do other animals experience painful pregnancy/birth giving?

I’m not taking about pushing out the baby, as humans evolved large brains for our size so it’s a tight squeeze.

But the contractions and cramping is very painful for women, do other animals experience similar pain but just remain quiet?

The contractions need to be stronger to force the big head out. It’s all part of the same trade off.
