Feeling Empowered

I have natural childbirth on my brain today. Just reflecting on ours and the stories of others. I want every baby to be born this way. Of course I know there are reasons for needing medical intervention. But if at all possible I wish this was the norm. I am loving teaching my Bradley classes. The group this series is so much fun! I will be attending one of the couple's births and can't wait.
I see how healthy Ayda is and contribute it to her drug free life and her Upper Cervical care. I can't stand when she is sick and I am thankful she has only been sick 3 times.
Back to Natural childbirth...women can do it. Yes there is pain and it is a lot of work. But you can do it! It's a shame society, or should I say drug companies, have convinced women that childbirth is unbarable. Our bodies know better than drug companies how to have babies. I cannot fully explain the joy I have knowing each sensation and piece of my labor. Feeling Ayda have the hiccups one more time before being born, her kicks as she made her way through the birth canal. Feeling in tune with her just minutes before we met her. I had tears in my eyes throughout my labor but not because of the pain. It was because I knew these were the last few times I would feel her inside me. Labor was a joy! And it can be for you too!
