Childbirth
During childbirth the baby lies in the mother's uterus with his head pointing down toward the cervix. The first stages of labor begin with short, regular contractions of the uterus, every few minutes, which continue until the mother's cervix is fully dilated. In the second stage of labor the contractions become more forceful, more frequent, and more painful. As the baby's head starts to move down the vagina the amniotic sac breaks and fluid is released. The top of the head appears at the entrance of the vagina and finally bulges out. This is the crowning of the head. The contractions which follow push the baby even farther down so that the head is delivered. The baby's eyes immediately begin to blink and the mouth makes sucking movements. The baby usually emerges facing the mother's back, so that the head passes through the widest possible opening in the pelvic girdle. The head then turns, so that the upper and then the lower shoulder follows. There is a final contraction and baby slips out, still attached to the umbilical cord. The cord is then tied and cut---a painless operation because the cord is nerveless. The third stage of labor, in which the placenta, or afterbirth, is delivered, is usually complete about fifteen minutes after the birth.

i am on a chair, not a soap box.
LOL NO I mean that if he got his nose out of the Bible and read a book about animal biology instead he would know that animals do experience pain during labor, get off your soap box.
You inferred that the bible tells those things. you said: "omg the guy down there who says humans are the only creatures who experience pain during child birth". Then; "get his nose out of the effin bible and read an actual book.".
So no, you did say that.
I'm talking about what they said about how in "Genesis that pain in childbirth is punishment for Original sin. " - he said it not me. Maybe you should get YOUR head out of the "superior book of all books" which is indeed your own opinion not mine.
Basterd!
Yeah, they do, but they usually go off where there aren't any other animals around, bugging them, to have their young.
First off, the Bible teaches no such things, so don't blame the superior book of all books.
omg the guy down there who says humans are the only creatures who experience pain during child birth needs to get his nose out of the effin bible and read an actual book.
this was retarted talking about this no one cares you learn all this later on in your life you have no life FUCK YOU!
You have now entered . . . the twilight zone
dont animals experience pain??
I think other animals experience pain when they give birth, they are just better at hiding it. To show pain in, in nature, is to leave yourself vulnerable to preditorial attacks. Instinctually, animals tend to hide their pain.
I've heard chickens cry out when laying eggs... if it didn't hurt or cause some kind of discomfort, I doubt they would make a peep.
BULL SHIT!
yhh same
There should be more people with your maturity and with your heart japesjake ;)
Below is a response to what flavourL said.
I'm a guy, 16 at that, and what you said has truly touched my heart (I'm not being sarcastic). It gives me hope, though Obama is president, that someone out there understands the value of life as I do.
You know what is interesting? Humans are the only species that experience pain during childbirth. It is said in Genesis that pain in childbirth is punishment for Original sin.
