If women were taught to listen to their intuition not only in pregnancy, but during labor and in life there would be a lot less trauma and definitely a lot more confidence in parenting. From the beginning of labor women delivering in hospitals are told what to do, how to do it and what they can and can't do.
Just as a flower blooms on its own time, women should be treated the same in delivery. I promise they will blossom beautifully on their own without being told to lay in bed or to stop making noises or to allow interventions so that their baby doesn't die. None of these controlling methods are helpful for women or babies.
Did you follow your intuition in labor? Did you feel supported and heard?
