Does labor have to be painful? NOPE.
There are so many tools out there that we can practice or purchase to help us have a pain-free or manageable birth experience.
I have supported so many women who’ve been able to achieve the natural birth they desired without medication through these pain management techniques and comfort measures - and, I also plan to use these again for my upcoming home birth.
Save and like this video to help yourself and other mamas prepare for a smoother and more comfortable labor experience.

@A Werking Mama thank you! Yes! We had a successful homebirth @ 44 weeks. This was our third and longest pregnancy, but thus far, my easiest birth. Your videos helped me to prepare in ways that I hadn't in my previous pregnancy, such as learning how to breathe and the types of breathes to take during each stage, positioning to open the pelvis, using the toilet as the dilation station, and doing certain exercises to keep labor moving.

Hubby wants to point out the TENS isn't using electromagnetism, but rather an electric current. Thanks for the video! Any suggestions how to practice with these measures?

Very informative. Would lemon balm be a good essential oil to diffuse during labor? Thanks again.

When i was laboring, i noticed when i stepped in the shower or submerged in the tub, the pain went away during those contractions but it came back for the next. If i unsubmerge myself and resubmerge myself when i feel a contraction, will it continue to help with the pain and will it be an effective contraction if i keep doing that?

Yes! This is the power of hydrotherapy. Water is natures epidural. This is a very effective strategy during labor for pain management.

Thank you for sharing this… I’m a 36 week pregnant black woman who is advised to give birth in a hospital due to having a c section 17 years ago. (1% chance of uterine rupture) I don’t want to fret about this experience but I must be honest. There’s a lil part of me that is. I know I must think happy thoughts. I’m doing as much research as I can. I encourage my fiancé to study as well. We need help. I feel like while in labor I have to be my own doula, and support person etc…
