Natural Childbirth is More
Than Just Avoiding a Cesarean.

Do you think childbirth belongs in the hospital? Think about these questions for a moment. Do you need medical help eating a meal? Going to the bathroom? Being intimate with your partner?



Women giving birth is a natural process just like these other natural processes. Yes, sometimes you need help giving birth, and that is what hospitals are for. Just like sometimes you choke when you are eating, or have a bowel problem that needs attention. But by and large, in the majority of births, it works like it is supposed to. This happens best in a homebirth, where there is more privacy and less intervention.

Expectant couples need to explore the whole world of child birth together. There's a lot out there to read, watch and to discuss.The best way to help you work together is to keep the lines of communication open. Most of us have two ears, two eyes and one mouth. Which means we should listen and read twice as much as we talk!

Just think... our bodies are amazing. They can grow babies from two tiny cells to millions of cells all by themselves. If a body can do that, what makes you think that this same body can't birth that same baby? Human beings would have died out a long time ago if natural birth didn't work.

So before you sign up for that elective cesarean, take a moment and think about what your body can really do... what it was meant to do.


Childbirth is not a routine surgical procedure. Take a few moments and find out just what a wonderful process natural birth truly is.
