Twilight Sleep




Twilight sleep is an Amnesic condition characterized by insensibility to Pain without loss of Consciousness , induced by an injections of Morphine and Scopolamine , especially to relieve the pain of Childbirth . Also known as a " Zombie state." The use of this method fell out of favor because the relief of pain was often inadequate and there was a significant risk of Asphyxia for the baby.
