Heh, for a minute there, henrypie I thought your husband was one of 'those'.
From the movie 'Splash'
Eugene Levy as Walter Kornbluth is sitting in the dentist chair, torturing himself over the suffering the mermaid is undergoing due to his actions.
When offered novocaine, he refuses, "I don't deserve it."
Dentist: "Oh, you're one of those...." ;D

I just posted my last post out loud to have a so far unrepresented experience represented. It sounds like you know that.
No novocaine. My teeth would probably have to fall out rather than go through that. I guess he won't be complaining about our guest room mattress in August. (Just kidding, it's actually quite new and comfortable.)
serious crayons:
My feeling was, I've been taking drugs all my life -- why would I stop now? So I had epidurals both times. But the first time it didn't really "take," and it was pretty unpleasant. For a lot of reasons besides pain -- more difficult birth in general, bad-old-days high-tech medically delivery room, foreceps, endless pushing, etc.
The second time, I was in one of those birthing rooms fixed up to look like a luxury hotel room (same hospital! that's the difference 17 months made in the mid-'90s). My husband and I sat up all night watching '60s sitcoms on Nickelodean, relaxing, me not completely comfortable but not in agony, and the next morniing when it was time for my son to come he popped out like a spit watermelon seed.

Ooh, what about Steve Martin in Little Shop of Horrors? Is that right? He's the mean biker guy who loves it loves it loves it?
My husband, who has said he has no problem with my using his name by the way -- it's Ruediger -- wanted me to stress that he DID have novocaine for wisdom tooth-extraction (I had GENERAL for that -- well, nitrous, mmmm) and I guess fillings until he was 19 when an army dentist told him he was really going to need novocaine and did a bum job and turned Ruediger off forever.
Ruediger! That's his name.
You know what's funny to me? Ruediger does not complain much, but he whines and carries on like the third act of Tosca when he has to take cough syrup or NyQuil. He is SUCH a baby in that regard.
