A natural childbirth is where no invasive techniques or medications are used during labour and delivery. Instead, techniques such as breathing exercises, self-hypnosis, and massage are all used for pain management instead of medications such as with an epidural.  Some women feel very strongly about having a natural childbirth and in most circumstances this can be achieved; however, it is important to be aware of the scenarios where intervention is necessary to prevent harm to the mom or the baby.
