This is a video about a mother who was on a 100% raw food diet and had no pain in childbirth. She was in labor for a total of 2 hours and delivered her baby at home. She gained a total of 10 pounds during the course of her pregnancy and was completely back to normal weight in under 2 weeks.

  • I am not sure about just gained only 10lbs? Are you sure? Just the placenta wait 6lbs + the water liquid + blood + baby weight

    Can you give the correct weight info please...

  • @posch21 Well, I do not know this woman personally nor did I make the documentary. I know other accounts of women who were 100% raw, had quick deliveries and experienced no childbirth pain. There are other women who are 100% raw and don't experience PMS. I don't speak for all women eating raw food, but I know this experience has been talked about many times. So being I heard of this experience many times I decided to post this documentary for educational purposes. Her name is Jinjee Talifero.

  • @posch21 I lost 12 lbs my first trimester and have only gained back 1lb so far. I was told as long as I'm eating it balanced that if i only gain back that 12lbs that's enough. (I do hope to gain a little more though, lol) I'm due in August, and gained less than 20lbs with my other 2 kids who were 7lb and 8lb respectively. I have no stretch marks and lost the weight within a month at max. So it is possible.

  • anything's possible! i'm pregnant for the second time and am terrifed of labor. yup. going raw for me to see if this works. last pregnancy, just eating normal, i gained like 20 pounds, but NONE of that went to my boobs. they only grew after my baby was born. and i had no swelling. just 20 pounds of fat! hahaha, but i prefer to call them "maternal stores."

  • Is this a joke? lol

  • incredible!!

  • @posch21 . . . did you not hear the narrator say she didn't have any swelling? That means she didn't have water retention =.=

  • Absolutely Amazing & Beautiful!!!! May i be just as blessed to have a raw vegan pregnancy with minimum weight gain along with tons of vitality!!!!! She is such an inspiration and testament that it can be done! I glow with excitement!!!!!

  • well during my pregnancies i gained a total of 7 pounds with my son and 9 pounds with my daughter by cutting out the soda snacks and sugars it was only after birthing them that i unfortunately gained 15 pounds so i believe anything is possible

  • have any of you done raw for 17 years and labored children through those years?....nope I DON'T THINK...SOOOO! please keep an open mind for your own benefit that is~you have to live it to experience it.~all these numbers that you are factoring in do not apply to a raw foodist that has more than 10years in the lifestyle. Please read up and research the benefits of Raw foods and live it than you can assume whatever you want...;)

  • I mean She looks Amazing! But I think the 10lbs is no realistic weight gain for any pregnant woman the naturally reasons : 3 pounds Breast 2 pounds Womb 2 pounds Baby 7.5 pounds Placenta 1.5 pounds Aminotic Fluid 2 pounds Fat & Protein 7 pounds Retained Water 4 pounds
