What about including the "purpose of pain"? That pain during the birth process is normal and instead of being feared, should be seen as positive and worked with! There are some great articles out on that, including some work from Sarah Buckley.

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if someone could please point me to some recommended
accurate, up-to-date resources on pain relief in labour, as I am writing an
article on BellyBelly (to accompany the natural birth article I wrote for
this month) about the various forms of current pain relief and the real
risks for mother and baby. I already have Sarah Buckley's article on
Epidurals but I would like to cover all methods of pain relief in the one
article. There seems to be a great deal of out-dated information people are
getting hold of and discussing them across websites (particularly lots of
american info), so I would like to provide something more reliable and
hopefully local. I'd like to write about what medications are contained in
the forms of pain relief, side effects, any stats and general information on
how they are applied etc.

Any personal comments or experiences would be gladly accepted also.

Thank-you in advance!

Best Regards,
