Welcome to this quick survey on childbirth (for everyone*)!

*(whether you are male, female, or otherwise, and whether or not you have any experience with childbirth, this survey is for you!)

It's just 9 short questions, so it should only take a minute.

The goal is to get an idea of how different people feel about the process of labour and giving birth.

The surveys are tailored to 3 different groups: females who have previously given birth, females who have not given birth, and non-females. To access the survey which is right for you, please click on one of the buttons below:

If you are biologically female and you have given birth, please

If you are biologically female and you have NOT given birth, please

If you are NOT biologically female, please

Thank you so much for your participation! =)

Remember the pressure of high school dances, how they seemed so scary and unknown? Later on in college, dancing became a social activity and much less intimidating. Some nights turned into sweaty fits of pure enjoyment. Waking up the next morning sore all over was probably as rewarding as it was painful. Now thinking about it, there were probably a couple calories burned since it became a pretty sweaty activity. Not worth thinking about it though, it was a fun night and that's what matters.
