One of the biggest concerns a pregnant woman has is her impending labour. And of course it is! As women who’ve done it before share their ‘wise words of wisdom’ and traumatic birth experiences, pregnant women are bound to be caught up in fear and nerves about what their own labour and birth experience will bring. And the reality of labour is – that it’s painful. But getting your head around why pain is necessary, what in fact is going on, and what can be some ways to manage the pain will set you up with confidence and tools to get through, or even enjoy the incredible labour that brings you face to face with your newborn baby.
