So when u see women screaming on these programs its abit over the top for T.v? X
Some times its shouting through fear or loss of control, not pain. Labour can be a very anxious time and its easy to become stressed or panicked. I think I had two bits of it being too much the first time - once when I cried when they told me I was 5cm (I was overwhelmed) and again when they tried turning my son. Apart from that I was near enough silent my whole labour. I'm a huge chatterbox and normally very happy to express my displeasure so it was a surprise that I would become so 'in the zone'. My OH was a little disturbed by it and kept asking if I was asleep!!
