HOW TO HAVE PAINLESS BIRTH

Article Abstract by: Seher    

Original Author: PROF.ALI N KHAN
What would you say if I told you that you could have a painless birth experience? Would you believe me?
Herein lies
the problem (and solution!) to childbirth - the fact that women listen to others for advice and direction, and essentially for their cue to do whatever someone else deems is important. I want to impress upon you the importance of making your birth experience yours - personalizing it - not making assumptions, not assuming that it will be painful, not letting someone else tell you what needs to be done regarding birth.
I''ve given birth six times and experienced almost no pain during most of my births. When I did experience intense labor pains, it was short-lived. My average time for labor was three hours and I did not have to push very hard - or at all - to get my babies out. In fact, my third child was born within an hour of waking and in less than ten minutes of arriving at the hospital. As she slid out, I wondered how and why that happened so easily and effortlessly.
I now know why childbirth for me, and for many others, can be free of the excruciating pain that many women suffer. I''ve designed several tools for women who are interested in alleviating or eliminating pain from birth and I invite you to listen to my CD titled Your Body, Your Birth: Secrets for a Satisfying and Successful Birth.
