A few people mentioned this in one of my previous posts.  Would you please provide an example of this?  I haven't heard of this before and I'm very curious.  TIA.

    Focal Point

    A focal point is merely something to look at in labor. It could be a special picture that your brought from home or a flower. It can also be a specific spot you found on the wall where you are giving birth. Some women like having a focal point, while others are not so impressed. A focal point is an external focus which may or may not seem natural to you. Another option is to look into the eyes of one of your support people, this eye to eye technique is great, particularly if you are feeling a bit panicked or overwhelmed. If you prefer, as many women do, to keep your focus internal and close your eyes, that works too!
