Laughing gas huh?

So I just found out the hospital that I am having my baby in offers nitrous oxide [laughing gas 😘] to laboring moms. This has me so super excited because I really don't want an epidural, but also really don't want a traumatic birthing experience. Has anyone ever tried the laughing gas? How does it work and how did it make you feel? Did it improve your labor any? Also found out there will be a whirlpool bath in my room that I can labor in 😁😁 so I'm a lot less scared and way more excited for the whole thing. This is my first so the nerves were killing me there for a while. 2 weeks left!!
