Free Birth ( Viewer Discretion Advised

This is a video from Discovery Health Channel about a women who gave birth in her own living room with her daughter without anyone there with medical training.

Okay there is some contradiction on free birthing most that in a resent non clinical study that i have done most feel that free birthing is in-human to the baby and the mother that the chances of ending up with a both healthy mom and baby is waving a chances for a heart attack to the mother loss of blood to the mom. also without urgent resonce of air to the baby may result in baby lossing oxygen to the brain and fatel death also one whom is not trained in crowning dilation and so on may not know what are the signs of destress to the baby and so on....

So what do you feel leave a video or writen responce to what you feel about Free Birthing

lol wht was this documentry called?

[MBH96]

Its not a documentary it's a TV show on the Discovery Health Channel called "Free Birthing " ,lol

[ech1dna]

Homebirth with a midwife is great for low risk women but this 'free birth' crap just self-centred gobbledygook. Its about putting babies at real risk to fulfill a delusional fantasy.

The infliction of risk on innocents in the name of culture or belief is just wrong. Exposing a baby to a significant risk of death from entirely avoidable causes for the sake of a fashionable stunt birth to be boasted about at dinner parties is selfish and sick.

Shame on anyone who supports such a thing!

Sir, as I understand this is a controversial topic and there are a lot of different opinion on 'Free Birthing' I am not saying I support it or I don't this video is purely for viewing not to make judgments.

@bnanamkin I am not interesting in fighting or arguing. If you really want to understand why women do it, research it. do a google search on free birth or unassisted birth. If you just want to argue because the idea freaks you out, I'm not interested in continuing the conversation, though I do understand your fears.

[LJnandSrada]

@bnanamkin Well, I suppose you can think what you want, but it is for the baby's safety and ultimate health (emotional and physical) that the mothers choose this. I would recommend in-depth study on this before you judge further. I thought it was unsafe when I first read about it, but I did a lot of research and changed my mind.

@bnanamkin I wasn't talking to you about the spam. Someone had marked your comment as spam and I was talking to whoever had marked it (it may have been an error, also - they may have been intending to give you a thumbs up or something.

@bnanamkin It only takes 5 minutes for a brain deprived of oxygen to suffer irreversible brain damage and only 8 minutes for it to die. If I was crazy enough to try this and my son had brain damage or died as a result, I could never forgive myself.

@LJnandSrada I also think it's extremely selfish. Most mothers I know would do anything to keep their children safe, even if it means sacrificing their own wants and needs. I'm sure we all can agree there is some element of risk involved with free birthing. How much risk obviously varies depending on who you ask. But there is risk. I would think that a mother would be willing to sacrifice her own pride and selfish wants to better her infant's odds of surviving childbirth.

@LJnandSrada I didn't mark anything as spam so I don't know what you are talking about in that regard. Having babies in the 1800s is just as dangerous as it is now with the exception for those who seek proper medical care for delivery. Being informed doesn't do you any good if something goes wrong. Does this gal know how to intubate a newborn? Could she tell if the cord was pinched and blood supply lost while trying to deliver? I don't think so.
