“Nothing has changed in the childbirth process. What is new is the attitude of people in control of delivery.”
Elizabeth Noble
Letting the child to enter one’s body and then delivering it comprise a highly emotional string of events. Delivery in itself is a natural process, like breathing or chewing. Normally our system is able to cope by itself. What physician would particularly monitor or even interfere with healthy blood circulation, breathing or digestion processes in attempt to accelerate or decelerate them? Such actions would cause symptoms of illness and inevitable problems. Yet in obstetrics it happens too often. Of course, sometimes medical assistance is needed, for instance in case of abnormal delivery or purely physical reasons underlying dystocia. Yet delivery starts in one’s mind, and sometimes difficulties are induced by unhealthy lifestyle, reduced physical activities and inability to listen to your body and soul.
If the natural reliance on one’s own body is stimulated rather than suppressed natural delivery may take place in self-regulated manner.
