What are some tips for managing pain during labor and delivery

My tips for pain management during labor: The first one is if you’re in active labor, so 4 to 6 centimeters or more along, get out of bed. Usually, the least comfortable place for a laboring person to be is laying on their back in a bed. So that means standing at the side of the bed swaying your hips, or sitting on a birth ball or a yoga ball at the bedside and swaying your hips. It might mean being in a tub or in the shower, or slow dancing with your partner. But usually, movement, being able to move and being upright are much more comfortable than laying in bed. That’s my number 1 tip for coping with the sensations of labor.
