My First Birth Experience






My first birth experience was my best friend daughter in Jamaica The experience was something to remember she was in so much pain that day. She was in labor for 10 hours.  She wanted the epidural since day one she found out she was pregnant. She always said it no way I’m having her baby natural. They give her the medicine soon after a lot of screaming baby Zonal was born.  Since the baby was so little they had to stay in the hospital for couple of days. She was in tears at first thing something was wrong with the baby. But doctor told her everything is ok the baby just was small. I learn that most woman in Jamaica have a midwife to deliver their baby natural. Midwife's are somebody trained to deliver babies at home for mothers. After birth Jamaica women are to stay home, as housewife till the baby is around 3 years of age. Till she or he is ready for pre-school. Before birth they are not allowed to work when they find out they are expected a child. In United States most women work up to 9 months or two weeks before delivering. I don’t now why, but most American women work during and after birth. They take their six weeks and get back to the life. I know that most be pretty tough to handle doing, but they have to provide for your family. I just think being a mother is a job, and every mother should be able to stay a home one-year. I wish I could pass that bill in congress. Happy Mothers day to all the amazing women in this world. I admire you all thanks.
