Abstract Painless labor refers to using a variety of pain-relieving methods during labor which includes non-pharmacological and pharmacological methods to help the women better cope with labor pain. Increased knowledge among pregnant women and positive attitudes regarding painless labor can empower them to make informed decisions towards pain management and be prepared for the labor process. This in turn, will reduces women’s fear and anxiety, promote an easy labor process, increase women’s satisfaction with childbirth experience as well as leads to better birth outcome. While, a lack of knowledge can influence woman’s attitudes towards painless labor methods, can result in negative labor experience, and increase the requests for CS. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women regarding painless labor. |
