Listening to music during labour is the latest trend which helps women get relaxed, and reduces anxiety while in pain.
Music is a very powerful tool. Listening to appropriate music of your choice can help you to relax, release stress and unwind.
Each one of us will have a different choice in music and it is up to you to discover what genre of music you like.
In present times there is so much music available to download from various sources that everybody is spoilt for choice. It is extremely easy to download a playlist of your own choice.
Does Music Help During Childbirth?
Music is particularly useful during childbirth. Women are now encouraged to bring along their own music downloaded on their phones.
They can use a headphone or earphone during labour to listen to the music that they like.
This will help them relax during labour pains. Music can provide a distraction and take their mind off the pain and it can help to synchronise the breathing with the contractions.
It can make the whole experience of labour entertaining and positive and give a feel-good, feel the relaxed experience.
Music can provide a way of emotional release. It is also good for the heart because it can help lower the blood pressure as it soothes and relaxes.
So go ahead and download the music of your choice and don’t forget to carry it with you to the labour and delivery room.
Just as a birthing partner is essential and can change the whole experience of labour so also your music can enhance your experience.
