Words by Eva Rose Birth] “There was a time when midwifes used to love me. They thought it was exiting to have me in the room with my camera.
For so many years I’ve been focusing on bringing positivity to birth ,while trying to reduce the fear by showing my pictures.
I know that birth can be the most important and wonderful experience in a family’s life, but it’s often portrayed as the worst experience a woman have to go through.
Lately I’ve been showing more and more pictures like this. Because this is what I see at work.
Less trust, many midwifes and doctors are giving birth for us.
I believe most do it with love, not to harm intentionally but it’s taking away our power to give birth to our own babies!
If we can move freely, follow our body and the clues it gives us, have enough care and support then birth can be easy!
But our system isn’t built for easy births.
What we need is safe facilities, care and support but what we experience is that the people that should help us don’t have the time to be there for us.
So I have to live with the fact that many midwifes and doctors hate me for showing pictures like this, but that’s okay.
I love them for the work they do, and this is the system that fails us.
To make changes you have to be in many uncomfortable situations and I will continue to embrace the love and the hate I get, cause it will only make me stronger.
This has been my life for so long and I’m not giving up until birth had becoming more humanized.”
