Free Online Childbirth Videos
Watching free online childbirth videos you might ask yourself why some women prefer birth without drugs? What is natural birth like?
In a natural birth as you see in the free online childbirth videos, the birthing woman, her supporters and partner trust in the woman's innate capacity to birth her baby. The mother views childbirth as an instinctive physiological process.
The woman follows the prompting of her body to find the most comfortable and appropriate position for her and the baby. In natural birth women tend to adopt a squatting or "all fours" position for the final stages of birth. I found these positions the best for labor. The squatting position is great. It uses the force of gravity to ease the baby descend and prevents any tears of the perineum and the internal tissues.
As we witness in free online childbirth videos in natural birth distractions and disturbances are kept to the minimum. The mother and her partner or attendant use simple self-help strategies to ease discomfort and to provide a sense of privacy and reassurance. The woman's own hormones - oxytocin and endorphin - stimulate the contractions and ease the pain.
Natural birth was the norm for thousands of years. How can we explain what we see in free online childbirth videos of natural birth? As Michel Odent writes in "Birth Reborn", women are far from helpless, lost or without 'expertise'.
Without being told, women giving birth naturally know how to hold and nurture their babies immediately after birth, as the newborn know how to seek their mother's breast. As Odent says there is some universal component in the behaviour of mother and newborn and "given the right kind of environment, where she could feel free and uninhibited -- a woman could naturally reach a level of response deeper within her than individuality, upbringing or culture."
