How birth censorship contributes to society's lack of birth education

We have lost the sense of our ability to give birth without medical intervention and in scenarios other than the ‘norm’ (hospital birth). We are uneducated when it comes to active birthing positions and the power of the mind during birth.

When birth is removed from day to day conversation it creates a feeling that it is bad, painful and something to be feared.

Our Journey - Loss, homebirth and a valuable lesson on regret...

"I was alone at an ultrasound, with no one to hold my hand, when the sonographer put his hand on my arm and simply said “I’m sorry…”, I thought, sorry for what? He said it as though there was only one outcome.

It was the most definitive answer I had been given my entire pregnancy, it just wasn’t the answer I was searching for."
