Study Summary

This study seeks to further understand these three observations - (1) that the time period surrounding childbirth accelerates recovery from pain after injury (2) that this likely reflects dampened facilitating mechanisms and exaggerated inhibitory mechanisms, and (3) that stress may interfere with this protection. In this study the investigators will compare women within 2 weeks of delivery to age matched controls and anticipate that pain inhibition is increased after delivery, pain facilitation is decreased, and that there is a relationship between these pain responses and the degree of pre-existing stress.
