I thought this article was pretty good, and the pictures with it are incredible!
Rise of the ‘freebirthers’: the mothers defying their doctors

“So emphatically did she believe in the power of her body that she allowed her unassisted birth to be filmed for a Channel Five documentary, Extraordinary People: Outlaw Births. It is an incredible event to witness. Howie calmly sits in the birthing pool, smiling and talking while her baby boy emerges and is lifted out of the water. At no point does she cry out in pain or scream – if ever there was an advert for an “ideal” intervention-free birth, this is it.

“It was a spiritual experience,” she says. “I wanted my son to enter this world as a pure being and without fear. The best way to do that was by having an unassisted birth.”

PS The comment section tied to the article has some great conversation as well. Here is the comment I made (don’t know yet if they will publish it)

“Alexis,

The most “scarily uninformed” mothers in my life are those who blindly trust the medical profession to hand them a healthy baby.

You Said:

“Unfortunately, I have encountered some scarily uninformed UCers. Some do not do prenatal care. Others believe that if you just “trust birth” it will all go well. This is not true. I had a perfectly normal, healthy pregnancy until I suddenly developed preeclampsia at 38 weeks. I did not know I was ill. I felt fine. I didn’t know there was a problem until my urine came back 4+ protein and I was admitted to hospital.”

Preeclamsia is completely preventable with a high protein diet. Do some research on the Brewer Diet. Proper nutrition is a mothers key to a healthy baby.

Only a self absorbed medical profession blinded by Big Pharma money and useless obstetric training in surgical interventions would overlook prenatal nutrtion education for mothers, but that is what they have done.”
