[quote=Anonymous]I had a low-pain, high sensation childbirth (that is a weird way to put it but the best way I can). The endorphins and the powerful rush of pleasure (well, this was a very intesnse, pain / pleasure mix) of the pushing stage brought on lots of sensations. I think that I could have let them take over, physically, and had some sort of rush of sensation that is not unlike an orgasm, but I did not actually have an orgasm. Nor was I trying to. I read the Ina May book and loved it, but don't see birth as sexual love, just pure love. If physical sensations such as orgasm accompanied, so be it, but I wasn't going for it.

I definitely believe it is possible, however. I think there are different types and "strengths" of orgasm, and while it is possible that some women who had "orgasmic" births may have mistaken intense (and perhaps unexpected) pleasure signals during birth as orgasm, it's equally possible that some women either didn't recognize those feelings as orgasm or were weirded out by them enough that they subsided (the orgasm can be elusive, as PP with the happy husband can attest!)

I do agree that it's very easy to fake an orgasm, but I question the motivation of anyone doing so, and really, really think it would be hard to fake an orgasm during childbirth. It's not exactly a time of careful calculation and scheming! [/quote]
