Yes labor is painful so it's good to prepare so you know all the different methods for dealing with the pain before labor and write down to the midwife how you want things. The epidural is popular but there are other ways as well.

I have heard that raspberry tea will bring on strong (painful) contractions. I don't know if it will necessarily mean that you will go into labor. At this point, we are desperate to try anything, though!!!!
hi, i think it depends on the person, but with my first, second stage of labor was the most painful, contraction start to get stronger and tighter as the baby moves down. pain in labor can be really bad it all depends on the person hope it helps x
Braxton Hicks Contractions are false contractions. They can be painful or you may not feel them at all. Your stomach muscles contract and will fill like your stomach is getting tight then they will release. Your stomach will feel hard during one. You can get them all the way through pregnancy but probably won't feel them until later in your pregnancy. They don't mean you're in labor but if you get one and they feel really painful I would call the doctor just to be safe. In late pregnancy they can become very close together and very painful and feel like the real thing. They can even thin your cervix. When this happens it's called false labor. If you have close painful contractions and think your in labor go to the hospital to be sure.
Yes i have! It is VERY painful! My body forced its self into pre-labor! I have my son without any pain meds due to a miscarriage during that time!
