Moved this to Brooklyn Kids because the topic isn't at all about the neighborhood of Prospect Heights.

Thank you for not moving it to Park Slope.


Seriously folks, this board is not the best place for your medical advice. We are here for neighborhood related chat.

Valerie I would talk to your doctor about a "water birth" (?) I'm not sure if that is the proper name for it but I have come across a few articles where mothers swear that it lessened the pain for them. Those roller thingies or tennis balls worked well on my lower back pain but I have to admit I didn't have much.

And as a side - I would just say grin and bear it - its good practice for when the child becomes a teen and the pain moves further down to where they become a big pain the a$%
