Hmm - Thank you all so much. Very interesting. I would
have thought that it would have created problems with bonding and feeding
etc - however they probably promoted bottle feeding too??
I would expect that there would also have been problems with tearing
and rupture etc - just thinking that the woman would have no control or
feeling and so would not really know when to push etc and so it would
interfere with the natural process. Just my thoughts on it.
Anyone know why it stopped - I guess it was because of problems but
there would no doubt have been some sort of catalyst to
stop it?
Thanks Again
Rhonda

Queen Voctoria started it. Well, they experimented on her and it was
she that advocated how wonderful it was!

Hi, all of you knowledgable women,
I was talking to a friend today who said that her sister in
law who was born in the 1940's claims to be a "twilight
baby"? Apparently her mother - who has passed away now and
cannot explain the reason - had her first child as a natural
delivery - the second was this weird delivery where she went into
hospital on her due day not in labour - got put to
sleep and then woke up having delivered the baby vaginally while
asleep or in twilight!
The next two were normal, natural births.
Does anyone know about this practice - obviously not done now
days - i presume!
She was curious about how it was done and why it may have
been done.
Any ideas?
Regards
Rhonda.
