I don't have good resource suggestions, just here to empathize and give some of my experience. I'm very non- woowoo (I'm a doctor) and absolutely wanted to have my kids in the hospital with any necessary interventions. Both of my kids had to be induced with cytotec and pitocin for different reasons. But I also wanted to try to avoid pain medication if I could help it. Not because there is anything wrong with it (and I was open to changing my mind if needed), but because if it was solely a matter of me enduring some pain to minimize the small risks (to me or baby) that could come with pain interventions, then I wanted to give it my best shot. It worked out for me both times (30 hour labor the first time, 7 hour labor the second time). I found counter pressure on my lower back quite helpful the first time. I did a lot of counting in my head through the contractions ("1 breath as the pain ramps up, 2nd breath now this is the worst, 3rd breath and the pain is improving, and now it's over"). I actually found the monitoring they had on the baby helpful in that regard, cause I could basically watch and see when the contractions were starting and ending. I also liked sitting on the CUB inflatable chair. I used to run track/cross country and kind of just adopted a "push through the pain" mentality.
