Natural childbirth techniques?!?
ByMy sister said even though she had the epidural in the end she used some natural childbirth techniques for her contractions. She got the epidural at 7 cms, even after having the pitocin (the nurse told her the pitocin makes contractions feel worse). I was just wondering what some of them were so when I go into labor I can have a more positive delivery. Thanks for the help:)

Contractions are bad, but they are nothing compared to pushing. Granted I got my epidural when I was about 6cm (also induced w/ Pitocin), so it’s not like I was in the final stages of labor w/ one contraction after another. If you are doing it natural I can’t really advise you on the final stages since I had an epidural, but I can tell you I pushed w/ no epidural & used no techniques & my baby was out in 20 min. My advice would be concentrate, breathe & push w/ all your might.
