Childbirth, Part Deux
Someone in comments asked what I would call unmedicated, vaginal childbirth. How about unfun?
Seriously, I just think that calling one kind of birth natural over all others just doesn't seem right. Do we have "natural" wisdom-tooth removal, "natural" open-heart surgery?
Yes, childbirth without drugs certainly harks back to a certain way-back time when women just dropped children in the fields. But they also died in labor, naturally.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: it's all natural.
