Frigging hell.... Ive asked myself is it that painful if so am teriified to give birth....that steph needs a slap from her partner..lol ralph kid was adorable,,,shame his girl chose her mum over that so sad
DON'T WORRY.
It is painful, granted. But you get through it. I was lucky, 8 hours of labour, about 6 were painful enough that I moaned VERY loudly as a cried hard, all through the contractions stage (active labour) - but I was in shock and was very frightened of the labour. I've friends who were in active labour for days!
During the pushing stage, I didn't scream, just bit the gas and air thingummy and concentrated on pushing and grunting.
Some people scream in a primal way - for example, see tennis or badminton players, same thing - it can give you that extra strength, to vocalise.
I might have to check out an episode on catch up now, to see what it's like.
But don't let something like this worry you. I've been there, yes I could hear someone else at one point but it didn't worry me, I knew some people make more noise than others.
This one sounds crazy though!
