Brazilian obstetrician Fernando Guedes da Cunha is an unusual doctor. And we love it! Use dance to help women relax in labor and help their babies be born, but not only that, but he invents the choreographies and dances with his patients.
A few days ago he published a video in which we see him with a pregnant woman in full labor, Camila Rocha, dancing "Paradinha" by Anita. "She asked for the music, we invented the choreography at the time, and the result: beautiful normal birth on a humanized delivery bench!", The doctor published.
Besides being fun, dancing is a good natural method to facilitate childbirth. The movements of the mother make the baby stand and with its own weight, help soften the cervix to cause birth.
Fernando is an advocate of natural childbirth and respects the autonomy of women when giving birth. Whenever the mother wishes, she is willing to mark a dance together. It is part of a new generation of obstetricians who fight because humanized childbirth is a common practice in Brazil. He has given us permission to share these two videos with you.
