WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR BABY'S BIRTH

1/3/2019

 
who is responsible for your baby's birth?
This is a very important question to ask? Is it your medical caregiver or you, the parents? 

The answer is YOU.

It is up to you to choose where to give birth. Will it be a hospital, a birth centre or at home (read more about this in my blog:  How to decide where to give birth: what are the options). You need to decide what type of childbirth care you want/need to have. This is either midwifery care, or obstetric care. Midwives will take care of women opting for a vaginal birth. This can start either spontaneously or it may be induced. A woman using obstetric care will usually have a more medicalised labour.

But here are some things to ponder when it comes to your baby's birth.
  • Birth is a natural process.
  • A mother's instinct is right. Follow how you want your baby's birth to be.
  • Focus on the birth you want. Let your caregivers be the watchful eye for any deviations. You keep your mind on your preferences.
  • Choose a birth partner who will be your voice and will support your wishes. Someone who will be strong during later labour, when you are in a 'zone' of focus and concentration of the job at hand.
  • Make sure that your caregivers observe informed consent. They need to explain to you the risks and benefits of all choices. Only then can you make an informed choice.
  • Taking responsibility for your baby's birth is both the external and internal factors. Make sure that you are feeling positive and confident about labour and birth before the big day - it will make all the difference.

If you are not confident about what labour and birth may bring, speak to your midwife. You may also want to consider investing in an antenatal course such as hypnobirthing. It will arm you will all the information that you need about what to expect. It will give you lots of tools and tips to keep you calm, confident and comfortable during labour too.
