The current popularity of natural childbirth can make some pregnant women believe that using pain-relieving drugs during labour is ‘weak’ or a sign of ‘failure’. However, childbirth is one of the most painful experiences the human body can ever have. Some women are lucky and have relatively short, easy labours, while others experience long, agonising ordeals. If you planned for a natural birth but find the labour pains overwhelming, don’t be reluctant to ask for pain relief. Childbirth isn’t a moral or political judgement of your ‘performance’ - the aim is simply to bring your baby into the world.
