If you’re pregnant and preparing to give birth the weird and wonderful world of labour can seem strange and downright scary! The movies paint an often unrealistic picture of labour and birth.
The panicked rush to the hospital. The woman laying on her back, screaming for an epidural. It’s enough to put anybody off.
In reality, particularly for first-time mums, labour can be a slow process. You can spend hours–sometimes days–in early labour before your beautiful baby makes his or her grand arrival.
