Summary

This study looks at whether changing positions with a peanut-shaped birthing ball can make labor faster and safer for first-time mothers who have an epidural. About 110 women will be randomly assigned to either use the peanut ball with scheduled position changes or receive standard care. Researchers will compare labor times, delivery method, and health of both mother and baby.
