base of my back helped me :thumbup:

I tried my TENS machine briefly but found that too distracting, same with the G&A.

Pethidine also hindered more than helped me, but I think that was just because I was too far gone when they gave it me (I was 7cm when I arrived at hospital, and pushing within an hour or so of that).

It didn't seem half as bad to me once I was pushing.
