I couldn't have an epidural actually. The first time the doctor refused to give it to me because he thought I was allergic to one of the drugs in it. Second time, it just happened to fast to get one. I went from three cm to seven cm in an hour. An hour later my son was born. I did have IV drugs, which don't do much but make you sleepy between contractions.
I just liked being in control of my labor. I was able to tell them what I felt, and when I needed to push, and etc. I'm just a control freak...
