Women who are massaged by their partners, midwives, doulas or other support figures during labor experience pain relief and have even been shown to have shorter labors overall. Touch and massage also help a woman relax and the more relaxed she is the more efficient labor will be.

When a woman is stressed, she releases adrenaline which counteracts the effects of oxytocin, the hormone that produces contractions. Massage helps to release feel-good endorphins to assist with a natural birth experience.

Gentle rubbing of the abdomen and deeper massage of the lower back during contractions generally prove the most useful and effective techniques - although each woman will have her own preferences during labor. Begin gently and allow the mother to be your best guide as to what she needs during her unique experience of labor.

Don't neglect other areas such as the head, face, feet and hands which can become tense during labor. Muscles can be kneaded between the thumb and fingers. Massage strokes should be continuous, rhythmic, and definite, going from up to down and down to up without lifting the hands.

Prepare yourself mentally, physically and spiritually for the birth by reading books on childbirth, joining a support group for pregnant women, speaking to mothers of children or your own mother or mother-in-law. Taking good care of yourself in the form of a balanced diet, getting enough rest, relieving stress, meditating and talking with your partner about the future will be invaluable in preparing yourself for labor, birth and parenthood.

Organize a birth plan including the place you would like to deliver, who should be present and your preferences of medical interventions in different circumstances.

A supportive environment at the birth has been shown to be one of the most important factors in the speed of delivery and how much pain the mother feels. Think carefully about who you would like to have present at the birth for support and consider a trained doula or birthing assistant.
