Melissa Joan Hart was determined to give birth to her second child naturally - and ordered her family to stop her demanding painkillers during her labour.
The former Sabrina the Teenage Witch star delivered son Braydon in March (08), her second son with husband Mark Wilkerson.
And Hart, who endured "medical intervention" during the birth of three-year-old Mason, was adamant that her next labour go as smoothly as possible.
She tells Us Weekly magazine, "I told my mom and my husband, don't let me have (the drugs).
"I kinda regret that one. But the thing is, the healing was so much faster. I didn't have to get the drugs out of my system and was moving around a lot more.
"I laboured at home for nine hours and then went to the hospital for an hour and a half - two pushes and he was out."
