Trauma of medicalized births

In this eye-opening excerpt, Darcia Narvaez addresses the trauma caused by medicalized birth practices, highlighting how the modern approach to childbirth often disregards the natural processes of the baby and mother. Babies, according to nature, should be the ones to decide when they are ready to be born, but in today's medical system, labor is often induced based on arbitrary due dates. This not only leads to premature births but disrupts the natural bonding process between mother and child. The use of artificial hormones and pain interventions further complicates the situation, leaving both mother and baby physically and emotionally impacted. The consequences? Babies born in this way are often two months behind in their developmental milestones compared to those born under natural, supportive conditions. It's a powerful reminder of the importance of honoring the natural rhythms of birth and the need for a return to more holistic, compassionate practices.
