Hello mothers and partners!

 

I am a PhD candidate who is doing a research project on Natural Birth and maternal education. I would love it if you could share your stories of birth at my website by September 15 2011:

 

http://www.naturalchildbirthproject.com/submit-your-story.php 

 

I am looking for stories on:

 

  • natural births
  • natural births with midwives
  • natural births with hospital staff
  • homebirths
  • waterbirths
  • unplanned natural births
  • multiples
  • babies over 9 lbs
  • when the natural birth didn't go as planned
  • pain management techniques, advice, products, recommendations

 

My goal is to create a de facto "kitchen table" where birth stories, labour and delivery advice, and pregnancy tips can be shared in a non-judgmental, supportive environment with like-minded, thoughtful individuals. This is the opportunity to share best practices with other moms, which will hopefully inform and advocate for normal birth processes and natural parenting choices.

 

Thank you for your help and support! Blessings!
