Unassisted Birth

In her book, “Unassisted Childbirth”,  Laura Kaplan Stanley boldly makes this statement, “Like their  animal sisters, women will someday deliver (I prefer birth), their own babies peacefully and painlessly at home ( I say, or where they desire).  Women will understand that birth is only dangerous and painful for those who believe it is”….

Over the past decade of teaching I have had several women in my class who unequivocably agree with the above and say very matter-of- factly say,” yes, that is how I birthed my baby.  My ‘animal’ nature (body) birthed the baby and my mid-wife, partner, ob/gyn simply caught the baby.”
