Natural Vaginal Birth

Natural Vaginal Birth

A natural vaginal birth refers to giving birth through the vagina without the use of major medical interventions like epidural anesthesia, induction drugs (like Pitocin), or cesarean delivery. It's often chosen by people who want a more holistic, instinctive, and physiologically-based birth experience.

Key Features of a Natural Vaginal Birth:

No Pain Medications : Pain is managed through techniques like breathing, movement, massage, hydrotherapy, hypnobirthing, etc.

No Surgical Interventions : Birth happens without cesarean or instrumental assistance (like forceps or vacuum), unless complications arise.

Minimal Medical Intervention : Limited or no IV fluids, continuous monitoring, or artificial labor induction/stimulation.

Freedom to Move : The birthing person often labors in positions they choose, not confined to a bed.

Supportive Environment : Many natural births happen at home, in birthing centers, or in hospitals with midwives or supportive OBs.
