Hey Jewels!
Congratulations once again on your pregnancy, these are exciting times. Firstly I'm not going to lie to you, labour is painful, but as the Duck says, women have gone through it for thousands of years and survived, so try not get stressed about it - it will just make the experience worse.
I'm sure you've read all the advice regarding pain relief, and personally I see no reason why in this day and age why one can't take advantage of modern technology, and providing your pain relief does not affect your baby, go for it!
I still find it amazing that once your baby is in your arms, all memory of the pain disappears before you know it.
Enjoy your last few weeks alone together... once your little one is here there will be little time for anything else for a while.
Wishing you all of the best for your birth, and please let us know how you are!
