Online Childbirth Education Class Four

Using your voice during labor and birth can be very useful. Making grunting noises while pushing (much like weight lifters) is done almost involuntarily. Any noise that works for you is probably good, the only exception tends to be high pitched noises.

Try this:

Make a high pitched squeal. Can you feel your bottom and throat tighten. Now make a low moan. Can you feel your body loosen? The same principal applies in labor.
