OK - yoga breathing actually does help quite a bit, but YES do an epidural! I'll have to tell you my labor story... I'm now a strong supporter of plenty of pregnancy exercize, controlled breathing, and pre/ante (depending on your country!) natal yoga! What a difference all those made for me...and they certainly won't be a detriment to anyone preparing to go into labor.

I like the slide show thingy - I'm hoping I can figure out how to make it work :)
Definitely get the epidural! Definitely - child birth is no time to be a hero!

Obviously, this couple is comprised of a pair of super humans. The resulting offspring must be amazing. And pretty. And she probably has awesome taste in music. Just a guess.

I'll take 4 epidurals, please.

I know someone who did natural, using the Bradley method, and did it very well. The husband was terrified until the moment actually came and was surprised at how well it went.

The woman is gorgeous and the husband is muscular, and quite possibly a genius. And, also, really cool.

That said, if I were a woman, there's no way in hell I'd do it without an epidural. Hell, I'd need an epidural and, most likely, blunt force trauma to the head.
