Is She was born without Original Sin, then why did she have to go through the "pains of child birth"?
Because the "pain of child birth" was one of our punishments of Original Sin for Adam and Eve having eaten the forbidden fruit.
But Mary was born without Original Sin so why did she have to suffer?
The Bible calls Mary “full of grace” (Luke1:26). The Immaculate Conception means that Mary was preserved from original sin and redeemed by God’s grace from the moment of her conception. Unlike Jesus who was miraculously conceived without a human father, Mary was conceived in the normal way by her parents.
The official teaching of the Church says: “The most Blessed Virgin Mary was, from the moment of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege of almighty God and by virtue of the merits of Jesus Christ, Savior of the human race, preserved immune from all original sin.”
