** New Birth Story on my website 💜 Link in comments
This amazing women shares the story of her unplanned free birth with a surprise at the end! It shows how capable we are to just give birth! All the perfect planning and visions of our birth sometimes don’t even matter when it comes down to it, it’s the internal journey, the inner calm and trust that makes all the difference. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and that this helps to spread positive birth awareness even further 💜

¿Sabías que antes del 1600 las Mujeres Occidentales daban a luz en cuclillas, sentadas y de pie?
Esto cambió cuando el rey Luis XIV de Francia dispuso que para poder él presenciar el nacimiento de sus hijos, sus mujeres debían dar a luz acostadas.

Aunque esa postura hace más difícil y doloroso el parto, pronto se generalizó, y los médicos franceses tuvieron que inventar los fórceps para evitar algunas de sus consecuencias. En poco tiempo se multiplicaron los instrumentos obstétricos, y se llegó a creer que el parto siempre era una urgencia que exigía atención médica para que fuera sin complicaciones.

Cada vez se populariza más la idea de que la mujer debe guiarse por su propio instinto en lo que se refiere al parto. El número de futuras madres que optan por el parto natural -entendido como aquel parto en el que la intervención externa es la mínima posible- va en aumento.

El obstetra francés Michel Odent, uno de los defensores más notables del parto natural, afirma que la parturienta no debe atenerse a ninguna regla, sino obedecer a su instinto, que la hace experta en dar a luz. Odent daba a sus pacientes entera libertad para proceder como quisiesen, e incluso les permitía sentarse en una tina de agua tibia para aliviar el dolor de las contracciones uterinas. De ahí surgió la idea del parto en agua.

Los conocimientos actuales de fisiología han demostrado que el parto vertical -de pie o en cuclillas- permite que el nacimiento del bebé sea más rápido y menos traumático. Sin embargo no existe una postura universal para dar a luz. En las comunidades más primitivas, las parturientas primerizas se guían por el consejo de mujeres más experimentadas.

Las mujeres somos tan jodidamente mágicas. Dos bebés. Un útero. Una placenta. Dos cordones. Suficientes células, energía y fuerza para hacer 2 pequeños que nacieron en casa. 🙌🤰💟 Tan inspirador y un recordatorio para todas las mujeres de que puedes hacer más de lo que piensas. Eres fuerte y capaz. Eres poderoso y creador de vida. Eres un maravilloso ser mágico. ¡No lo olvides!

We often get questions about these sort of things.
Can I birth in a trailer- yes
Can I birth in an apartment- yes
My house is a bit messy- so
My neighbors might hear me- so
You can birth any where…in any position…with anyone you choose to be there. Your midwife is there for support.

There is nothing more true ❤ birth is beautiful when it is trusted and when we trust ourselves.
Even if you learn all the natural birthing techniques in the world, nothing will make much of a difference unless you fully understand and believe this quote 100%
We are made to birth, it is primal, it is instinctual, leave it alone and it is magical ❤

I am very excited to finally share my Doula business with you all. It has been a long held dream of mine to support women through pregnancy and childbirth, one that I put on hold for years so that I could have my own babies, now I am ready!
I have chosen the name Empowering Birth Stories because the stories we hear can have such an impact on how we birth. It is incredibly important to read and hear empowering and positive birth stories while pregnant. Stories that show exactly how positive birth is possible, that describe the emotional journey as well as the physical and that explain how women found strength and calm during the most intense moments of their labours.
I believe in positive birth not perfect birth and that the preparation you do in pregnancy will have more of an impact than the circumstances of the birth itself. Every women is capable of having a positive experience with the right support and guidance.
My website www.empoweringbirthstories.com has more information and it also has a birth story section, that has my 5 and I'm hoping to add more soon, as a resource for all pregnant women. Please feel free to like and share my page
