Do freebirthing mothers forgo ultrasounds as well?
“Do freebirthing mothers forgo ultrasounds as well?”
I did not have any medical prenatal care with my last two pregnancies, so no, I did not have an ultrasound, but many women use various forms of prenantal care, including scans to help them prepare for the home birth.
Freebirth is all about taking personal responsibility, but hiring whatever professional a mother feels is important for her and her baby.
After my last birth I hired a post partum doula to care for me, and asked my chiropractor to come to our home for post birth adjustments for me and my son.
