  1. alternative birth

    Alternative birth typically refers to childbirth practices that vary from standard hospital-based medical practices, usually focusing on a more natural and less medicalized approach. This can include home births, midwife-assisted births, birthing centers, water births, and the use of alternative therapies or treatments like hypnobirthing or acupuncture. The main idea is to make the childbirth process more comfortable, less stressful, and to minimize medical intervention where possible, while still maintaining the safety and well-being of both mother and baby. This definition may vary as alternative birth practices and philosophies can differ greatly.
