[quote=Anonymous]You can get limbs amputated without anesthesia as long as you go quickly before the body can go into shock. You cannot get a csection without anesthesia as the shock would kill you. Obviously women have birthed without epidurals for millennia. It's possible, but it might just be the worst day of your life. And in my mom's group I know plenty of women who did it without epidurals, half willingly and half unwillingly due to conditions outside their control. Second babies come very fast. Additionally, there are other pain medications and local injections you can get if you can't get an epidural. Nitrous Oxide would be preferable but not all hospitals have it. [/quote]
