Abstract :

Being parent is one of the happiest movements in a life. Breathing exercises is one of the most common methods used for natural pain relief during childbirth. In the first stage of labour, such eathing techniques can promote physical relaxation by reducing muscle tension and promotes emotional relaxation by reducing pain and well oxygenated muscles function more effectively and efficiently. Therefore the present study was aimed to assess the level of behavioral response among primigravida mothers during first stage of labour in experimental group and control group. Material and methods: The design was adopted true experimentaldesign with pre-test post-test control group design was used for this study. The sample consisted of 80 mothers, 40 in experimental group and 40 in control group. The purposive sampling technique was used to select the samples. The data was collected by using base line Performa and Observational check list. Result: unpaired ‘t’ test shows that there is a significant difference between mean post-test behavioral score of experimental group & control group in I,II & III observation. The Computed value (t = 21.456, 24.797, 32.094 respectively). Hence the result was found highly significant difference. Conclusion: The study concluded that eathing exercise is an effective non pharmacological intervention for reducing labor pain perception.
