It is hard to predict how much pain you will
have until you go through labor. Some women have
tolerable, controllable levels of pain, while others may
benefit from some form of pain relief. Many non-medical
techniques exist that can help the pain during labor,
including breathing and relaxation techniques, warm
showers, massage, supportive nursing care, position
changes (standing, sitting, walking, rocking), and using
a labor ball to name a few. The proponents of
non-medicated childbirth pain relief methods claim these
methods to be effective in overcoming pain, and make
labor and delivery a pleasurable experience. For
additional information on these methods, women are
encouraged to visit their websites. A birthing educator can
also help
you with more information.
Some
women on the other hand seek a medicated form of pain
relief methods.
