What does the term "natural delivery" mean to you?

Just curious what the consensus is. I assume it to mean non-medicated birth

I thought the same as well, but most people I know use it to describe any kind of vaginal birth....

Re: What does the term "natural delivery" mean to you?

to me a natural delivery is how the mother wants it...

i had a C section but to me that is a natural delivery.

i never wanted to go into labor, i never wanted a vaginal baby, i never wanted to contract, i never wanted my water to break... when i found out i was 1st preg with DS the 1st thing i asked my dr bc my sono was will you do an elective C and he said yes... if he had said no, i would have looked for another OB

natural delivery is how the mommy wants it.

Re: What does the term "natural delivery" mean to you?

I have no idea-I've heard it used for drugless and I've heard it used for vaginal birth when people who are prudes like me don't want to say any part of the word "vagina" when talking about their delivery.

Probably drugless makes the most sense.

Natural delivery to me means no medication, all natural vaginal delivery.

To me, it means non medicated, to my dr's it means vaginal.

Whenever I'm asked if my births were natural-they mean vaginal.

If that's the way you see it, fine. I can rspect that; to each is own, but that wouldn't be the answer if you looked it up.

No drugs. But I know a lot of moms will they say they had a natural delivery because they delivered vaginally.

to me, natural is, as it occurs in nature. So a non-medicated vaginal birth.
