Locating Pleasure Amidst Intensity in Labor with Midwife Robin Illian

Nuggets:
**Transition, the moments right before we get the urge to push is known as one of the most intense moments in childbirth
**Understanding our Anatomy empowers us to understand our capacity for pleasure in that moment through access to the pelvic nerve
**It can feel so good it almost feels like "cheating"!
**Surround yourself with people that can remind you of the spots to feel into
**Practitioners can embody the pleasure and bring that into the birthing field
**Hearing about other women's experiences of pleasure re-writes our map for what is possible for us
