    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.

    Both my mom and MIL had two unmedicated vaginal births. I had the same and they were great motivators/coaches (though neither was present)/inspiraton!

    @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!

    induced at 2+ weeks overdue with me (8.5 lbs) and my brother (10 lbs something!!!), had epidurals both times.

    had my twin sisters at 38 weeks i think (6 lbs something EACH), and birthed both of them with an epi. they were born something crazy like 4 min apart!

    My mom had an emergency c-section with me, and a scheduled section with my sister. MIL had two vaginal births - can't remember if they were medicated or not.

    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. .

    MIL had two c-sections

    I have had two c-sections and will have a third December 30th.

    Mom had two vaginal with epidural births.
    I had one vag w/epidural birth

    Dunno about MIL, don't care to ask her.

    Speaking of...when Mom had us, husband's weren't allowed in the labor room!!! I can't imagine.

    My mom had a c-section (me) and then two VBACs

    MIL had 4 homebirths. She is totally nuts and not crunchy at all and I can't quite believe this but I know it's true!
