About

Vinita Mansata's journey towards advocating for natural childbirth at home is a testament to the power of personal experience and determination. Disappointed by a typical caesarean delivery years ago, this with a vertical scar, Vinita ji found herself yearning for a different birthing experience, one that honored the natural process of childbirth and empowered women to make informed choices about their bodies.Vinita ji intuitively went on to look for people, the Aam Admi who in her own words were  ' not spoilt by the system' and had first hand experience with natural birth in its true sense- the local vendors and gardeners etc.She was empowered by their wisdom and did not look for a gynaecologist the second time at all also refusing all tests and ultrasounds.  She did meet resistance from her mother for her choice of birth as well as parenting choices outside of allopathy and any other alternative modalities.We discuss in detail about1. Journey of her decision of a home birth some 30 years ago.2. Details of the home birth and postpartum.2. Choices to relook illness for children and allow body to heal on its own.3. Choosing not to vaccinate both her children and breastfeeding the younger one for 6 years4. The wisdom of the traditional birth keeper and the absurdity of the radiologist.Tune in to listen to the story of her birth, the born free movement which is not knew, which began some three decades ago, sounds surreal right?About the Guest: Vinita Mansata is an independent publisher by the name Earthcare Books and runs a bookstore called Earthcare Bookstore. Support the showSign up for Childbirth Preparation Programs! visit www.birthagni.com/birthclassesSupport the show:Donations (India) - https://birthagni.com/birthagnipodcast#podcast-listDonations (world) - buymeacoffee.com/birthagni If you like what you hear, leave us a rating on Spotify app and answer the question at each episode! a review on Apple podcasts.
