Given my quick labours and no time for bath showers etc, the number one thing during labour was position - on my knees leaning forward with legs spread. But the very best pain relief of all was holding my baby at the end!
The shower - i sat in the shower on a fitball, leaning forward on the bars for 2 and a half hours. had one forcet over my head and the other one DH was spraying on my lower back, It was fantastic, relaxing and comfortable. definetly go the water!
