screaming/moaning during labour?

Question

For the ladies who already had babies!
Did you scream and moan during labour or did you hear anyone screaming during labour and did it scare you? 
If you did scream did you have a natural or medicated labour?

Answer

I screamed moaned and cursed off my obgyn like a sailor... I went natural. To be fair I hated the woman with a passion and saw it as on opportunity to express how I truly felt about her... I would have probably stopped cursing faster if she didn't tell me I needed to stop and behave like a lady it was like an fbomb assault in l&d

Answer

Last time I was in the L & D triage the lady next to me was moaning and saying "oh God" so much I told my nurse if I didn't know any better I'd think she was having some great sex in there. The nurse had a hard time keeping a straight face at my comment.

Answer

I screamed, moaned and cried. I had no epidural until I reached 9 cm. But you get through it... here comes #2! No turning back now. :)

Answer

Labor hurt too much for me to scream😕 I did a lot of low moaning and deep breathing. I tried to keep my body as relaxed as possible because it seems the more tense you are the more painful the contractions are. At least that's how it felt to me.

Answer

I heard one lady screaming like crazy.  I felt bad for her. 
We had learned in prenatal that low pitched sounds help more then screaming.  I am pretty sure I sounded like a cow for the last hour of my labour but it did help i think!  Lol.  I had fentanol for pain relief.  In the last hour I don't think it really helped anymore.

Answer

I've had medicated as well as unmedicated birth. With my unmedicated I made a lot of noise and heavy breathing...and cursing. The only time I screamed was when I was pushing his shoulders out...they got stuck for just a sec. Sorry if that's TMI 😐

Answer

I moaned and screamed but never heard anyone else scream when I was waiting for my suite

Answer

I screamed, cursed & threw whatever I could get my hands on. Than they finally gave me the drugs & I fell asleep. I remember the dr telling me I was scaring the other moms, hahaha

Answer

I heard screaming in the room next to me for about 20 mins and then heard a baby crying which was pretty cool!

Answer

I haven't had a baby yet, but from a medical standpoint, screaming and moaning helps to ease pain. Similar to cursing, moaning releases endorphins that ease pain. We can't fight or flight from our aches and illnesses, so next time you're in pain for any reason, don't hold those moans in!
