In this discussion we will explore cultural variations in the birth experience.
First, please watch the 2 videos linked below – one is a birth occurring in Kenya, the other is a birth occurring in Vietnam.
The traditional midwives of Isiolo
Birthrights – The Mountain Midwives of Vietnam
(For this one – Vietnam – you are welcome to skip forward to 17:00 when the woman is in labor though the entire video is very interesting to watch)
DISCUSSION ASSIGNMENT
1. Reflect on the birth experiences of the 2 women in the videos as compared to normative birth experiences in the US. (If you are unsure about birth in the US, there are plenty of videos on YouTube you can watch). Specifically, what stood out to you in each of the videos as positive? What stood out to you in each of the videos as troubling/negative?
2. Go online and look up birth experiences from another culture. Post the culture you researched and a very brief summary of the information you found.
3. Based on the information you saw in the videos, read in the text and in the beginning of this assignment, and what you found through your research, are there things you feel are especially important for childbirth REGARDLESS of cultural norms? What are they?
