@SuperKingdawit a baby being born under water cannot die underwater by drowning, since the baby has been living in water for 9-months in its mothers stomach. Once it has reached air, it can no longer live in water without drowning, it must breath air.
@SuperKingdawit k, 1st of all "chick" im a female, not a dude. Also I was not saying YOU have to advice anyone in your family to do this method, which I believe would make it easier for both the woman and child. It is easier for the woman because it helps the baby come out faster. It is easier for the baby because it wont feel to much pain since it is easily slipping out because of the water. However, though this method may seem easier, there are some risk just like giving birth in a bed in air.
@SuperKingdawit Also, the baby can not drown since the cord provides it with oxygen that comes from its mother. The baby gets everything from its mother from the cord when the baby is in her.

i had a natural birth at home and i think its perfectly natural and it was my third child and an all natural birth way easier than laboring on my back at the hospital per the drs. convenience also i went to the hospital 2x that day and was allowed to leave as my right when my contractions were 7 minutes apart. and i weigh over 300lbs. and was calm as all get out having my baby with only my mother helping me who has no medical experience at all. my childs beautiful and healthy thank you very much
What is wrong with you??? What if something went wrong?? Or if the baby needs help from REAL doctors! That should be against the law to give birth at home!
1. Yes, it's less painful to have a baby in water.
2. No, the baby doesn't try to breathe until it's out in the air.
3. Any birth at home, water or not, has far less bacteria than at the hospital.
4. The midwives change the water often to rid it of anything gross that might find its way in.
Geez, guys, do your research before you criticize. Laboring on your back on dry land is one of the most painful things you can do to yourself. It's common because it's more convenient for the doctor.
@buttonnose88 As we know that giving birth at home is safer when it comes bacteria, but for any reason... Like baby's head getting stuck under the mother's pelvic bone (just an example) the mother must be taken to the OR by the OB/GYN (not a midwife) so the can do C-Section... A child being expose to bacteria is much better than the child's heart rate dropping and mother bleeding to death. Bacteria is something that can be fixed by a few anitbiotics,
@buttonnose88 but a birth defect is something that is permanent at most time... Honestly this is more about personal opinion... I rather have my kid in the hospital, than have him at home... But the ones who want to have their child at home just make sure you know that complications seem very less. good luck to everyone.
Ok so I have to ask this, is it any less painful having a baby in water? I mean, I've got a sister that had all of her kids in the hospital and one sister that had her kid in water. And I've always wondered, does the water help with the pain?
@Bienville25 That actually happens quite frequently, usually they have someone next to the pool with a skimmer to skim out the poos. LOL, funny, but true.
@TheDavidG54 That's disgusting. Why would anyone want to have a water birth and spend hours marinating in blood, mucus, turds, amnioitic fluid, and various other body juices. The bacteria content in these pools must be astronomically high!
LOL, you should see what's in the food you eat. This is the human condition of life. I'm not afraid of my own coodies, but being in a hospital surrounded by MRSA would scare me.
@TheDavidG54 Also, what if the mom has diarrhea and pushes really hard and turns the entire pool into beef stew? Are the midwives suppose to stay in the pool? Do they change the water?
I'm so surprised! How come she's not in pain? It is very beautiful.. but growing up around people telling me that childbirth is the most painful thing a woman will ever experience makes this video amazing to me.
i dont understand about that but i think birth in water is not the best was cos the abby breath water while is still going out... that could be dangerous no??
@fernandanra Babies do not breath in the womb so why would they try to breath under water? The baby would not take it's first breath until out of the water.
@lilshawty218 they are underwater in ur womb... they dont need to breathe until they take their first breath... and even after that they can naturally hold their breath when put underwater
What a great smile momma! I loved how even with the cord wrapped around his neck no one was freaking out- they just handled it and let mom and dad have their time with baby! Great birth and great job momma! I gave birth to my first child in the same position and I liked how the midwife passed baby underneath momma so they didn't have to cut the cord to get baby onto mom.
@TheDragonsmile i wonder if it doesnt matter that there is a cord around its head because the baby is still underwater and doesnt need air until its taken its first breath... whereas if its not a underwater birth the child takes its first breath or tries to as soon as its nose shows befor they have time to get to the cord
@afrochick2000 I think that is correct! That is one of the reasons that waterbirth is safe because baby doesn't have the reflex to breathe untill air hits baby's body.
All I had at my birth was my mum and my midwife nurse who was also my god-mother and it was just us in the room at the hospital and I only used light gas during the last hour and managed very well but you truly inspire me! :D What a wonderful birth! And gorgeous baby as well. :) Congratulations!
@Hellokitty9276 did you ask yourself why it's not dead in his moms body??? it has the umbilical cord.... and this cord is "working" as long as the placenta (afterbirth) still is inside the mothers body... that's why the child is completely provided with everything it needs... just as if it still was inside the stomach!
This was beautiful! That is one of the cutest babies I have ever seen. I plan on water birthing my future children. It seems so natural and just calm. Thank you for sharing such an intimate moment with everyone!
Awwwww... it is so beautifull and natural!!!I'm pragnat too and i wish that my daughters delivery-day will be looking just the same as yours!! Best for you!
My god, why are people who claim to be registered nurses being so nasty? I always thought that nurses became nurses because they had great compassion for people. However, it seems that for some, $ is the motivation these days, not helping people. I am sorry that people have ruined this lady's beautiful page by making snyde comments. By the way, I don't see midwives on the pages of women who choose hospital births slamming them. Nurses, what a slap i the face to your profession. Shame on you!
@nikitababie100 While the baby has his umbilical chord uncutted he's reciving the oxygen through it. he just feels like in the placenta with the amniotic liquid.
without being mean, it doesn't look as though your child was "welcomed into the world by the hands of his parents". The father appears to be trying to hold his baby's head wherever possible whilst the midwife pulls it out. Just my opinion.... still a lovely video though!
to EVERYONE saying this is dangerous for the baby to be under water, you are WRONG. my friend just had her son at home in water. as long as the cord has not been cut the baby is still using the mother's air to breathe. DUH. do reasearch. you just assume. anyway, this was beautiful mommy! you are so brave. i plan on having my baby at the hospital with meds. i really couldn't do this. it will be my first. :)
@smapp88 you should watch this one... (put this into the YouTube search box: VTS_01_1.VOB)
it might change your mind about the drugs... your mind is the most powerful 'painkiller' on the planet -- try Hypnobabies!! the pain is only 'pain' if you believe it hurts.... believe me - I've had three w/ no drugs... ;-D
@angelsgurl -- the nasty comments are very unprofessional... you are certainly not invoking respect from anyone that way...
That was a beautiful video. Thanks for sharing and for helping to educate others about the benefits of a non-hospital birth. We really need a re-education revolution in this country regarding childbirth. The medical profession is poorly trained, over-medicalizing birth and treating it as an emergency waiting to happen, which gives them more business because it causes women to doubt themselves and not trust their own bodies. Midwives need to take back their rightful places in the birth process!
isn't he unable to breath when he's underwater ? please explain it 2 me . and by the way the moment you were holding your child with your husband was one of the sweetest things ive ever seen
This was a badly managed waterbirth, waterbirths should be hands off completely!! I couldn't count how many hands were fiddling with the baby before it was even born, BAD! Also the fact that the baby kept being dunked in and out of the water whilst unwrapping the cord- BAD, being stimulated under water but not able to breathe! Waterbirths are beautiful when managed properly, this wasn't, explains why the baby had poor colour and condition at first. I'm a midwife so know what i'm talking about x
@sarahlou2289 You're a midwife? Great! I wanted to ask, I'm having a baby due in Feb. I was thinking about waterbirth. But I can't have any painkillers if I do right?
Hey, this is a lovely video, I am all for waterbirths and natural birth, considering a waterbirth for my baby due next year...ALTHOUGH...I thought no part of the baby was to be brought out of the water before the face (mouth, to breathe) so that baby doesnt take a breath? Then after baby has had his face out the water he is promptly dropped back under?....could he not have taken his first breath under water? Not a criticism here, just a question, like I said, I am considering one myself..
The video was beautiful. The baby was fine. The mother was fine. Another successful water birth. Congratuations to the family. This is a triumphant occasion. Not a fail for the hospital because they're not getting paid for this one. In the end only life is important. Stop trying to beat each other up with your knowledge. Stop putting each other down. When you learn to put aside your opinions and focus on what's really important in the end everyone's happy and no one's feelings are hurt. <3
And you know what? Hospitals (some of them anyway) set up to cater to the mother's ideal birth setting. The hospital I'll go to for an alternate to my waterbirth does that. If things aren't right I can still try for a waterbirth, just in ahospital setting incase something doesn't go right. Why does everyone have to try and be better than everyone? Why does everyone always have to prove they're right? it's not about being right. It's about the baby and mother being healthy. THATS IT.
It's like this. If a woman chooses to be in a hospital with drugs and doctors etc. that's her choice. If she chooses to be at home when she has her baby that's all well and good too. The point is that no matter what the baby and the mother make it out HEALTHY AND ALIVE. Forget the rest of the politics. So the doctors and nurses don't get paid unless women go to hospitals to have babies. Oh well. You make more than the national average every year anyway. You'll be fine if a few stay home.
I've read the comments back and forth between the lot of people commenting on this video and I'll say this. I'm 20 years old and having my first baby in June. I myself don't believe in the constriction of a hospital birth so I'm opting for a natural birth at home with a midwife. That is IF everything is on the up and up in the start of my 8th month. If I have to for the sake of my baby I will go to the hospital. But only if I absolutely have to.
that was really beautiful. i find it fascinating that you dont even have to cut the chord right away. is it true that the blood keeps pulsing into the baby for 15 minutes after birth, so the baby is actually getting all the oxygen he needs from the umbilical chord at that time?
This was absolutely beautiful to watch. I know a midwife- she uses the APGAR scale. She has delivered over 400 babies- mostly in birthing tubs just like this. There are few instances needed that she had to take the delivery to a hospital- in those cases- everyone came out happy and alive. She has yet to lose a baby or have a baby develop any health problems due to how it was birthed. Someday- this is how I plan on bringing mine into the world.
@angelsgurl certifiedhealthnut put this up here for us to share in the joy of his family, and the effort was obviously wasted on you. No one asked for your "medical insight". So take it back to your cold hospital delivery rooms. If you don't like the way they brought their child into the world, too bad!!!!! It's not your decision, nor is it your right to question it. And if you don't like it, don't watch it!
. we've been doing this for thousands of years and it wasn't until the early 1900s that started birthing in hospitals. then the hospitals began campaigning against and discrediting the most knowledgable people in the birthing lifestyle (notice i didn't say business) ....midewifes! turst your body and thousands of years of wisdom. so hey angelsgurl read a book called pushed by jennifer block and learn something for yourself and stop listening to propaganda!
i totally agree with certifiedhealthnut! and no a crying baby doesn't mean it's a healthy baby. lots of babies born by the act of natural childbirth do not cry. and a baby should not be made to cry. the birthing experience is tramatic enough for them. hence the natural childbirth way of dim lighting, warmth, and soft sounds. not the flourescent lights, beeping, coldness, and shouting of a hospital.
It is up to The mom to be were she wants her baby born. It does NOT matter what others think it only matters what the mom to be wants it done.....................That said Im having my baby at the hospital but WITH A MIDWIFE with me so I get the benefits
of Both the Midwife and The hospital just in case the baby needs medical attention or I do...............BTW you can have water births at the hospital
@certifiedhealthnut You love to say that to anyone who dare challenges what you did. How did you prepare yourself for this...? Did you read some online site? Or perhaps you bought a book. WOW, you sure do know everything!
I myself am using my professional judgement as a registered nurse.
@angelsgurl i consulted with the most knowledgeable humans on midwifery & have worked with Maori shaman/healers/midwifes for 11 years prior to this day. i watched numerous videos with natural birth success contrasted with violent yanking babies out by their head and drugged mommies in hospitals. once educated on facts instead of indoctrinated propaganda and once one has raised their intuition so they are able to trust themselves, intelligence comes from within not without!
@angelsgurl BAD? why, the baby is clearly alive and healthy! why crying? the baby is clearly breathing! is crying the only way they teach you a baby is breathing in school? the etymology of academics by the way is trivia.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@babyjevus There is a scale called the APGAR it measures the baby's Appearance (color), Pulse, Grimace, Activity and Respiration.
That (blue/gray) is not a healthy color for the baby. His APGAR score would be low. Look it up dummy. AND YES a crying newborn is what we strive for just after birth. Baby takes in a deep breath and pinks up quickly. THAT is normal you fool.
@angelsgurl all conjecture and irrelevant to the reality of actually having a child. text books written by drug company funded biased research, paid for with drug money funded university studies. FACT: hospital births cause more harm than good!
FACT: the World Health Organization states that a society should never have more than 10% C-sections. the usa has about 33-40% FACT: births are the #1 business of hospitals!!! avg birth $16,000 + C-section $40-$50k..do the math grasshopper!
@angelsgurl The walls are blue and there is water in a blue tub...the baby was not blue, he was a healthy golden color that was not so visible in the video. that said, there are babies born with low apgars, due to certain variables, that thrive, and babies with high apgars, whose health declines. Being an RN does NOT make you an expert on normal birth! You are only exposed to the money driven medical births that, in the USA defy the WHO's recommendations. Educate yourself before speaking.
@angelsgurl a baby crying is due to trauma, not health. You are miseducated, and before you do any further name calling and debating, learn of what you speak. You are arguing about something you know little about. It is your own birth trauma coming up. Seek therapy...I suggest hypnotherapy.
@angelsgurl well for being a nurse you sure have only one opinion!!you think that the only way is in a hospital to give birth!! wrong women have been having babies at home for centuries!! you need to look at the video more, and take in account the cord got rapped around his neck that was why he was blue gray and this could happen no matter where you give birth and the midwife took care of it right away,i give my congrats to the mother for giving birth naturally!!
@angelsgurl, hospitals would lose one hell of a lot of business if women stopped seeing childbirth as an emergency to be managed. You've been taught to view it as dangerous. It's financially advantageous for you for it to be seen as dangerous. Yet, women still die giving birth in US hospitals for all their :"advantages": and interventions.
@galveston You hit the nail on the head. Not only that, the infant mortality rate is higher in American hospitals than in hospitals in any other first world country. I've even seen comments from obstetricians in Europe telling everyone to avoid American hospitals.
You think your judgment is beyond a woman's personal intuition, because of your institutionalized docterine? I think not. Check out the statistics, continue to do research. Many women in your position become nurse midwives after becoming truly educated because they realize how much a crock this healthcare system is.
@angelsgurl Shut up Angelsgurl, women were having baby's just fine before all the medical technology's we have nowadays, without doctors and without hospitals. Go take a sip of SAT DOWN and REALITY.
@angelsgurl um babies are surrounded by amniotic fluid in the womb thats what home births are for to transition them into an enviroment they are already use to..and also so they can come into this world free of medicinal drugs its the most naturalist thing to do what do you think our ancestors did when we didn't have the technology we have today? and if anything were to go wrong we are lucky to have that as a backup..to each their own you have your opinion about water birth vice versa cont.
@urshizwizeek Why don't you try not spelling like a complete fucking retard and actually READ my posts. I have already said I am a registered nurse. I have a bachelors degree. MY opinion is from actual medical knowledge.
So, please shut the fuck up! You sound so incredibly stupid!
@angelsgurl because i like to shorten my words so that i can fit everything i want to type is spelling like a complete retard yeah ok...yeah i read that you are an RN big fucken deal i can say that im a doctor on here you would never know the real truth...ur ignorant thats simple if u didn't enjoy their beautiful child birth then move the fuck on close the vid.. theres no need for ur negative comments...have a nice day : )
@angelsgurl oh sweet jesus, i certaintly wouldnt want a 'nurse' like you around me in ANY situation! Telling people they are spelling like a 'retard.' as a supposed 'nurse' would you deal with many families who have children with special needs??
@Babydollxxsaz Get over yourself. I wasn't responding to you, so why do you care? Just because I use the word retard online, with some asshat I don't know doesn't mean I would be disrespectful to a sick child in the hospital.
Why don't you go back and READ the post of the person I was talking to before you add your two cents. Now, I'm calling you a retard. Retard!
@angelsgurl ha!why shouldnt I respond to you? were you asked about your silly views in the first place? Never would i assume you would ever be disrespectful to a sick child so dont jump to such stupid, childish conclusions, what i am saying is that im sure families with children with special needs im very sure wouldnt appreciate their 'nurse' using such derogatory terms to insult others! Love, I got over myself long ago, i suggest you do the same and realise no1 wants your views on this video!
@Babydollxxsaz If you think registered nurses have "silly views" than refrain from using medical services. I stated a FACT honey. I don't care what other people "appreciate" me saying and not saying. This is fucking youtube. This is my job. I don't have to be respectful to you. I stated a fact people who are 16 years old responded to me with their silly opinions.
I know more than you, so simply get over it. GOOGLE what I 1st said that got everyone pissed off. I am not sorry for being RIGHT!
@angelsgurl hold on hold on here...a few things. A crying baby can be perfectly healthy, but a baby does not have to cry to be healthy at birth. In fact, a baby that doesn't cry can still score well on the AGAPAR. So all babies do not, in fact, have to be "made to cry" as you suggest. Crying is fine, but not crying doesn't necessarily mean the baby isn't breathing. My husband is an RN and he affirms as much.
@angelsgurl Also, I would avoid making judgments about a baby's color from a youtube video - nothing is the same as seeing the baby in real life. Moreover, when you claim that "this water birth was dangerous" are you referring to waterbirths in general? Or just this particular birth? I ask because your response doesn't make clear what separates this water birth from others. I'll refrain from commenting on this birth in particular, but waterbirth is widely used in Europe and is extremely safe
@angelsgurl When I claim that waterbirth is extremely safe, I am referencing a wealth of scholarly evidence done in Europe that supports its safety. Just like anything, there are safe and unsafe ways to have a waterbirth...and a hospital birth. Also, why all the focus on the baby's color? Yes, it's an important indicator, but lets be real - hospitals produce lots of gray/blue tinted babies, babies that need to be resuscitated, etc. NO ONE can pretend that this only happens at a waterbirth.
@angelsgurl Actually many women birth in water because it is more comforting to the baby to first enter the world in a watery environment similar to the womb. Then the baby is able to gradually comfortably adjust to a dry world as he/she is comforted by the mother. I am sure the midwife/doula were prepared to do what needed to be done in the interest of the baby.
@angelsgurl LOL that was pretty ignorant. All babies are gray when they're first born. If you take the time to watch the next video, he is pink and moving around. Very alert and healthy. The medical professon preys on people like you- too ignorant to queston them, and too reliant on them to trust your own body and do what God intended you to do. So sad. :-(
@voxmel You stupid shit. Why are you responding to a conversation you know jack shit about? I STATED in one of these responses that I AM A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL. I am a REGISTERED NURSE, with a Bachelors of Science Degree in Nursing.
I know very well what I am talking about. You obviously don't.
That is beautiful video healthnut! Thanks for sharing, what an inspiration! My mother had 7 children born at home with a midwife. Don't listen to the fearful people that don't any of this, Midwifes have been doing this since the beginning of time, They used to boiling and sanitizing there instruments long before doctors even new what caused sickness. Keep it up!
hmmm...well, i can see shutyolips voiced his/her opinion on the matter, but did so in the most confrontational way possible. clearly he/she feels birth should only be in a hospital. as for "proper care", there was a midwife present, so if the baby was in any danger, i'm sure she was prepared for every eventuality. hospital doesn't necessarily equal "proper care". hospital births often take a LOT of unnecessary risks w/drugs and interventions that can be detrimental to both mother and child.
@Metroidhunter07 as far as the baby knows it's not out of the womb yet. He's getting his supply of oxygen the same way he got it while still in the womb.
That was beautiful,thanks for sharing.My girl was born at home in a birthing pool,the cord was over her shoulder.When midwife hooked it over her head it snapped,she shot out and went for a swim!! She was wide eyed, made a whimper and breathed,looked around and started babbling like she had so much to say.
Felt everything, knew what was going on every step of the way.If had been drugged would not have been able to feel her working so hard to be born,or known if something was wrong.

@SuperKingdawit k, 1st of all "chick" im a female, not a dude. Also I was not saying YOU have to advice anyone in your family to do this method, which I believe would make it easier for both the woman and child. It is easier for the woman because it helps the baby come out faster. It is easier for the baby because it wont feel to much pain since it is easily slipping out because of the water. However, though this method may seem easier, there are some risk just like giving birth in a bed in air.

1. Yes, it's less painful to have a baby in water.
2. No, the baby doesn't try to breathe until it's out in the air.
3. Any birth at home, water or not, has far less bacteria than at the hospital.
4. The midwives change the water often to rid it of anything gross that might find its way in.
Geez, guys, do your research before you criticize. Laboring on your back on dry land is one of the most painful things you can do to yourself. It's common because it's more convenient for the doctor.

@buttonnose88 As we know that giving birth at home is safer when it comes bacteria, but for any reason... Like baby's head getting stuck under the mother's pelvic bone (just an example) the mother must be taken to the OR by the OB/GYN (not a midwife) so the can do C-Section... A child being expose to bacteria is much better than the child's heart rate dropping and mother bleeding to death. Bacteria is something that can be fixed by a few anitbiotics,

@buttonnose88 but a birth defect is something that is permanent at most time... Honestly this is more about personal opinion... I rather have my kid in the hospital, than have him at home... But the ones who want to have their child at home just make sure you know that complications seem very less. good luck to everyone.

What a great smile momma! I loved how even with the cord wrapped around his neck no one was freaking out- they just handled it and let mom and dad have their time with baby! Great birth and great job momma! I gave birth to my first child in the same position and I liked how the midwife passed baby underneath momma so they didn't have to cut the cord to get baby onto mom.
TheDragonsmile 9 months ago
@TheDragonsmile i wonder if it doesnt matter that there is a cord around its head because the baby is still underwater and doesnt need air until its taken its first breath... whereas if its not a underwater birth the child takes its first breath or tries to as soon as its nose shows befor they have time to get to the cord
afrochick2000 8 months ago
@afrochick2000 I think that is correct! That is one of the reasons that waterbirth is safe because baby doesn't have the reflex to breathe untill air hits baby's body.

@Hellokitty9276 did you ask yourself why it's not dead in his moms body??? it has the umbilical cord.... and this cord is "working" as long as the placenta (afterbirth) still is inside the mothers body... that's why the child is completely provided with everything it needs... just as if it still was inside the stomach!

That was a beautiful video. Thanks for sharing and for helping to educate others about the benefits of a non-hospital birth. We really need a re-education revolution in this country regarding childbirth. The medical profession is poorly trained, over-medicalizing birth and treating it as an emergency waiting to happen, which gives them more business because it causes women to doubt themselves and not trust their own bodies. Midwives need to take back their rightful places in the birth process!

This was a badly managed waterbirth, waterbirths should be hands off completely!! I couldn't count how many hands were fiddling with the baby before it was even born, BAD! Also the fact that the baby kept being dunked in and out of the water whilst unwrapping the cord- BAD, being stimulated under water but not able to breathe! Waterbirths are beautiful when managed properly, this wasn't, explains why the baby had poor colour and condition at first. I'm a midwife so know what i'm talking about x

Then after baby has had his face out the water he is promptly dropped back under?....could he not have taken his first breath under water? Not a criticism here, just a question, like I said, I am considering one myself..

When you learn to put aside your opinions and focus on what's really important in the end everyone's happy and no one's feelings are hurt. <3
bizitchhater 1 year ago
And you know what? Hospitals (some of them anyway) set up to cater to the mother's ideal birth setting. The hospital I'll go to for an alternate to my waterbirth does that. If things aren't right I can still try for a waterbirth, just in ahospital setting incase something doesn't go right. Why does everyone have to try and be better than everyone? Why does everyone always have to prove they're right? it's not about being right. It's about the baby and mother being healthy. THATS IT.
bizitchhater 1 year ago
It's like this. If a woman chooses to be in a hospital with drugs and doctors etc. that's her choice. If she chooses to be at home when she has her baby that's all well and good too. The point is that no matter what the baby and the mother make it out HEALTHY AND ALIVE. Forget the rest of the politics. So the doctors and nurses don't get paid unless women go to hospitals to have babies. Oh well. You make more than the national average every year anyway. You'll be fine if a few stay home.
bizitchhater 1 year ago
I've read the comments back and forth between the lot of people commenting on this video and I'll say this. I'm 20 years old and having my first baby in June. I myself don't believe in the constriction of a hospital birth so I'm opting for a natural birth at home with a midwife. That is IF everything is on the up and up in the start of my 8th month. If I have to for the sake of my baby I will go to the hospital. But only if I absolutely have to.
bizitchhater 1 year ago
that was really beautiful. i find it fascinating that you dont even have to cut the chord right away. is it true that the blood keeps pulsing into the baby for 15 minutes after birth, so the baby is actually getting all the oxygen he needs from the umbilical chord at that time?
genevievezzyzyx 1 year ago
This was absolutely beautiful to watch. I know a midwife- she uses the APGAR scale. She has delivered over 400 babies- mostly in birthing tubs just like this. There are few instances needed that she had to take the delivery to a hospital- in those cases- everyone came out happy and alive. She has yet to lose a baby or have a baby develop any health problems due to how it was birthed. Someday- this is how I plan on bringing mine into the world.

mamamyracle23 1 year ago
i totally agree with certifiedhealthnut! and no a crying baby doesn't mean it's a healthy baby. lots of babies born by the act of natural childbirth do not cry. and a baby should not be made to cry. the birthing experience is tramatic enough for them. hence the natural childbirth way of dim lighting, warmth, and soft sounds. not the flourescent lights, beeping, coldness, and shouting of a hospital.

His color is blue/gray....BAD. A crying baby is a breathing baby. He should have been dried off and made to cry.
This water birth was dangerous. You want to hold the baby in the pool for YOUR feelings, his needs are to be dried off and breathing adequately.

@babyjevus There is a scale called the APGAR it measures the baby's Appearance (color), Pulse, Grimace, Activity and Respiration.
That (blue/gray) is not a healthy color for the baby. His APGAR score would be low. Look it up dummy. AND YES a crying newborn is what we strive for just after birth. Baby takes in a deep breath and pinks up quickly. THAT is normal you fool.
angelsgurl 1 year ago
@angelsgurl all conjecture and irrelevant to the reality of actually having a child. text books written by drug company funded biased research, paid for with drug money funded university studies. FACT: hospital births cause more harm than good!
FACT: the World Health Organization states that a society should never have more than 10% C-sections. the usa has about 33-40% FACT: births are the #1 business of hospitals!!! avg birth $16,000 + C-section $40-$50k..do the math grasshopper!
certifiedhealthnut 1 year ago 3
@angelsgurl The walls are blue and there is water in a blue tub...the baby was not blue, he was a healthy golden color that was not so visible in the video. that said, there are babies born with low apgars, due to certain variables, that thrive, and babies with high apgars, whose health declines. Being an RN does NOT make you an expert on normal birth! You are only exposed to the money driven medical births that, in the USA defy the WHO's recommendations. Educate yourself before speaking.

@angelsgurl a baby crying is due to trauma, not health. You are miseducated, and before you do any further name calling and debating, learn of what you speak. You are arguing about something you know little about. It is your own birth trauma coming up. Seek therapy...I suggest hypnotherapy.

@angelsgurl, hospitals would lose one hell of a lot of business if women stopped seeing childbirth as an emergency to be managed. You've been taught to view it as dangerous. It's financially advantageous for you for it to be seen as dangerous. Yet, women still die giving birth in US hospitals for all their :"advantages": and interventions.

angelsgurl 1 year ago
@angelsgurl hold on hold on here...a few things. A crying baby can be perfectly healthy, but a baby does not have to cry to be healthy at birth. In fact, a baby that doesn't cry can still score well on the AGAPAR. So all babies do not, in fact, have to be "made to cry" as you suggest. Crying is fine, but not crying doesn't necessarily mean the baby isn't breathing. My husband is an RN and he affirms as much.
Ilovechristmas001 1 year ago
@angelsgurl Also, I would avoid making judgments about a baby's color from a youtube video - nothing is the same as seeing the baby in real life. Moreover, when you claim that "this water birth was dangerous" are you referring to waterbirths in general? Or just this particular birth? I ask because your response doesn't make clear what separates this water birth from others. I'll refrain from commenting on this birth in particular, but waterbirth is widely used in Europe and is extremely safe
Ilovechristmas001 1 year ago
@angelsgurl When I claim that waterbirth is extremely safe, I am referencing a wealth of scholarly evidence done in Europe that supports its safety. Just like anything, there are safe and unsafe ways to have a waterbirth...and a hospital birth. Also, why all the focus on the baby's color? Yes, it's an important indicator, but lets be real - hospitals produce lots of gray/blue tinted babies, babies that need to be resuscitated, etc. NO ONE can pretend that this only happens at a waterbirth.
Ilovechristmas001 1 year ago
@angelsgurl Actually many women birth in water because it is more comforting to the baby to first enter the world in a watery environment similar to the womb. Then the baby is able to gradually comfortably adjust to a dry world as he/she is comforted by the mother. I am sure the midwife/doula were prepared to do what needed to be done in the interest of the baby.

hmmm...well, i can see shutyolips voiced his/her opinion on the matter, but did so in the most confrontational way possible. clearly he/she feels birth should only be in a hospital. as for "proper care", there was a midwife present, so if the baby was in any danger, i'm sure she was prepared for every eventuality. hospital doesn't necessarily equal "proper care". hospital births often take a LOT of unnecessary risks w/drugs and interventions that can be detrimental to both mother and child.

Felt everything, knew what was going on every step of the way.If had been drugged would not have been able to feel her working so hard to be born,or known if something was wrong.

Holy crap! That was amazing. I could tell from the look of your kid in another video that you found an Amazonian wife.

Beautiful birth and babe is gorgeous. Don't understand why everyone felt the need to touch baby though. He would have been fine to come out on his own.
