However, considerable training is required to inhale the gas. The gas is provided in combination with oxygen via a breathing circuit and a mask. The nurse will train you to hold the mask and breath the gases when you begin sensing uterine contraction. As you breath gases throughout the contraction, nitrous oxide provides some pain reief. You take away the mask as the uterine contraction pain becomes less intense towards the end of the contraction. You breath room air normally before the next contractions sets in and the process of inhalation is begun all over again. This is a process that requires training and your active participation. The effect of nitrous oxide on the baby is minimal to none significant.
