Our son was born in Sweden. My wife had the choice of nitrous oxide, giving birth in a hot tub, or having saltwater injected in her groin area. We did not have the option of an epidural .

The medical people said that the saltwater injections simply mask the pain because they were so painful.

We chose the nitrous oxide. My wife just acted drunk for three hours. But when it was over she didn’t remember a thing. Actually I kind of liked it better than the American system.

It appears to be one of the most common analgesics in Europe.
