Five Generations – Part 3

Did you have any pain relief during childbirth?

Great Nan (mother of 3)

I only had gas & air with my last baby. There weren’t really any pain relief options before that. If there were I would have definitely taken them

Nan (mother of 4)

I had gas & air with them all and an epidural with my last baby. If i’d had more pain relief options I would have taken them

Mum (mother of 2)

I had gas & air and pethidine with Erica before having an emergency caesarean. I had a planned caesarean with my second baby.

Me (mother of 1)

I had a planned caesarean so no pain relief other than what they give you to have your caesarean.
