When it comes to birth, I always wanted to know how much the initial pain is and how it actually feels to carry another human being inside of you. Do you actually feel it? Some may call it beautiful things while other may not. Honestly I don't know much about birth just by the fact that I've seen my sister's birth and that you have to wait 9 months to conceive. Lots of times I feel like the "having the baby" is close to never intentional. It just happens and the soon to be parents just accept it or reject it.When I asked my mom about myself, she didn't mean for me to happen but she wasn't upset by the fact she got pregnant. Just bring up a new life to the family. I noticed a lot when a birth of baby coming lots of the focus is taken off maybe other siblings and kids to put on the "baby" that isn't even here yet.
Also the soon to be mother, is treated as an sacred thing and is like untouchable. In my culture, there is always the traditional baby shower with the well and the huge chair which I still till this day do not understand and the hat with baby things on them. One thing i am curious to know is how giving birth has changed over the years. Nowadays is it more safer by the fact we have all these medications to ease the pain for the mother and different tools to make the baby come out. Is really "natural" or just a word to cover it? I wonder what it is like in different countries and how they percieve birth in a different ways that americans do. What are their outtakes on things?
