Your Guide to Pain Relief in Labour: From A to Z

The experience of pain in labour is shaped by many factors - previous experiences, as well as emotional, physical, motivational, cognitive, social, and cultural circumstances. In this episode, Drs. Alicia and Sarah explore both medicinal and non-medicinal strategies for managing pain, with a special focus on epidurals (a topic we’re often asked about!). Understanding your options is key to making decisions that feel right for you, even when labour doesn’t go entirely according to plan. To support you, we’ve put together a free handout on the Risks and Benefits of Epidurals and How to Support Your Partner in Labour , along with related episodes on Hypnobirthing and Waterbirths .
