My mom said something interesting before. “The moans or screams of giving birth sounds like the moans or screams of sex” hmm it’s like the polar opposite in feeling but sounds the same. What do you think, do you think it’s true?
I think when women moan giving birth, it reminds me of pleasure moans but obviously it’s coming from pain. Sometimes the screams too lolll

I dont think it sounds the same at all

Depends on the person. Sometimes

I didn’t make sexy sounds during labor. It sounded more like a dying or grieving animal.

If you would have heard the scream I let out after they cut me while having my 1st baby, you would think it sounds more like someone was getting tortured

Absolutely not! I was just screaming in pain like I was dying!

Hahahaha!

I’ve heard some women where they actually do sound like it. She was having a home birth and was really calm about everything.
Me…my third…I was just focused on breathing. I was having him naturally. When he started crowning and came out I screamed a bit. My husband said it sounded like the same sound when I have a big orgasm lollll
I’ve seen this birthing technique where some midwifes mix pleasure with pain when a woman has a baby. Idk how they do that but it is possible lollll

Omg my husband said this to me when i was in labor!! He said you're making the same sounds you do during sex and I was like what!!!!!

😂 I didn’t even think about that

Hahahahah!!!!

😂😂😂 right??

I was screaming my lungs out 😂😂😂

i definitely sounded like i was having sex. i had my labour recorded and whenever i watch it i have to mute it because the way i’m sounding makes me feel SICK and embarrassed!!!!

I disagree. There was a woman who was in the bed opposite me in the hospital. And to this day I still say she was being excessive. As in the moment...as in the min they inserted the pessary she was whinging oh I cant do this I want my mom.

I've thought this too lol

I think that’s perfectly valid for her to be like that. Giving birth is awful and the pain is excruciating so totally normal for a woman to be saying she can’t do it and wants her mum. I screamed bloody murder and am not embarrassed by that at all.

I did not make sex sounds during labour. I sounded like a zoo of animals lol 😆 xxx

I don’t Moan during sex considering I have a child in the next room (he’s 11) so yeah I trained my body to have quite sex and I definitely was not quite during labor

I was thinking the same thing🤣

I sounded like a wounded animal, so I don’t think so.

🤣

oh dear!🥹

👌

pshhh I remember saying that “I couldn’t do this” myself. It is different for everyone. The lady across from me after I had my third the lady was screaming, yelling and swearing at the nurses. I can’t blame her because it is painful for women. All women just deal with it differently.

hahahahha

I feel you with quiet sex lmaoooo

hahaha!!!! Wounded animal. 🫶 I feel you. I felt like one. Lol

I was silent when pushing but I blew my gas and air like a trumpet in labour and definitely don't keep a trumpet in the bedroom lol

lmaooooo oh you don’t blow the trumpet during sex?! I do lollll jkkkk!!!
