i skipped the classes there really is no preparing for labor, it comes if you're ready or not you have no clue what hand you've been dealt! i wanted so badly to do it with no drugs, but the pain became so unbearable i couldn't do anything but tell myself to keep breathing and my water hadn't broken yet so i knew i still had quite a while to go yet. the epidural was like walking through heavens pearly gates! my dr told me i was the happiest pregnant woman she ever met after it kicked in and the nurse had to tell me when i was having a contraction so that i could push. 23 hours later my daughter finally was out. but i have heard women who don't even realize they are in labor until this water starts running down their leg and they barely get to the hospital before the baby pops out.
