The investigators will use a commercially available consumer-grade virtual reality (VR) device and nitrous oxide, a standard of care therapy for laboring women desiring non-epidural analgesic, to determine satisfaction with pain relief with each therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if non-invasive distracting devices (Virtual Reality headsets) are non-inferior to conventional therapy (nitrous oxide) for addressing maternal needs during labor who desire non-epidural pain relief.
