![]() The fear of pain is the most common concern for pregnant people, especially if it is their first birth and they are unsure of what to expect. “How bad is the pain?” or “I don’t know if I will be able to go unmedicated, but I would like to...”, are both common thoughts that I hear from expecting clients who are interested in an unmedicated birth or know that they will experience some labor before an epidural. First things first, it all starts with knowledge. Let’s talk about the sensation or pain you might experience in labor. It helps to memorize this acronym: P: It is not like a charley horse or breaking a bone. It is purposeful. The contraction is doing something very purposeful and productive by opening the cervix, and the uterus muscle is spinning the baby into position, pushing the baby down and out. It is bringing you your baby! A: The sensation is anticipated. Contractions or waves are patterned and they continue to build, so it is not like a scary surprise, but you can sense it building. I: The pain is intermittent, not constant. Unless there is something else going on, you do not feel the sensation of pain in between contractions. These moments in between are nice breaks where you can rest, change positions, communicate, etc. N: The discomfort of labor is normal. The discomfort felt during labor is not cause for alarm, unlike an emergency situation where you break a bone, rupture an appendix, etc. We can normalize the feeling of contractions in labor. Once you have some knowledge around birth, your perception can begin to shift. Many like to re-frame the word “pain” or “contractions”, and prefer to use a word like “waves” or “surges”. I personally call them contractions, but feel that “waves” is a great descriptor because you can feel the contraction building up, peaking, and then falling... like a wave. It then washes away until the next one rolls in. Your only job is to ride the wave, not fight it. I also like to describe it as pure power. It is the kind of power you don’t have to will into existence, instead you have to let it be. It is pretty awe inspiring, and really opens your eyes to what your body can do. The Evidence on Doulas Laboring women report lower pain levels and lower anxiety levels when they are supported by a doula. There is also a decrease in requests for pain medication, and labors are on average shorter with the support of a doula. Pain is a physical reaction. Suffering is an emotional reaction, and can be better understood by education and learning what to expect. Here is a great, short clip from Doula and Childbirth Educator, Penny Simkin, on pain versus suffering. Whether you decide on a medicated or unmedicated birth, it’s important to understand the choices and effects of BOTH options. Below, I have included some popular medications to ease the pain during labor and birth:
The 615 Doula Co Approach As a doula, here are some strategies that I use to reduce pain during labor:

Good day to everyone reading this! I am Martha Stewart from Blue Ridge, Georgia, and I want to write a testimony on this website about how I was helped through infertility with spell casting. My journey was not an easy one being unable to get pregnant until I came across this email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com about how it has saved most marriages from the brink of divorce due to infertility. My husband and I do engage in outdoor activities by the countryside and seeing other families enjoy and have fun with their kids wasn't an easy task for me and I felt lost. We did have therapy sections having to cope with endometriosis stage 4. Almost giving up hope as a woman of 54 years, I decided to give it a try and see if it can be good to be true and alas it is a wonderful experience. I am a mother of twins today, a boy and a girl and I write this with a bundle of joy in my heart. I believe there are many women looking for opportunities on how to get fertile with most infertility blogs but I came to see that only Dr. Odunga can solve any problem with his fast and reliable work.

The journey of infertility has never left anyone with happiness especially when the journey lasted for so long with several solutions that never just worked out successfully. I feared my 8 years of infertility without a year or period of miscarriage for once in my life. A time came when my husband started to get tired of my infertility problem without a solution after a lot of medical processes to have a fertility success that didn't just work out and left me with no hopes of keeping my marriage alive as my husband refused us from adopting. All he wanted was a child or children with his DNA. Life became so difficult for me until I found out about this rare magical spell caster on a very special blog. ''Lord Erhun'' was a spell caster I have never heard of before. but what I read about him was so convincing and basically true. I had to contact Lord Erhun Via email; [meetlorderhun@gmail.com] for him to help me conceive with a pregnancy spell. Everything happened so fast after casting the spell I was pregnant within 2weeks and in months it was confirmed to be a set of twins. Today I am a mother, all thanks to Lord Erhun. Spell is real, Lord Erhun is true and powerful..

My name is Giovanni Jahem. I have gone through rough times with different men finding true love and genuine acceptance until I met my husband who came into my life and loved me beyond words can explain. We lived together for 2 years and we were happy until too many arguments came up and we split our ways. I thought I could move on but I realized i was deeply in love with him and needed forever with him. I had no option than to seek help which led me to contacting Dr Isikolo knowing how he has been able to help others. He gave me his attention and did his best to reconcile us back together and in 48 hours, the result manifested and he came back to me and we made things up again. Now the love and happiness has been restored back and all I can say is that I truly appreciate Dr Isikolo for being selfless in helping me and others.
