Anyone Had the Gas?

Where I live we don't have epidurals. We
have either the nubane shot or the gas. I
had the nubane shot with my sons birth,
and it felt like I was giving birth drunk.
Still hurt lots! So I wa thinking this
time I would try the gas. But what does
it feel like? Does it take the edge off
and help you cope, or does it actually
reduce pain levels?

I've had the gas.. It doesn't take any
pain off (from my experience), just makes
you feel high and somewhat happy. It
helps you breath, without it, you'd be
struggling. I hope I have hopefully
answered your question..
But, goodluck with your delivery.. Don't
be scared, its happening everyday..

Its a gas and air mixture, I had it on my
first and didn't like it because I had the
feeling of being drunk but as it was my
first when they told me to take it I did
but on my second he is only 2 weeks old so
I pretty much still remember everything
clear as day they told me to breathe in on
the gas and air I did try but couldn't
because it didnt go with me I wanted to be
sain minded plus my body was telling me
what to and everything happened
automatically so my oppinion is try and
keep yourself as normal with no pain
relief and your body takes over my son was
born as the midwife just about reached the
top of my stairs she didnt even have
gloves on lol but I swear I had it easy
(very painful but its the same pain as
when your high its just your to high to
actually moan about it that much) mine I
think was so easy because I had no pain
relief and knew exactly what my body was
trying to tell me

I don't know what i'd do if we didn't have
epidurals, medical question shots that
take the edge off, epidurals numb you from
the waiste down!

I did have gas (nitrous oxide) with my
first child as my only form of pain
relief.It didnt help with the pain but it
took my mind off it a bit in between the
contractions.

I hate needles with a passion and the gas
is awesome, I actually took the gas after
I had my daughter l0l cause the buggers
didnt freeze me to stitch me back up(they
didnt freeze me because they thought with
me going natural I could deal with it.).
The gas just makes you feel good
although you still feel pain it just an
out of space
expierence....................Not really a
pain relief! Try it it doesnt make u
feel that drunk or anything more of your
just happy...
