How do you feel about home birth? When it comes to most peoples minds they most likely think that is just horde, and that they world never even think of baring there child that way. After reading this I hope that you will change you mind, or reconsider it. home birth is better then the hospital in many ways, and i'm going to share with you many of those ways with you. In the articular ( Midwifes alliance) is says, (Journal of Midwifery & Women’s Health (JMWH), a landmark study** confirms that among low-risk women, planned home births result in low rates of interventions without an increase in adverse outcomes for mothers and babies. This study, which examines nearly 17,000 courses of midwife-led care, is the largest analysis of planned home birth in the U.S. ever published.The …show more content…
results of this study, and those of its companion article about the development of the MANA Stats registry, confirm the safety and overwhelmingly positive health benefits for low-risk mothers and babies who choose to birth at home with a midwife. At every step of the way, midwives are providing excellent care. This study enables families, providers and policymakers to have a transparent look at the risks and benefits of planned home birth as well as the health benefits of normal physiologic birth.
the study shows not only that it is better for the babies but for the heath and cost benefit.)There you have it we are off to a good start. I would understand that if you are not feeling any more confident about a home birth, but this is just the start of all of this. So keep reading this and follow me, lets get started.
Why choose home birth, I understand that home birth is not for everyone, but is just might be for you. In the articular ( resones why home birth) it is going to tell you five very good reasons why you should choose home birth Reason #1 – Home Comforts So, you’ve just given birth to a beautiful baby. You’re tired, and thirsty. Where else other than home can you have a hot cup of tea in your favorite mug, made just the way you like it? Once you’ve glugged that sweet nectar down, it’s time for a shower. Right there waiting for you are all of your toiletries, clean clothes, towels, washcloths, everything. You don’t have to think about digging them out of a bag, and putting the wet washcloths and towels in a plastic bag to transport home. You don't even have to bother tidying up after your shower if you don’t want to – you can do it later, or get your
partner to do it. And then comes the best bit – curling up in your own bed, with your partner and beautiful new baby. Trust me, nothing can beat that. Reason #2 – Distraction My home birth was very fast, so there was no time for distraction. My labor was intense from the get-go, so it needed all of my focus. However, labor is sometimes a long hard slog and being at home helps distract you from that. You can watch TV, DVD’s, listen to music as loud as you like, take a bath or shower, cook a meal for you and your birth team if you wish… the list goes on. In hospital, you are forced to remember at all times that you are a patient, and that you are in labor. In many other cultures, the laboring woman continues with her normal daily tasks until she is no longer able to – this has to be preferable to laboring in a hospital room, wondering what is to come. Reason #3 – Control When discussing my birth with my midwife prior to the event, she made a very good point – in a hospital, you are a patient. The midwives and nurses are the ones in charge – they will have strict protocol to adhere to, and lots of women and babies in their care. Things have to run a certain way, and you will have to fit in with that. Some hospitals are more lenient than others, and it depends very much on the team that are on shift when you happen to go into labor, but know that in a hospital, you are a number giving birth to another number. However, at a home birth, the midwives know that the woman is very much in charge of her birthing. The midwives consider themselves to be guests in her home, and will behave accordingly. A good home birth midwife will be there to support, encourage, inform and be ready to take charge in those just-in-case situations that, although rare, do happen. My midwife told me that many women in the past had asked her to wait in another part of the house, just in case, until the baby was ready to be born. Nowhere other than home will you have this much control over your birth. Reason #4 – Privacy Those of us who have read a lot about natural birth would have heard of Sphincter Law, the term coined by the famous Ina May Ga skin and her colleagues. This term refers to how sphincters (such as the anus and the cervix) behave in certain situations. Ever tried to poop comfortably in front of a group of people you have only just met? If you have, I bet you weren’t successful. And if you were successful, I doubt you enjoyed the experience. However, women giving birth in a hospital are expected to do something very similar. In order for a birth to be straightforward and comfortable, the laboring woman must be very relaxed. She has to feel that she is able to entirely let go and do whatever she needs to do to cope. Very few women are able to let go and relax in this way in front of complete strangers. The cervix is a sphincter that must be relaxed to work properly, just like the anus. Just think of the amount of women you probably know that have had interventions during their labors due to ‘failing to progress’. I wonder how many of those women would have progressed just fine, had they been in a comfortable and private environment? Reason #5 – Quality of Care, Here in the UK, at a home birth attended by NHS midwives, two midwives must attend the birth. Usually, one midwife will attend alone until she feels that the baby is on it’s way, then she will call the second midwife to attend. One for mum and one for baby. At a busy hospital, the chances are that your midwife will be looking after several other laboring women, and therefore won’t be able to spend half as much time with you as she would like. You will be checked on intermittently, sometimes every half an hour or maybe longer, depending on how busy the labor ward is. You may find yourself being coerced into accepting continuous foetal monitoring (to make up for the lack of presence of a midwife) which will render you unable to move from the bed – and therefore more likely to require pain relief, as you won’t be able to utilize helpful coping techniques such as walking around and soaking in a birthing pool. Staying mobile during labor can be important to helping labor progress for some women, so it’s no wonder that many women who find themselves strapped to a machine end up with epidurals and assisted deliveries or C-sections. If, your not fully convinced by what i have already given you, well then just keep reading.
...other can move around more freely and find positions that help her stay comfortable during labor. Natural child birth is also a very intimate process. Your partner can be involved in the process as you work together to manage your pain (2013, November).
Let me start with the fact that Mac is lonely. He whines all the time, you even say so yourself. Well, that is simply because, as www.dogbreed.info.com puts it, dogs are pack animals, meaning they have an instinct to live among a group. It is not natural for dogs to be alone and it can sometimes be hard for them to accept it. Yes, I’ve done my research. It would be such a help to animals if we adopted them. If we did this, we would also benefit. I have a list of the steps you need to take to complete an adoption at EDCR.
Let me begin with this. Public breastfeeding is NOT exhibitionism. It is simply the act of feeding a baby. Nonetheless, women are still facing widespread discrimination in public for doing so.
Before watching The Business of Being Born in class this week, I never really thought about in home or natural births. I learned that American women are losing the right to have a natural birth. More and more hospitals are pushing for caesarian surgery during labor when it is not necessary and it is not as safe for the mother or child. Hospitals are encouraging these unsafe procedure to make more money. Hospitals want to get people in and get them out as quickly as possible. Medical professionals frown upon home births because they find it to be unsafe. This is almost laughable considering how much safer the home births are compared to the standard hospital birth in America. However, I had some concerns with the movie as well. As a film about women’s reproduction, they did not really accept the other choices women may make concerning their bodies. I know that this film was specifically comparing home births to hospital births, but I feel that they should have been more careful with the language that they used about women and
The American dream was owning a house with a white picket fence. Now this dream is impossible. Individuals and families find it more difficult to find a decent home to rent in a suitable living area. According to Huffington Post, the hourly wage needed to afford a two bedroom apartment in California is at least $26 an hour. This is more than triple the minimum wage. Eviction, relocation, and inflation are the common keywords that associate with affordable housing. I 'm hoping to persuade you to support affordable housing for all. Today, I will be discussing, one, inflation of the housing market that needs to decrease, two, eviction from homes, three having to move to communities far from their work site.
Thesis : The United States of America should adopt the law that allows abortion clinics to be regulatively open, operated, and accessible to women at large numbers; or otherwise an abortion is to be included and performed in hospital.
...dbirth once she think her in safe condition. The long established role of TBA in community and other local beliefs and norms also hamper delivery at health centers. At this point, what I believe would work is that we should engage all the self explanatory models of public health workers, clinicians and local community, and then sort out the most effective interventions for safe delivery among rural mothers.
Websters dictionary defines abortion as “:a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetus. (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/abortion) Abortion is wrong and should be abolished. If we kill criminals for killing people why dont we kill people for killing babies? Abortion should not be allowed for any reason in todays society because its like killing a person killing is wrong everyone can agree on this. I am going to tell you why abortion should be illegal in the united States and especialy everywhere
“Adopting one child won 't change the world: but for that child, the world will change.” (Unknown)(Buzzle.com). Adoption can take place in multiple shapes, forms, and fashions. You can adopt from a local adoption agency, or adopt from an orphanage half way around the world. You can adopt a child whose parents are no longer living, or you could adopt from a young mother who is not ready to raise a child. You can adopt one child who has touched your heart from an orphanage in Uganda, or a set of triplets being moved around from house to house in foster care. There are still further motivations and reasons for adopting. What if you and your spouse are unable to become pregnant? The desire to be parents does not diminish with the lack of
Adopting a child can be a long lengthy process and a challenge to any person it’s a process that consumes time, energy, and patience. There are several steps in order to adopt a child: research, the decision, training, application, home study(where department of human services goes into your home to see if your household meets all requirements and has a mentally healthy family), waiting for a match, supervision, then the final adoption completion. These steps can consume years worth of time and energy. However, when the adoption is completed it’s all well worth it because you 're giving a chance to a child who would not have the love the unique bond you two have.
Well, this is my first official blog post! Today, I’m gonna talk a little bit about my favorite surgery, the cesarean section!
If you are a person like myself, when you think of an abortion your heart melt. I always heard stories of abortions and the affects it can have on your body. You might think to yourself, why do people do such a thing. I remember how I use to feel so distress about abortions. I couldn’t not understand why people would want to harm an innocent child. At the end of the day we never know what someone is going through. However, I do believe in free will and living for you. Therefore, I would have to agree with pro- life (which agrees that everyone deserves a chance at life) for you have many options of birth control, adoption available and every fetus should have the right to life.
Researchers and scientists should eradicate the practice of altering an embryos genetic makeup other than for eliminating any hereditary diseases passed to the child from a parent, as choosing and enhancing other characteristics is a form of playing God, due to the natural development of a child and their genetic code getting transformed by scientific means.
Imagine for a minute that you and your husband have been faithfully trying to have a child. After several attempts, you are successful. A small being finally begins blooming inside of you. After nearly three months of pregnancy, you go to your doctor for the regular checkup to test the current development of the baby. The doctor explains to you that there is a new screening test that is being done to more accurately test the developing fetus’ health. This test determines whether the baby will be born with a disability, disease or some other type of impairment. She states it is very common, accurate and safe. Being the young, loving, nervous parents that you are, agree to it. What harm can it do? If the test comes back positive for a disorder, however, such as Down syndrome, you are left to make a very difficult situation. Will you carry the baby to term, even though he will be born unhealthy or do you abort the fetus, therefore saving it from a life of pain? Many couples are in this same exact boat, and most of
A. Attention Getter: The amount of teenagers that get pregnant around the age of 15 through 17 is quite concerning. Even though most Teenage Pregnancies are unintentional, it still means that there are chances of them becoming pregnant.
