"I don't know how you do that."

"I could never."

"My pain tolerance is too low"

"You're so brave."

"I never could have done it without drugs."

Most women have average pain tolerance with a normal amount of willpower.

Women who have natural, uninterrupted births are not super heroes, they are just like you.

The difference is usually preparedness. Not always. Sometimes you give it your all, you plan, you prep, you practice, and birth still doesn't go your way.

But usually, a mother who has a natural, unmedicated, uninterrupted birth finds her strength in knowing birth is normal.

She finds her will power in knowing this has been done since the beginning of time by ordinary women, not super heroes.

She knows the pain she is enduring now may increase but that only means she is closer to holding her baby and it won't last forever.

She is brave because she has her doula encouraging, assissting, and reassuring her that in fact, she CAN birth her baby just as women have for centuries.

You can birth your baby. Education and support are key in having the natural birth you want.

Find your support, educate yourself, but know that you have always had the ability to birth your baby.

For some reason "baby whisperers" have decided that if a baby is fed and the right temperature then you don't have to pick them up and cuddle them if they cry. How this concept came to be I have no idea. How many times did you cry and need a cuddle even though you were the "right" temperature and had just eaten a hamburger? Just because someone is full and comfortable does not mean they don't need a cuddle.
Cuddle your babies.
Cuddle your children.
Every time.
