The Bachelor's Alex Nation shares her labour
Welcome to the world: The Bachelor star Alex Nation has shared a raw video of herself in labour as she celebrates two weeks with her newborn son Maxwell by her side
Alex, dressed in her underwear, appeared calm as she was stroked by her loving partner in the delivery room.
The room was decorated with soothing candles, while calming music played in the background.
Alex revealed she had used a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) machine during her birth, which is an alternative to painkilling medication.
The small box is worn on the body, and attached by wires stuck to the skin. Small electrical pluses are transmitted to the body, which can help to ease the pain.
