Acquiring experience“When a woman gives birth, she must dig deep within herself and give more than she thought she had. The limits of his existence are pushed back. There comes a time when every woman thinks, “I can’t do this.” If she's lucky, she has a midwife, doula, or her mother to whisper in her ear, "You're doing it." In doing so, she becomes someone new: a mother. Pam Udy gives readers a striking sense of inspiration in her article in Midwifery Today magazine. Giving birth to a child was once a beautiful thing, a family event shared with those closest to the mother. These people surrounded her with love and support that made the entire birthing process truly unforgettable. Since the first hospital birth, having a baby has gone from an emotionally stimulating event to a daily affair that eliminates the bond of childbirth. Any woman who gives birth to her baby in a hospital misses out on the wonderful experience of a home birth. Women should allow themselves to experience childbirth in its most natural form before surrendering to the world of medicine and treating their labor as if it were something to be afraid of.

If the mother has slept less than four hours a night, the midwife promptly kicks the father in the butt and orders him to help the mother more with the baby so that she can get enough sleep. My midwife, Renata Hillman, is now considered family in the eyes of my husband and me. She is a sweet woman whom I adore and to whom I owe the success of my childbirth. I gave birth at home and I still relive the birth of my son from time to time. When I do it, I don't feel pain and I don't cringe at the memory. I smile instead. The day my son was born was, as exhausting as it was, the most wonderful day of my life, not only because it was the day I met my son, but also because my birth was an incredible experience worth getting excited about. What mother who gave birth in a hospital can say the same?
