Ina May Gaskin Quotes

My Midwife Partners And I At The The Farm Learned By Observation And Experience That The Presence Of Even One Person Who Is Not Exquisitely Attuned To The Mother's Feelings Can Stop Some Women's Labors. All Women Are Sensitive. Some Women Are Extraordinarily So. We Learned This Truth By Observing Many Labors Stop Or Slow Down When Someone Entered The Birth Room Who Was Not Intimate With The Laboring Mother's Feelings. If That Person Then Left The Room, Labor Usually Returned To Its Former Pace Or Intensity.
