There are many different ways of caring for a mother and her baby during labor and birth. Birthing care that is better and healthier for mothers and babies is called “mother-friendly.” Some birth places or settings are more mother friendly than others. A group of experts in birthing care came up with this list of 10 things to look for and ask about. Medical research supports all of these things. These are also the best ways to be mother-friendly. When you are deciding where to have your baby, you’ll probably be choosing from different places such as: a birth center, hospital, or home birth service. Here’s what you should expect, and ask for, in your birth experience. Be sure to find out how the people you talk with handle these 10 issues about caring for you and your baby. You may want to ask the questions below to help you learn more. 1. “Who can be with me during labor and birth?” Mother-friendly birth centers, hospitals, and home birth services will let a birthing mother decide whom she wants to have with her during the birth. 2. “What happens during a normal labor and birth in your setting?” If they give mother-friendly care, they will tell you how they handle every part of the birthing process. 3. “How do you allow for differences in culture and beliefs?” Mother-friendly birth centers, hospitals, and home birth services are sensitive to the mother’s culture. 4. “Can I walk and move around during labor?" In mother-friendly settings, you can walk around and move about as you choose during labor. You can choose the positions that are most comfortable and work best for you during labor and birth. 5. “How do you make sure everything goes smoothly when my nurse, doctor, midwife, or agency need to work with each other?” Can my doctor or midwife come with me if I have to be moved to another place during labor? 6. “What things do you normally do to a woman in labor?” Mother-friendly settings only use methods that have been proven to be best by scientific evidence. 7. “Besides drugs, how do you help mothers relieve the pain of labor?" The people who care for you should know how to help you cope with labor. They should know about ways of dealing with your pain that don’t use drugs. They should suggest such things as changing your position, relaxing in a warm bath, having a massage and using music. 8. “What if my baby is born early or has special problems?” Mother-friendly places and people will encourage mothers and families to touch, hold, breastfeed, and care for their babies as much as they can. 9. “Do you circumcise baby boys?” Medical research does not show a need to circumcise baby boys. It is painful and risky. Mother friendly birth places discourage circumcision unless it is for religious reasons. 10. “How do you help mothers who want to breastfeed?” Do they tell all pregnant mothers why and how to breastfeed? They help you start breastfeeding within one hour after your baby is born. Newborns should have only breast milk.

It’s just easier and I got more sleep at night! When you breastfeed, it is always available to your baby, whether that’s a feed in the middle of the night, or in the middle of a road trip. When baby lets you know she’s hungry, you have a supply of perfectly-warmed milk, in adequate supply, with no waiting time required. 2. Money Saving Breastmilk is created by your body and only dependent on the food and water you consume, it costs nothing. Compared to the cost of formula alone, you could pay upwards of $3,000+ a year, not to mention bottles and other needed equipment. 3. Nutritional quality Not only is breastmilk balanced and perfect for all babies, but it’s also engineered for each baby – the formulation changes with baby’s age, and even in the presence of illness. 4. Bonding Life can be a hectic thing, and nobody knows that more than a busy mom. Every time you sit down to nurse your baby is a chance to catch your breath, look at your little one, and feel those hormones flowing! 5. Long term health benefits for mom and baby Long term health benefits of breastfeeding for baby include: significantly lower rates of gastrointestinal illnesses, a lowered risk of diabetes, childhood cancers and obesity, and a healthier immune system response to all the things that life throws their way.
