Water birth, a gentle approach to childbirth, has gained popularity in several countries for its soothing qualities and potential benefits. Immersing in warm water during labor and delivery is believed to reduce the need for pain medication and minimize vaginal trauma, offering a natural and comforting experience for expecting mothers.
Water birth involves giving birth in a birthing tub or pool filled with warm water. The idea is to allow the mother to relax and find comfort in the water, as well as provide a gentle transition for the baby from the amniotic sac’s fluid environment to the warm water of the tub.
