r*m*y - oops meant Twin...just came to fix my error, a major part of the "pain" factor is to do with if you're relaxed or not. Most people I know are not relaxed during a pap and I find them very uncomfortable and have a pain factor also. I had a c/s with my first with no labour so was very afraid as you are of the impending birth. I did hypnobirthing - you can read my birth story here Oskar Levi's birthing journey - I can honestly say that I didn't have pain during his birth, I had discomfort but no pain...and yes adrenalin does play a part here and is a natural painkiller for the body. Maybe look into something like hypnobirthing (or calm birthing) as after just the first lesson I felt so much better about it all.
