[quote=Anonymous]For my first, it felt like intense diarrhea cramps during transition, everything else just felt like period cramps. My cousin told me "embrace the sensations." to me it wasn't exactly pain. It wasn't a pleasant feeling, but at the same time that it was painful, it was exhilarating. Like running when you're beyond exhausting, pushing through to the next milestone kind of thing. They don't call it labor for nothing. When / if the pain is excrutiating, change what you're doing. Get on your hands and knees, soak in a tub for a while, counterpressure for back labor, shake your hips. Don't push on your back or on your butt, try to be on hands and knees or squatting. Good luck! I LOVED birth, I am looking forward to baby 2. PS. I'm a total wimp in other areas of life / pain. [/quote]
