2. INTRODUCTION:
NORMAL SPONTANEOUS DELIVERY
Normal Spontaneous delivery (NSD) also called Vaginal Delivery is a medical term used to
describe when a pregnant woman goes into labor without the use of drugs or techniques to
induce labor, and delivers her baby in the normal manner, without a cesarean section. In other
words, it is the natural birth of a child, simply without the intervention of modern techniques
devised by humans.
The general motive behind choosing to proceed with a NSD rather than a modern delivery is of
concern over the possibility of artificial methods having an unnatural and unintended harmful
effect on the infant. It is widely accepted that synthetic medical drugs have been observed to
produce adverse health effects and as such the FDA attempts to enforce disclosure of these
effects to consumers, when the effects are deemed statistically significant. In addition to these
known risks, medication carries with it the risk of causing harm in ways not currently known or
understood. Although most professionals in the medical industry would contend that such risks
are often negligible, being that drug use is so common, there are however many holistic
practitioners, other professionals, and members of the public which disagree with this contention
and are not willing to take the risk. Afterall, an infant child is a fragile creature, intimately
connected to the health of its mother.
As for pain management, one may consider the most natural approach to be a healthy diet, high
in antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, essential fatty acids (omega-3), etc. The psychological
factor can also be effected through more-natural means, through something as simple as
learning to stay calm, or through procedures such as hypnosis. Some might consider taking
certain plants ("herbs") not normally considered food, with the intention of having them function
as natural pain killers. This approach however might not be considered acceptable by those
striving for as natural a process as possible, as it is possible for herbs to contain biochemicals
which function very similarly to synthetic chemical drugs.
What is false labor?
As you approach your due date, the painless and infrequent Braxton Hicks contractions
that you may have been feeling since mid-pregnancy sometimes become more
3. rhythmic, relatively close together, and even painful, possibly fooling you into thinking
you're in labor. But unlike true labor, this so-called false labor doesn't cause significant,
progressive dilation of your cervix, and the contractions don't grow consistently longer,
stronger, and closer together.
How Do I Know When Contractions Indicate True Labor?
To figure out if the contractions you are feeling are the real thing and you're going into labor, ask
yourself the following questions.
How often do the contractions happen?
False Labor: Contractions are often irregular and do not get closer together.
True Labor: Contractions come at regular intervals and last about 30-70 seconds. As
time goes on, they get closer together and stronger.
Do they change with movement?
False Labor: Contractions may stop when you walk or rest, or may even stop if you
change positions.
True Labor: Contractions continue despite movement or changing positions.
How strong are they?
False Labor: Contractions are usually weak and do not get much stronger. Or they may
be strong at first and then get weaker.
True Labor: Contractions steadily increase in strength.
Where do you feel the pain?
False Labor: Contractions are usually only felt in the front of the abdomen or pelvis.
True Labor: Contractions are more intense and may start in the lower back and move to
the front of the abdomen.
