Trish shares her expert tips & insights on managing pain tolerance and raising the pain threshold during labor.
She emphasizes that your current pain tolerance level does not significantly impact your ability to handle labor pain.
Trish breaks down the importance of education, mindset, and preparation in raising your pain threshold during labor.
“ If you go into your labor understanding how intense it's gonna get, and preparing your body, having tools at your disposal, and having your mind ready to manage that pain intentionally, you're gonna be so freaking blown away by how much pain you'll actually be able to tolerate.” - Trish
She also touches on her comprehensive birth programs, which focuses on her three part framework: knowledge, mindset, and advocacy to empower you to navigate childbirth with confidence.
This episode will leave you understanding the difference between pain tolerance and pain threshold, and the potential for a better birth experience through preparation and the right mindset.
