It’s better for the baby.” “My midwife suggested a sea turtle birth.” “What’s that?” “Oh it’s when you give birth on a beach, and you dig a small hole, and kick sand on the baby and see if it crawls into the ocean or into your arms. It’s better for the baby.” “You know, I would be careful though, with a midwife. Even though they’re not technically doctors they still have some medical training and I just don’t trust Western medicine at this point. That’s why I’m having my baby on the highest mountaintop in Tibet. As far from real medical help as is humanly possible. My doula is a sherpa.” “So Mena, what’s your birth plan?” “I don’t know…I think when I go into labor I’m just going to go to the hospital and do what the doctor says.” MICHAL: Hello and welcome to Distillations, the science, culture, and history podcast.

Dedication For my babies My greatest pleasures 2 Table of Contents Preface 4 Mindful Childbearing 7 Pregnancy, Pain and Mindfulness 25 Emotional Mindfulness: Developing an Intimate Relationship with Yourself 53 Mindful Relationships 73 Mindfulness in Health Care 96 Conclusion 160 References 174 3 Preface You’re having a baby! How wonderful – meaning it will be an experience full of wonder and awe. Are you going to have it naturally or do you want major drugs so you feel no pain? This is where we’re going to start our conversation. The experience of pain and pleasure are culture bound and learned through intimate interactions with others. There have been times in history when childbearing wasn’t thought to be a big deal, but today many women feel they cannot endure having a baby without drugs or medical interventions. The use of pain killers is now the norm and the number of C-section deliveries has skyrocketed. The numbing of bodies may prohibit the sensation of pain, but it also prevents the pleasurable sensations as well. It is possible to have what some women refer to as “the ultimate orgasm” when they deliver their child. But this can’t happen if you’re drugged up. Contemporary childbearing practices alienate the woman from a developing an intimate relationship with herself during this critical time of personal and role transformation.

Through the tragedy of laboring women, Ma Rongrong’s suicide in the hospital in 2017, I reviewed factors behind the inaccessibility of labor analgesia in China, early governmental attempts in relieving labor pain as a political statement following the Soviet Union, and how and why labor pain has always been put on a secondary place in the context of medicalized childbirth in China. I argue that the early attempts are results of political ideology’s practice and disputes rather than medical progress, and women’s reproductive body in labor became the embodied site. In addition, women’s reproductive bodies are now situated in between medical intervention, state’s population policy and other socio- cultural impacts, shaping women as subjects capable of giving birth but not subjective to pain. I also correlate the recent advancement of labor analgesia with the termination of the One-Child Policy, arguing that the recent governmental attempts to promote labor analgesia as a means to ensure their expectancy of two children per family.

  • Childbirth Education: a Descriptive Investigation
    DARNLEY, FREDERICK JR. Childbirth Education: A descriptive investigation. (1973) Directed by: Dr. Helen Canaday. Pp. 86. It was the purpose of this study to design and begin the initial phase of the psychological-sociological segment of the Pregnancy Helping System (PHS) as elaborated by the Pregnancy Helping System staff of the Department of Child Development and Family Relations of the School of Home Eco- nomics of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. There were two projected outcomes of this pilot study: a) an evaluation of the research tool designed for use in the PHS, the Parental Decision-Making Questionnaire (PDMQ); and b) a description of the potential for further elaboration and functioning of the PHS. A description of the logistics and utilization of, reaction to, and evaluation of childbirth education services extant in Greensboro, North Carolina, as of June, 1973, were seen as forming the basis of the study. Subjects came from three local obstetrical firms and were chosen on the basis of two critieria: a) they needed to be in their eighth or ninth month of pregnancy; and b) they needed to have completed their childbirth education course if they were enrolled in one. Research forms were dis- tributed in the physicians' offices by their receptionists and were either completed there or completed at home and mailed to the researcher in a stamped, self-addressed enve- lope provided by a co-researcher. There were 13 subjects in the study group. , Outcomes of the study were as follows: a) a general sys- tem involving cooperative
