Accept Childbirth as It Is

There is no point in fighting childbirth. Remember it is beautifully designed. The more you see its beauty, the easier it will be.

If your world seems to be falling down around you, choose a positive path. Acceptance will make you walk the better path.

It might seem to you terrible or difficult, but the truth is we make childbirth terrible or difficult.

Once you concentrate your thoughts on the wonder of creation, on the magnificent efficiency of your body and fully trust it, you will have a birth of joy, which you would like to remember and share.

In childbirth just allow yourself to be, what you are. Put your all energy towards following the dynamics of the natural process and going with the flow. Do not do anything deliberately. Do not allow outside voices to make you violate your body.

No one but you knows the perfect posture, the perfect timing, the perfect way to go. Be in control, have faith and lo! A miracle is there for you.

Accepting childbirth does not mean allowing others to decide for you. It means allowing nature to do its work in the best way.

Once you accept what is, you are free to move to the next stage. Once you quit fighting, nature starts rewarding you.
