Natural Birth - Not Cesarean!

Did you know that around 29% of the births in the US are now by Cesarean section? This is following a worldwide trend in not only developed countries but also developing ones.

For example, even in Thailand I hear people recommending Cesarean section births as a ‘normal’ procedure.

Oh, I appreciate that I am a man and therefore it could be argued that I am not qualified to give advice in this area but I know enough about it to understand that this method of childbirth should only be considered if there was a potential danger to either the mother or child if the ‘natural way’ was not an option.

There are many downsides and indeed risks to both Mother and Child with a Cesarean section. Encourage your daughters and granddaughters to give birth naturally if possible. You may care to read an article about this by clicking here.
