WaterBirth
If you haven’t yet considered using water for your labour or birth, here are some things to consider:
- Induces relaxation and increases production of oxytocin
- Water reduces labour pain or discomfort
- The water creates a wonderful barrier to the outside world, becoming a more intimate and relaxing environment
- Women are able to move freely into different labouring positions
- Reduces the number of unnecessary vaginal exams
- Women report that the water intensifies the connection with the baby
- The water slows crowning and offers its own perineal support
