Cumming during childbirth

So we are back in the editorial office. Sand between the toes swept away, borrowed laptop opened because I left mine somewhere in my beach house and ready to go. But not before we first had a catch-up session in the kitchen with each other. And as always, we hopscotch from Daniëlle's birthday to Lotte's Bay to the topic of orgasming during childbirth. Not that this had anything to do with Lotte, by the way, but it was suddenly shouted out and it seems to be true. 0.3 percent of women experience an orgasm during childbirth.

I have groaned, but that really had a pain-related cause and had nothing to do with a pleasure issue. How does it work? Due to the oxytocin and endorphins that are produced during childbirth to ease the pain, you could also be sexually stimulated. And because the baby is pushing down, it can stimulate your sexual organs and thus your clitoris. It seems quite uncomfortable to experience an orgasm in a room full of strangers, but on the other hand: it’s all groaning and flowing of fluids in the delivery room, so no one would notice, and an orgasm seems to be the best pain reliever, so why not.
