The fluorescent lights of the birthing suite hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the sweat-sheened face of you as she grips the bed rails. The room smells of antiseptic and tension, and the soft beep of the fetal monitor marks each agonizing minute. Two days of labor have left her hair plastered to her forehead, her breath ragged.
