This selection of vaginal birth video clips shows women giving birth attended by medical attendants in a hospital setting. These videos show how NOT to have your baby! Research has shown that the lithotomy position lying on your back is the worst position for giving birth! Although we have personally witnessed some hospital births that were more peaceful, gentle and with less interventions to the newborn, than these, they are probably the exception, rather than the norm. Generally the choice of position for giving birth is predetermined by the hospital's approach and maternity care and its routine practices.

Unassisted childbirth
Watching home birth videos is one of the best ways to prepare yourself and your family for a home birth. Videos inspire, teach, give your more confidence and assure you that you can do it too! I have been a fan of natural birth videos especially home births for many years.



Unassisted childbirth UC refers to the process of intentionally giving birth without the assistance of a medical birth attendant. It may also be known as freebirth , [1] DIY do-it-yourself birth , [2] unhindered birth , [3] and unassisted home birth. It is also different from homebirth , although most UCs also happen within the home. Many "unassisted" births involve the attendance of a non-medical birth attendant, though the definition of unassisted birth sometimes means there is only family or peers in attendance and no professional support whatsoever.
