Despite labor, this mother does not stop swinging on her hips

This woman has her own way of dealing with the pain of a birth. She dances!

TO DANCE?! While you're in labor right now? That should sound like something crazy to many women. But for Yuki Nishizawa, part of her birthing ritual is to fight the pain.

A video of the expectant mother shows her how she translates her own little choreography to the 90s song "Tootsie Roll" of the 69 Boyz. Yuki clearly sees that she is in the midst of labor. But even as she notices "My amniotic sac just burst!" she can not make this stop her feet. Instead , she keeps dancing to distract herself from the pain and somehow trying to think of something else.

So she not only amuses the nurse in the background, who is amused by her dance routine, but also her husband Connell Cloyd, who has recorded the whole thing. "I know that as a husband I should not laugh, but she really wanted to get famous, that's the way to do it now: Dance the 'Tootsie Roll' while you're in labor ."

Yuki has already achieved fame with her performance. Over the past two days, the video has been viewed on her husband's Facebook page over 5.7 million times.
