Water Birth
Water birth is childbirth that occurs in water, usually a birthing pool. It may include the use of water for relaxation and pain relief during the first stage of labour, birth into water in the second stage of labour, and the delivery of the placenta in the third stage of labour. Benefits Proponents believe childbirth in water results in a more relaxed, less painful experience. A 2018 Cochrane Review of water immersion in the first stages of labour found evidence of fewer epidurals and few adverse effects but insufficient information regarding giving birth in water. A moderate to weak level of evidence indicates that water immersion during the first stage of childbirth reduces the pain of labour. A 2018 Cochrane Review found that immersion at this stage reduces the use of epidural analgesia; however, there is no clear evidence on the benefits of immersion for the second stage of labour, namely delivery (sometimes called full water birth). There is no evidence of increas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
