Benefits of Waterbirth: - Greater comfort
- Greater maternal mobility in water
- Promotes deeper relaxation of the muscles. This in turn allows for the bodies own oxytocin to be released, creating more rhythmic & efficient contractions.
- The buoyancy allows the mothers body to remain weightless allowing her to sustain longer positions such as squatting, etc.
- Helps mother to conserve her energy by supporting mothers weight so that her energy can be used to cope with contractions.
- Many women report water being an effective tool for natural pain relief
- Greater sense of privacy. Being completely submersed in water can relieve anxiety allow a woman to feel less inhibited during the labor process.
