About Painless Delivery

Comfortable, well-managed childbirth

Painless delivery uses epidural analgesia — medicine delivered near the nerves of the lower spine — to greatly reduce the pain of labour while you stay awake, aware and in control. It does not cause complete numbness, so you can still feel pressure and push effectively.

By taking the edge off contractions, an epidural helps you rest during long labour, conserve energy for the pushing stage and experience birth more positively. Our obstetric and anaesthesia teams manage every step together for the safety of both mother and baby.

FAQ

Painless Delivery — your questions answered

Usually once active labour is established (around 4–5 cm dilation), though the timing is tailored to your comfort and your doctor's assessment.

No. Research shows epidurals do not raise caesarean rates; the relaxation they provide can actually help a normal delivery progress.

The medication stays mostly around the spinal nerves with minimal transfer to the baby, and it does not affect your ability to breastfeed.

Your anaesthetist can reposition the catheter or adjust the dose to achieve proper, even pain relief.

Yes. An epidural reduces pain without full numbness, so you can still feel pressure and push effectively with your team's guidance.
