Is labor the worst pain?

Labor pain is one of the most severe pains which has ever evaluated and its fear is one of the reasons women wouldn't go for natural delivery.

While the experience is different for everyone, labor can feel like extremely strong menstrual cramps that take your breath away, get progressively more intense, and become so strong that you might be you unable to talk through them. Everyone experiences contractions differently, with some people feeling more tightness and pressure in their abdomen and others feeling contractions in their back or pelvic area. As the baby moves down, and depending on the baby's position, the contraction pain and intensity can change as well.

During the pushing phase, some people feel clingy, not wanting their partners to leave their sides; some yell and become uncharacteristically demanding; some tremble and feel overwhelmed and anxious, and some lose all sense of modesty. To some people, pushing feels like you are having a large bowel movement. When the baby finally starts to come out, many people think they've actually pooped. And many people actually do, because 1) you push with the same muscles as having a bowel movement and 2) the body naturally clears out space for your baby to move through! We promise your nurses are totally used to it though and it's not a big deal at all.
