My Granny had three kids, one of them was 10 lbs with no epidural and no C section. All that to say, she also had a kidney stone pass and she said that was way worse than child birth.
Now, every person has pain differently and you are sure entitled to an epidural. I had three kids and would have not made it without them. These helped me to get a handle on the pain and continue to focus and keep up with the breathing during the bad parts. You should not feel bad about taking the drugs. I think childbirth is no time for Martyrs. You need your strengh after to stay up nights. Also, you sure have a right to get a little short or grumpy. I sure don't see men lineing up to have babies. It is darn hard and long to for most people. You just get exausted and after 10 hours of pain, who knows what will fly out of your mouth. Don't feel bad. Take care.
