Comments of Donna Young, Canada

YOU too can have a wonderful gentle birth story, an unassisted birth, no clamping of the cord, placenta born in the water, no inteference of a ethical and moraly and competent midwife, does not interfer with the child's birth, scream or rage, or stop the progression of labor. NO cord around the neck need stop the labor, the baby does not breathe through the nose or the mouth, but through the cord. A soft sponge or finger between the neck and the cord is the wise way to deal with any cord around the neck NOT tying or cutting off the child's circulation system. Much information in the biology textbooks and some medical manuals and even some medical textbooks were written likely as a a hoax to test the mantel of the human beings if they can think standing on their feet. We can never say a hospital birth is a safer place to birth babies. The facts were, 93 to 95 percent of all births are without complications if you do not upset nature, do silly things to rush the birth at the suggestion of any person, but how the mother is feeling, and has intitution if something is wrong or should be checked. Mothers and babies know best.

This link can give you encouragement of a positive birth experience, a healthy baby, no complications. Birth labor discomfort is never a walk in the park, but understanding your own hormones and relaxing in the tub letting nature bring baby into your presence is learning all about patience in child birth and nurturing your baby or babies, thereafter. The best example of multiple births, in a home birth, were the 1934 Dionne Sisters, and because they were not a c-section birth, that is why they lived, most likely. And if the doctor was trained not to clamp the umbillical cord until the pulsation in the cord stopped, all the babies would have been equally strong, for they shared the placenta and the amout of blood created for them to be just right for all their needs. Man and woman must learn not to try to change the natural design that nature knows best in most instances.

Many midwives, doctors, surgeons, ambulance medics, are NOT competently trained on the fetus to neonate/adult circulation system. They were trained they had to clamp, tie, or hand-squeeze off the lifeline. That is not logical. We do not interfere with any other animals birth, it would be cruelty to do that to animals and it is child abuse if we do it to the human babies. The false information in textbooks, library references, should be stamped, criminal medical malpractice information, and get a court order to do that, if the the librarian does not cut out the false information or destroy the textbook, or stamp the page with a warning alert, the inforrmation is false. False information is also the placing the mother on her back, when gravity positons and semi-sitting birth positions close the birth canal up to 30 percent. This can cause more birth trauma for the child and the mother, and cause her to tear. Logic is following natures design and not making things more difficult. Drugs slow or cause harsher labor, so avoid them. Warm water taken as hot as possible, and any food to nourish the mother to strengthen her are just fine. Don't be afraid to shoot from both ends........but feeling to bear down may just be baby, so keep the toilet clean, eh.

Donations are gratefully accepted if I have benefitted you in any way to make a wiser choice not to clamp or cut your child's cord. Primal traditions are your right and to know no cosmetic removal of the cord is your legal right to keep the baby as a sealed unit, days if you like.....no infection in the cord, no hernias, and it is days to that perfect detachment, whereas a cut cord threatens the baby of cord infections, and deprivation of blood if you tie off the cord before the placenta, the afterbirth is expelled. Keep the strangers hands away from the baby, and mother does not get infections either, if she did happen to tear. Most tears heal normally and without stitching, in most instances.

I also do assistance for any damage child as a result of "active management" . Active management is the use of drugs, morphine (Demerol), cutting the mothers body, using flat on the back and semi-sitting positions, using leaning backward birth chairs. All these are power trips of others to have control over the mother and the outcome of the birth. Seldom do they take legal accountability of damaged babies. The active management uses Oxytocin to cause faster third stage labor, meaning they are impatient to cause the placenta to be expelled. There is NO panic to expel the placenta and the baby should not be cut or clamped from the cord, until the placenta is naturall expelled...so the doctor or midwife, if they are anxious for the birth to be over, dismiss them, immediately. Or if they have been drugging and cutting women in birth, do not accept their services, or if they ever collected placenta blood, that means they treated the child as a second class citizen, for the benefit of others and did not warn the mother not to do that, or clamping of the cord was endangering to both the mother and the child. If you do not know why, call me, 1-250-782-9223.

Active Management, I say, is the biggest and most harmful hoax of the Century, really, since 1801.......This was the year, of written documentation of Dr. Erasmus Darwin stated NOT to clamp the cord while it was pulsating. He said it WEAKENED THE BABIES, as more blood would be trapped in the placenta then otherwise ought to be in the infant. NOW how that information was used was if the doctors were wanting the placenta and the palcenta blood for experiments, and they were trying blood transfusions for a long time, and perfected them by 1901, when they typed the blood, and more so, when they knew about the RH factors by 1914, when they needed even more blood from babies, exploited for the First World War. Trends of robbing babies of their placenta blood, knowing they do not die, but are weakened, and some more seriously then others, with permanant brain damage, have been to Wars and need of blood for research.

Cosmetic companies, drug companies, research labs all purchased from the hospitals the blood from the placenta and the placenta and cord were used too. The hospitals had a well kept secret and the excutives of medical groups that have made policies of active management should have to give their own justifications before a proper Public Commissioned Inquiry. Some may well have to stand trial for child abuse, if those are the medical persons that followed the harmful protocol policies, rather then report them as endangering to any one child imposed on.

IN summary, correct any one or any textbook video or film if you see any medical persons clamping the lifeline. There are TV promoting this hoax, and one never knows the long term effects of a weakened child. They have gut problems, feeding problems, and sleeping problems. All is compounded with injections of diseases and needles inserted into their bodies, and this is NOT natural birth, but invasive medical meddling.

Active Management as did Dr. Erasmus Darwin, the grandfather of the Champion of Survival of the Fittest, Charles Darwin, know the baby would not die, in most instances, at least not right away. The World Health Organization knows that over 500,000 babies will die of a cut cord. They know if the baby is not tied or clamped or cut from the cord, is does not harm to the mothere or the child.

BENEFITS OF SIGNED CONTRACT, AS SOON AS YOU ARE PLANNING OR KNOW YOU ARE EXPECTING A BABY:

Active Management is far from Natural Birth, so have a Signed Birth Contract...It should not be longer then one legal page. It can be in the NEGATIVE what cannot be done to the mother's person to birth her baby and what cannot be done to the fetus/neonate. The latter is a newborn citizen that must have equal protection and security of person by the Nation's duty to the child.

The Birth Contract can be an Order too, to can keep the midwife out of the same birth room, too, or the doctor, and you call them only if you want assistance. These unassisted births, even in the hospital, are a legal right of traditional primal birth rights of "all" women. You need not be native or aboriginal all women, have this traditional right of choice informed choice and they alone can say no to any cutting of their person to birth babies, their way. Any rough handling of the mother by any militant medical persons, including midwives, should be report as assault, battery, even attempted murder, or wrongful death, if death results by their deception and control of the situation. Natural birth needs not power plays.

Againt, remember that the unassisted birth is a legal right Primal births are traditional and natural and common law allows that choice to the woman. NO medical law can deprive the mother of those rights or protocols or policies of the hospital, the doctor, the nurse. KNOW they cannot as a self-regulating and for profit groups, payments for their services control ever the mother's decision or use any lies or misinformation to get the mother to agree to any forced appropriate care form. What does that mean, but only a form was signed...and likely under duress to the mother, often being lied too.

The birth contract, signed early for informed choices of the mother will, hopefully, prevent Birth Injuries and Brain Damage, mostly caused by Active Management policies and training far, from natural birth.

Many birth persons do not know to encourage the mother in gravity positions for shoulder dystocia or a sideways forward position birth. Flat on the back can injure the mother, and hurt her legs if they are being pulled back on her and injure the child. Broken collar bones can cause serious injury to the child and interfere with the childs lympathic circulation system.

Changes of position in gravity positions are the mothers choices. The mother, needs support, to change her position moves. The recommendations are warm water births, not too hot, not too cold. The water tubs should be sufficient to squat, stride, or be on all fours.

The warm room and warm water prevents or catching baby in a previously warmed towel (warm water bottles, heating pads) prevents shock of cold air. The cold air can STOP the childs circulation system, causing hypothermia. The cold air is like the cold steel of the clamp and can be a secret weapon to misguide the parents that the pulsation had ceased. The birth aid caused unnecessary early stopping of the pulsating of the cord by a cold room. It is not logical to either the mother or the child.

COLOR OF THE BABY: Babies may be this color at birth. It is normal.

All babies are bluish when born, and they pink up, if left on the umbilical cord untied. A BLUISH baby turning a nice pinky or reddish color means they got all the oxygen from the placenta and from the air when they wanted to breathe after full blood transfusion into their expanding lungs. The redder the blood the more pure the oxygen content. The more the bluish the blood means carbon dioxide is present, used up oxygen in the blood.

The beating cord means the baby's heart is beating.

REVIVAL:

Revive any baby on the umbilical cord, gently, and do not tie off the lifeline or cut it. IF you know to do that, you will not have a brain injured baby or one that has CP, or MS or HIE.

NATURAL BIRTH IS LOGICAL, ACTIVE MANAGEMENT IS A BUSINESS TIME EFFICIENCY MANIPULATION OF YOUR CHILD, AND MAY TAKE THE MOTHER AND THE BABY'S LIFE...STATE-OF-THE-ART IS NOT NECESSARY IN MOST INSTANCES, BUT IS A MOTHER'S CHOICE.

TERMINATING A BABY'S LIFE -- ABORTION. Parents wanting a baby often do many scans, and it may be not wise to do that, unless they intend to abort their baby if it is not perfect.

Full facts that scanning a child is not 100 percent. Many mothers have aborted babies that were perfect. The mothers did not know the embroy or fetus or the still born neonate were sold for high profits in the cloning of the tissues of all parts of the fetus....brain, lungs, heart, liver, spleen, and the value of those tissues mean the doctor(s) valued less the child and used any means to misguide the mother, usualy the words of fear are we fear the baby may have this. The older the parents when having a child the more vulnerable they are to be led to abort the baby into science tissues.

Birth is logical.

When you watch other mammals give birth, a rare sight to see, as the hide from man's ignorance, but for example a mare giving birth, tjhe mare often rolls over to place the colt in a proper position, if mare is having birth problems. Most mares are best left in a wide open field, rather then cornered and placed in small stalls.

In the human birth experiences, if the mother are having problems in birthing their babies, it is best to remain calm. The Mothers, often themselves, can deal with shoulder dystocia much the same way...moving your position of birth, and that is why hospitals birth beds and high operating tables are dangerous places to be to birth your baby.

Insist on freedom of movement in your birth, as you would in a home birth, if you do go to an institution. Just don't panic to stop the proper hormones from adjusting. KEEP calm...change positions, have pillows for a soft landing for the baby, or babies. DON"T pull on the baby's body, neck, or feet. Don't cut or clamp any twins cord...Nature knows what it is doing. You may tie an cut the wrong cord, if fraternal twins having their own separate placentas, or cut the wrong twins cord.

Let the mother's body birth the child, as her own hormones (relaxin) muscles and hip expansion all know what to do. If you follow logical natural birth education and practice all should be well with mother and the child.

Emergency birth:

Remember, emergency births are fast and quick as 1-2-3. Warmest room possible, cleanest towels 3 or 4, warm if possible, wrap baby in a warm towel, no touching of the cord or cutting it ; keep the cord flexible, as you hold the baby for the placenta to come out. Don't pull or cut the cord, don't push on the mother's stomach, you could cause the breaking up of the palcenta.

What to do for the afterbirth?

Be patient, it may not be born for 5 to 20 minites, maybe even longer. In the meantime, do keep the baby warm in a warm towel. Sometimes the cord is long enough for the mother to hold, even to snuggle to her breast if the cord is 22 to 36 inches long. If not, hold the baby until the palcenta is expelled. Suggested is lower gravity for alleged faster blood transfusion. If you hold the baby to high, the baby's heart may not be strong enough to return the artery blood to allow the placenta to continue to deal with the carbon dioxide, it continues the exchange of gases, until the baby's palcenta blood is tansfused into the baby's own lungs, to do that exchange. Lungs take alot of blood. Soon the arteries close off on the baby's internal organs. But the vein remains open to transfuse the blood into the yet expanding lungs, and the placenta is maintaining the pressure and volume until this is all completed. So leaving the palcenta and the cord alone is very wise.

NATURE HAS DESIGNED THE NEEDS OF THE BABY'S VOLUME AND PRESSURE OF BLOOD TRANSFUSION:

Can you allow the baby to have too much blood, too thick of blood? You cannot know that in 30-seconds, or instant cord clamping and doctors saying they know are lying or are not competently trained in the fetus to neonate circualtion system, so should not be delivery a baby, they will be in a panic and be impatient.

Who decides how much and when to stop the blood transfusion from the palcenta. The baby is the owner of the placenta and the placenta blood and nutrients, and no one else. So, the judge of how much they need on a personal situation, all babies different, even for a multiple birth, the baby or the babies decide volume and pressure, and how fast the blood is transferred from the placenta to the expanding lungs.

Babies getting all their blood need, are calm and contented, and more rested then babies deprived their rightful ownership of blood nature intended them to have. Most reports of jaundice of babies getting too much blood are withholding information and the report should be reported as misguiding the medical persons or the public at large. What is missing from improper reports that should not be published, ever, is if the mother was sick, or if drugged. This sickness or drugging can cross the palcenta and create the same internal problems to the child. Jaundice is not a sickness but an indicator something may be wrong and requires a urine test, or a pH test, or a chemical test for drug poisoning.

THICK BLOOD, TOO MUCH BLOOD, IS IT POSSIBLE:

There are tests for blood pressure, blood volume and oxygen content of the blood. To say or predict a baby to justify early umbilical cord clamping is not with evidence of that opinion, and once the cord is clamped the baby may go into shock. To take out blood out of any person's body is known as venesection and phlebtomy. See also Leech. This blood-letting was done on George Washington, who had a sore throat. It killed him. His trusted friends and doctors took over 4 cups of blood from a sick man, and within hours he was dead. I've no a letter from a mother to say that was a need or a benfit to the child, to deprive her baby of full placenta transfusion or blood letting after birth. Any doctor that interrupted the child's circualtion system should have serious investigation if he/she is competently trained to attend a child's delivery. Even if the child lived they weakened the child and did not know but guessed when the interupted the ciruclation system. The doctorts had no X-ray eyes to know if the baby's cord was ever compressed. A baby with a compressed cord may take much longer to catch up. They may be very pale, and not bluish when born, indicate the blood was going back into the baby's placenta, through the two arteries, but the vein was compressed not to bring in fresh oxygenaged blood into the baby's now expanding lungs.

The active management policies and those set by ACOG and SOGC, must be questioned when they were directing all babies have early umbilical cord clamping or immediate cord clamping to do test. Any medical doctor not reading they are on their own if they accept and follow a bulletin or policy, as they are in control of voluntary movement of their hands. They clamp the cord, or instructed a nurse to not think on her feet, too, to participate in the interruption of the child's circulation system. On a hearing of child abuse, the Judge decides per each individual case. The parents or any informed citizen do the Laying of the Information. It is a medical myth that only doctors, or social workers can lay a Laying of Information for child abuse, it can be and should be taken against medical persons endangering any newborn child by way of interruption of the circulation system, depriving the child of equal rights to a quality life, or endangering of the child of life itself.

How many times the doctor or other medical person come before the courts will determine other factors of bias or business opportunities to sell the blood the doctor was taking advantage of follow questionable protocol of policies of allowance of early clamping off the lifeline. What are determiners known long before the child is born, often is to the color or race of the child, the child's sex, this is all to blood types and matching for transplantation of tissue, which blood is a tissue. It is most likely the doctor was paid for collecting the placenta organ, or acted as an agent for the Hosptial to do the financial collection, or the hospitals lab.

The hosptial and their ethics boards all have a collective and severally (individual accountaiblity) to do their duty to know that the highest best practice possible is done with the least risk of harm is done, and they do NOT allow, even request by the parent(s), to exploit the newborn child for their blood, not one drop of blood should be taken from the child's person or palcenta or vein. Certainly, not with cause and approved test by the legal guardian of the child, the parent(s).
