How can I ease back labor pain?

Tips For Easing Back Labor

Back labor usually happens when a baby is posterior, with the back of the head pressing against the back of the pelvis. First thing you can do to relieve back pain is to change positions, walk around if you can. Have your coach apply heat or cold to the spot. Sometimes applying counterpressure helps to relieve the pain. Have your coach massage the area with a tennis ball - firmly. Though this may leave you a little sore - it helps at the time.
