Oh you should look into home births. It's amazing. The pain level seems to be cut in half for most of the women. I suppose it's because they stay in natural positions and it's quiet and calming. They aren't treated like they are sick, or in an emergency medical situation. It's amazing. I've never done it, but only because I'm considered high risk and no midwife will take me, but I sure wanted to with my first. Back then there wasn't any midwives to be found around here. Watch "The Business of Being Born", some parts I don't agree with, but there are some great tastefully filmed home births there. You can also see alot of home births on youtube watch those and compare them to the hospital births that are posted on there.
***Warning**** Those videos I'm talking about are very graphic and may not be appropriate for younger BYCer's, ask Mom first.
