Birth Experiences

  • Write about a personal birthing experience. It can be your own birth, your child's birth, or one you took part in. What do you remember about the event? Why did you choose this example? What are your thoughts regarding birth and its impact on child development?
  •  I can remember that one of my children was born in the am and one in the pm.  Their births were pretty normal and so is their development.

  • Choose a region of the world or a country, other than the U.S., and find out how births happen there. Write about what you learned, and the differences and similarities with your experience (in the personal example you provided). What additional insights, if any, about the impact of the birthing experience on development, did you gain from this comparison


  • I chose to examine Africa.  Very few births are in the hospital,  There are a lot of low birth babies because certain parts of the country suffers with disease, and famine.

  1. Tarry,
    I would like to know more about your birth experiences, you say they were normal, but what does normal means. Did you have c-sections or was it natural birth, did you receive any pain medication, did someone go into the delivery room with you, etc.
    I also liked to know to which country of Africa are you referring, as Africa is a continent with 54 fully recognized sovereign states or countries.
