Louisiana Natural Birth: Louisiana birth resources

Our Philosophy

We envision birth as a natural process, one which requires great inner strength and surrender, yet needs minimal outside assistance. A woman's body is wonderfully made to develope and bring forth new life.
We hold the standard of a natural birth (vaginal, unmedicated labor and deliver) as most desirable for mothers and babies. We recongnize that for some women, due to unchosen circumstances, unmedicated birth is not preferable. We support each woman in choosing the birth which is safe and comfortable for her unique situation. Therefore, we do not claim superiority over women for whom surigical birth is a must.
Each child's birth is embedded in a mother's memory. It deserves to be a treasured moment, marked by intimacy and sacredness, that is joyfully shared. Too often it is a grievous story, involving fear and manipulation, that is told with lament.
We encourage families to take responsibility for their birth experience. Ask questions. Make informed choices. Anticipate a wonderful birth! Then share these experiences with other group members at the next Natural Birth Meetup!!
