3 natural births. Which totally seems like my mom. I believe she even told one of the nurses that advised her if she needed to scream that she could, "she didn't think screaming was necessary"

My mum had a forceps delivery with me at 34 weeks. She had gas-and-air as pain relief. She had loads of stitches too and took a long time to heal.

@autumnlove: my mom had 2 unmedicated births. They happened too fast for her to get drugs. I'm pretty sure my MIL had 2 unmedicated births as well, and she's a tiny lady who had 9 pounders!

My mom had two c sections. My MIL had 3 vag deliveries but I don't know if they were unmedicated. I know the birth of my SIL was terrible and she was badly torn, sounded unmedicated to me.

My MIL and mother each had 2 medicated, super quick, super easy labors and vaginal births. Pitocin, epidural, and all that.
My moms third child came at 27 weeks and ended up being a c section.

My Mother had two emergency c-sections, both resulting in complications and infections. My brother was fifteen (!) days overdue and I was a week late.
My Mum always thought she'd have three kids but she decided to stop at two due to her horrendous experiences!

I'm an only child--my mom was induced with Pitocin and did not have an epidural, though I think I remember her saying she had a narcotics shot at some point (something similar to Stadol).
My MIL had two vaginal births and I'm pretty sure both were unmedicated. .
