There are many benefits of natural birth for mother and baby, including a lower rate of cesarean birth and a faster recovery. Natural birth allows women to move freely and choose any position for labor and birth.

Natural birth can take place in a hands and knees position, standing, squatting or in a tub of water. Laboring without medication makes the birth process easier on the baby, which is reflected by healthier ranges of the baby's heart tones and less fetal distress. There are also fewer episiotomies when women are giving birth without medication. Natural birth costs much less and provides better results than medicated birth, surgical procedures and recovery room time.
