    I ended up with a spinal and huge episiotomy, but didn't feel a thing. Was fine with the stitches, although what happened when they took out the plugs and let me stand up was worthy of a horror movie. :eek: :rotfl:

    I had my horror movie moment a week after i got home, when the bit of placenta they'd left in decided to make an appearance on the bathroom floor ! Cue ambulance with flashing lights !

    There should be a horror movie thread shouldn't there ? Don't want to hijack this one really.

    Ive had 2 kids, episiotomy with first, but the injection for the Mirena removal was far worse. Maybe as there was no other distraction like actually going through labour pains etc it felt worse, or maybe as I was given no idea it was going to happen. But having done childbirth twice it obviously didn't mean it all goes swimmingly for other things!
