  • Summary

  • What do contractions feel like? How do I know if true labor has started? Once it has started, what do I do? All of these questions and more will be discussed in this week's episode of Rock Your Birth.


    Early labor contractions are, generally, mildly uncomfortable but not very intense. However, early labor is often the longest phase of labor. It can takes hours to days until you reach active labor. So how can you cope through this waiting period?


    It's so natural to feel excited and nervous when labor begins. Although contractions may not be intense at this point, your body is doing incredibly hard work to dilate and efface so your baby can eventually move through the birth canal.


    While your body does this work, it's important to stay relaxed, nourished, and listen to what your body needs.
