The Unspoken Dangers of Planned Cesareans
Posted On 11/26/2008 10:19:21 by DebbyS
Some women are choosing to have their baby by a planned, or scheduled, cesarean instead of “leaving things to chance.” How sad that these women aren’t considering the extra dangers these planned cesareans bring into the picture.

Articles that try to paint cesareans as panaceas for the “problems” of normal birth often make opinion seem like fact. For instance, they may list incontinence or pelvic floor weakness as consequence of normal birth. Yet, women who’ve never even... Read More

Posted On 11/17/2008 14:41:04 by LaylaBethMunk
I am absolutely honored to be participating in the Motherwear Breastfeeding Blog's latest Carnival of Breastfeeding: Product Reviews. Following the blog, I have provided links to the other participants. Enjoy!
-- I am a nursing product junkie! I adore products geared toward nursing mommies. Anything that encourages more women to breastfeed their children is a good thing, as far as I’m concerned.
I had such a difficult time in the beginning, that had it not been for certa... Read More



The Womb Room

Think, for a moment about a baby’s 9 month life in the womb. How would you describe their environment? Perhaps, dark, tight, warm? How would you describe their position?

HypnoBirthing

I love what I used hypnosis for my second birth in 1986 but that was before I knew of HypnoBirthing which is such a wonderful way to give birth. My birth was calm and quiet to the point the doctors and nurses couldn't believe it. My son was born in the birthing room and nursed right after he was born. This is what every women should experince. It is your inturnal right to give birth calmy and in a peaceful envirorment. You know what your body is telling you, but you must lisen. Joyc e...
