5 Reasons Why I Chose Natural Pregnancy & A Natural Childbirth

(Before It's News)

When I became preggers, I instantly knew I wanted it all natural, no doctor, no medical equipment. I shared the idea with my husband and oh glory! He was 100% on the same page with me. I felt super supported and protected in my decision, and set out on my journey of natural pregnancy and natural childbirth. Here are my main reasons why I chose to do it this way:

1. Because I knew what I did not want.

And that is how media is portraying childbirth as some sort of war-apocalypse event when a thousand machines are hooked up to you, needles stuck in you, 10 strangers in the room, the doctor is screaming at you to push, and then, when the baby comes out, it is taken somewhere, and you see it only to feed it. None of it seemed acceptable to me. First off, I hate being poked by needles and other doctorly devices, secondly why should I be surrounded by strangers at the most vulnerable (in all my life possibly) moment. And lastly, I did not want to be separated from my newborn at all. Especially right after birth. All that just seemed so counter-intuitive and forced.
