Child Birth Orgasms

Did you have an orgasm in childbirth?

I know sure as heck I did not!!!

o_O When I have kids, they are doping me up as much as medically possible. Those people sound just a wee bit crazy...

Doula Lauren said...

This is not crazy! But this news program does put a sensational spin to this subject. I've attended 10 births so far. If you drug yourself up VampAmber you are setting yourself up for a c-section. Interventions cause a lot of problems. I've seen many natural childbirths with very little pain whatsoever!

I've heard of this but I don't know a single mom who's experienced it. I try not to judge, but it sounds a bit bizarre.

I passed on childbirth and got cats and dogs instead.

BetteJo said...

2 natural births here, but not like that! I can see how it could be more relaxing and less painful in different circumstances, in the water, etc. But orgasm? I don't think so. 21 percent? I seriously doubt it. Besides, if I filmed the birth - I would want to be able to show my kids someday! :)

Technodoll said...

This is one of the most traumatic things I've ever seen!

*runs away screaming*

ps: I too passed on the kids and got dogs instead, LOL!

If that's a way to get through the pain, then someone should have told me about it the first three times!

Skittles said...

I thought I'd heard everything. LOL!

DaisyDeadhead said...

Craziest thing I ever heard, but it's the "new thing"--everyone is talking about it and buying books about it, etc.

Liz said...

Flipping heck! I should coco! (What a tsrange phrase that is: I've never written it before.)

I haven't watched the video yet but having read the comments I think I'd better.

I've have two children and both my experiences never, ever came close to what I have on this video. No way! I was the girl clinging to the side of the hospital bed, pleading for my epidural.

Once I got my drugs, I was in much better shape, but climaxing? Um, no.

Great find, though. Just goes to show that there is nothing that is off limits to prime time TV anymore. :)

Who the heck is thinking about an orgasm when your are being ripped apart....

wait..er..nevermind..lol

Shinade said...

All I know is 2 different things from 2 births. One was intense labor for about 26 hours. Let me tell you I was so grateful for the drugs.

The other one came very fast so I did get to experience the so called joys of natural birht...Not for me...it hurt like He##!!:-)))

Gran said...

The only thing that came rolling through my labor was pain.

Of course, I gave birth to my son 36 years ago!

Awake In Rochester said...

Due to this post I have decided to get pregnant!

No way! Did I fool you for even a second? ;)

These women must be masochistic!

Lapa37 said...

I had both my kids by c-section so I didn't have to go through labor.I am not sure if I did have it that it would have been like these ladies.

Tammy said...

God no, all I had was a heck of a lot of stitches when I had my kids! LOL

Siani said...

I've not had any kids, but period pains are no fun, so childbirth must be excruciating by comparison. Not exactly my idea of an orgasmic experience!

LLnL said...

I recently heard about his and I think anything that can make the birthing process better is great. I wish they taught classes on it.

Posh Totty said...

One forceps delivery and one c-section and not a single orgasm during either unfortunately.

Natalia said...

Well, that *was* an interesting clip. I had both kids naturally, and didn't think the first one was that painful (the second one was!) but no orgasms here!

Tina said...

yuk i didnt know that existed, how wrong is that lol
