Background:
Labor pain is one of the most severe pains which has ever evaluated and its fear is one of the reasons women wouldn't go for natural delivery. Considering different factors which affect experiencing pain, this study aimed to explain women's experiences of pain during childbirth.
Methods:
This was a qualitative phenomenological study. The study population was composed of 14 women in 6 weeks post-partum period of natural delivery. The data were collected by interview. The data were analyzed by Colaizzi's seven-stage method.
Results:
AFTER ANALYZING THE INTERVIEWS, FOUR MAIN CATEGORIES WERE EXTRACTED: the nature of delivery pain, the related factors in labor pain, the results of labor pain, and the perception of caseworkers.
Conclusions:
Assessing the women's experiences can be useful in giving better care. It helps understand the delivery pain phenomenon. Positive aspects of delivery pain must be strengthened and its negative aspects must be reduced as much as possible to create a suitable vision towards it.
