A Seattle stay-at-home mom who sang through labor to deliver her son as her husband played guitar says she hardly experienced pain — it “felt like a vacation.”
Biffy Hell, 31, and her musician husband, Brandon, 30, sang hymns and their favorite songs for most of Biffy’s five-hour labor in November.
They were even joined in song by their doula, Maddy Barnes, 26.
“It was pain management — it really helped singing to focus on controlling the breath,” Biffy explained to SWNS.
“I was shocked I didn’t have that much pain. It felt like a vacation,” she added.
Biffy and Brandon wanted to have a natural home birth with their daughter, Penelope, 2, but Biffy ended up going to the hospital for induction when she reached 42 weeks in her pregnancy.
