HUMANizing Birth

Tell a man that he could possibly have a heart attack when making love. Then tell him that it would be safer for him to come to the hospital and make love while being monitored by a physician. Do you think a doctor coming in to take his blood pressure and monitor his heart every 10 minutes would affect his performance?

This is the question Saraswathi Vedam asks when giving an analogy about women and their birth choices.

In many cases, women birth in an unfamiliar environment and are separated from their loved ones during labor. In an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people, women are expected to perform at their very best and deliver on someone else’s time.

Even zoo animals do not have to experience such a thing.

But why do so many mothers?
