LOL Amber, that happens often - if it's not mum begging for drugs it's her partner or mother, who are freaking out! Try calling Optimum Birth in QLD - Chris Vose runs it and is an awesome woman - hillarious too - she's a doctor, midwife, doula and all the rest, very educated. She runs a Doula training business there and also a doula hiring business. You might be able to get a student if money is an issue but if you can get a doula or birth attendant, they are worth more than their weight in gold - they normalise the pain and help both mum and dad relax and enjoy their birthing journey.
