| This is the birth of my second son, delivered by my big sister (whos a RN) because the midwife ran late (or the baby came fast) she got there right before I began pushing, but went ahead and let my sister finish up. I see this video now and I still don't believe that I made it through so wonderfully. One things for sure, I remembered to breath (which is the most important part). I had thoughts of positive affirmations that I could do it, and that I am a woman created by the Divine light and that we were not meant to suffer, yet to overcome. We are the ones who give birth because we can handle it, and men are there (supposed to be) for support, mentally, physically and emotionally. I would do it again. I hope this inspires more woman to challenge their own strength and defy the common misconception of birth. I chose to give birth at home for the peaceful atmosphere. My last birth was in a hospital and completely rushed. At home I felt relaxed and comfortable. I hope my sisters realize their own inner strength and abilitites. Peace and Blessings. |
