When I hear the word Birth I tend to think about: babies, pain, and a nine moth process. Birth is something that I never put much thought into and was concerned about until now. One of the aspects I am truly curious about is the process of birth itself. We are customarily taught that the process of birth takes approximately nine months. A Question that is captivating to me is; which part of the pregnancy are babies lost the most? Even though Birth is the act of bringing another life into this world, death plays a large role of the process. Not only are babies occasionally lost in the process but the bearer’s are as well. In relation too our previous unit on illness and dying I am curious to figure out finer reasons on how death and birth relate.
In our society today religion plays a huge factor on how we view and interpret things. Being that birth is a one of the most significant elements to maintaining the human population, how does religion affect the process and life after birth? When individuals think about birth a considerable amount think about the physical pain. How substantial is the emotional part of the process and life after birth? I believe this question can lead to many justifications of why babies are put up for adoptions and why there is such an immense amount of abortions performed in our society.
How is pregnancy and birth recognized in other countries and cultures then our own?
How come the partner of the bearer has less of a say in the process of the pregnancy?
Which plays a bigger concern on the carrier’s well-being; emotional or physical pain?
