It’s really hard to be a mommy especially when you’re pregnant with your first baby. Just like experiencing anything for the first time, you will really have a difficult time trying to puzzle out what to do when you’re pregnant and your thoughts will wander from the time you’re carrying a new life up to the time when it’s ready to be introduced to the real world. So you ask some of your friends for any pre-natal tips. You go to your OB-Gynecologist for pre-natal, for more pregnancy advices and tips like pregnancy nutrition so that you can learn what to feed to yourself thereby feeding your baby inside of you with the right nutrients. A pregnant woman has to know what type of diet is best for her and her baby. It is very important to do so. What’s more, a mother, whether a first-timer or a “veteran” should always learn how to deal with pregnancy labor and she needs to learn or re-learn (in the case of the “veteran”) the right way to give birth.

However, these kinds of things can’t only be learned by going to your doctor or the OB-Gynecologist. During pre-natal, bear in mind that you only need to go to your doctor once a month and so, what are you going to do between those time intervals? You have to constantly feed yourself with all the required information about how to go through this stage the right way and the only way to learn is to find a book guide or any kind of learning tools so while you are staying at home, you’re constantly learning. And even those who are still looking forward to have her first baby, it’s also important that you should also find a book guide that can help you learn things like how to increase fertility, what to do if you are already an expectant mother and much, much more.

Remember, constant learning is important much more if you’re carrying another life inside of you. Don’t wait for the next visit to your OB-Gynecologist. You can learn more while doing it by yourself right in the comforts of your own home with the help of various learning tools like book guides for mommies.

Having your child in the home? Who would even think of such a thing? Didn’t that just happen when there weren’t many hospitals and doctor’s had to go to the home to deliver babies?

Not so.  There are a growing number of women who have discovered the benefits of having your baby at home, or a homebirth as it is commonly called.

The practice of homebirths is usually called midwifery.  Although they are usually not doctors or nurses, people who are in this profession are professionally regulated.  I myself have seen the steady rise of homebirths through my practice as a San Diego certified midwife.

The people, generally women, who perform this line of work are called homebirth midwives.  Midwives is a more common term that people are familiar with and means a person who attends childbirth and provides support during labor and delivery.

Now a midwife is usually not a nurse or doctor because in general a midwife generally believes that pregnancy and births are natural events and should be allowed to proceed naturally without drugs.  This is contrasted with the medical model which believes that pregnancy and delivery should be accompanied by medicine to assist and improve the situation.

With that aside, lets look at why a lot of women are having babies at home rather than hospitals.  What are the reasons why women are choosing homebirths?

First, with the midwife’s continued presence, the labor time can actually be reduced.  Most women don’t realize that the use of pain medications although seemingly helpful in regards to pain, actually slows the labor down.  This in reality causes the pain and the labor to last much longer.

Second, midwifery practices actually causes a reduction in the need for forceps and other devices in a delivery.  The process of naturally allowing the birh and delivery to occur is what causes the reduction of the need for those devices.

Third, the possiblity of c-section deliveries are actually reduced.  Most c-sections happen when during labor, it was thought that a natural birth process was not possible.  Either because of the safety of the baby was in mind or the safety of the mother.  When in reality the complication was created because the natural birth process wasn’t allowed to happen.

These are just 3 of the benefits of having a natural birth at home.  There are a lot more benefits, but I am positive most women who are pregnant would say these are 3 huge benefits. 

  So even though some might call it strange to have a child at home, recent studies indicate that allowing a natural birth to happen is much safer for the mom and the baby.  With over 300 births attended as a San Diego midwife, this has proven to be the case time and time again.
