Bill Rancic: I'm Looking Forward To "The Little Things" Of FatherhoodGisele Bündchen's Natural Birth "Didn't Hurt In The Slightest"
| Feb 2, 2010 by JENNY SCHAFER |
After hearing she stayed so thin during her pregnancy she didn't ever wear maternity clothes, supermodel Gisele Bündchen is now coming forward and saying that her natural child birth "didn't hurt in the slightest," Brazilian TV channel Fantasticoshe reports.
Gisele gave birth in her bathtub at her Boston home with no pain relief and her mother, husband Tom Brady and a midwife by her side, The Daily Mail reports.
My delivery was in a bath tub, in water," the 29-year-old beauty said. "I wanted to have a home birth. I wanted to be very aware and present during the birth... I didn't want to be drugged up. So I did a lot of preparation, I did yoga and meditation, so I managed to have a very tranquil birth at home. It didn't hurt in the slightest. The whole time my mind was focused in each contraction on the thought ‘my baby is closer to coming out.'"
The Brazilian beauty went on to say, "It wasn’t like ‘this is so painful.' So I transformed that intense feeling into a hope of seeing him."
She said that baby Benjamin didn't cry after being born and rested in her lap for a long time. "It's wonderful," she said. "Never in my life I thought I could love like this. You hear people talking about it, but you don't know until it happens to you. I couldn't be happier."
Benjamin is Gisele's first child. Brady also has a 2-year-old son, Jack, with actress Bridget Moynahan.
Did you also experience a pain-free natural birth?

Sounds like hypnobirth.
I believer her. I had a natural birth my 2nd and 3rd child (albeit in a hospital) but I didn't have an epidural or anything and the pain was very manageable to the point that it felt like a "high" once the baby came out. She is a great inspiration. Child birth is normal and can be an amazing experience. It's a shame many women fear it and fear the pain of delivery. I would do it again and again!!! Being fit, yoga, meditation, breathing and scent (I used lavender) can make a HUGE difference.
The thought of morning sickness scares me more than labor does. I'm already planning what to study for breathing, yoga, working out. The only thing I can't plan for is how I'll feel with morning sickness.
I'm planning to be wherever there is water whether at home or a hospital and no drugs cause I don't like needles and don't think I'll need them anyway. Sounds like yours went well. congrats!
I totally agree with the comment about being "high" after a natural birth. I had a really long (38 hour) labor and when my son was born everything melted away. I was squatting when I had him, my midwife handed him to me and I stood up. That was priceless! The pain went away and it was like I had just woken up from a nap and was ready to go!
I had a wonderful drug free birth. I won’t say that it was pain free or that it didn’t hurt, but it was tolerable. I can’t tell you how good it feels when your baby is born and you don’t have to worry about not being able to stand up or having to deal with them taking the HUGE needle out of your back from the epidural. The pain was just gone the moment he was born. It was a truly amazing and life changing experience. I wouldn’t do anything different. By the way, I heard from another mom who had a natural birth and then an epidural at a later time and said that the pain from the epidural was WAY worse than the pain of child birth. Just keep that in mind.
Yoga keeps you flexible and is good for relaxation PRE-baby, but unless she is having a session while she is in labor, she is full of sh*t. The meditative breathing and mindset would be helpful though. Seriously though, every woman's labor is different...positioning of baby, pain tolerance, etc.
huge LOL
i think it's great!
Wow! I'm amazed at how perfect she is
Love Gisele! I can hardly wait to see handsome Benjamin!
I cannot believe how angry this actually made some women. Its ridiculous! The reason that births are thought to be so painful and they are treated like a medical procedure is because of the American culture. Childbirth is a natural thing that every woman's body is designed to do. Women in third world countries have safer and healthier pregnancy and births than Americans because of the way it is viewed. It does not have to be painful! I completely believe her that she had a pain free and enjoyable birth. Every body should be able to choose their own birth experience. If you want an epidural fine, but if you don't that's awesome. Those of you who don't believe should read up on hypnosis and other natural pain relievers. Just do your research and get your facts straight before you judge someone else's experience. And remember that childbirth has been happening for millions of years and women have been just fine without medication it is only in recent years and mostly in America that it has become a medical procedure. Why don't women believe in their own bodies any more? Its sad.
Ever heard of orgasms during childbirth? Yeah, it happens. There's a video of a woman giving birth in a tub, having a very... sensuous birth. :)
It IS possible to prepare body and mind for it, I've experienced it myself. Anxiety / strain play a HUGE role regarding how you experience pain. You can prepare for this situation and kinda slide through it, bonding with earth and turning pain into more primeval feelings. And you don't have to pay much money for yoga courses to do so. ;) It's more about trusting your instincts and not being afraid of the situation, but rather embrace this part of nature.
I don't know if it's been like that for Gisele Bundchen, but those of you who project their own experiences onto others and hence not believe theirs if they're too different from their own: Consider the possibility that every human being is different. ;)
Thats so scary reading all those "full of hate" comments here. I agree that people should first do research before judging over others. Just because some women didnt share the same experience as you did, they dont have be "liars"!
My mother had no pain neither at my birth nor at my sisters birth...so it really, deosnt have to be painful.
By the way: my mother gave birth in kazakhstan without yoga or other preparation offers that exist in the western world.
Its the most natural thing in the world; just think over your own attitudes and views: being in peace with oneself helps, general feelings of envy or hate in constrast will have a negative influence on the process.
I think the reason people are turning on her is because the interviews she has given so far sound like she's reading out of the worst pages of the "mom-brag-book". Everything is "I didn't wear maternity clothes, MY child birth was pain free, MY son didn't even cry" and so on and so forth. Even if that's truly her experience, you just can't help but give her a giant eye-roll.
And lines like "Never in my life I thought I could love like this" are in especially poor taste considering how she claimed her stepson to be 100% hers and said she couldn't love him more even if he she gave birth to him. Well, I guess she could.
So I completely understand those"full of hate" comments here, because she sounds really annoying.
I think you nailed it on the head shiri! She just sounds like she is gloating.
Agreed! What else are we going to hear from this woman, "Little Ben wipes his own butt" LOL
She said she didn't wear maternity clothes because as a supermodel it's her job to look good, so she did, even while pregnant. Besides, people wanted to know, so it's not like she attention seeking.
Having a pain free child birth must be great, and if the baby comes out so peacefully it doesn't even cry that's great as well; definitely something worth bragging about. Again, everyone must have been asking her 20 questions, so why resent her for sharing her experience.
You strike me as a bitter woman who probably fears child birth and resents the fact that woman must be the bearers of children. Either that or your own experience(s) was horrible. I guess eye-rolling must be your defense mechanism when you're jealous and some other person's happiness makes you feel worse about yourself.
Maybe she didn't think she could love anyone more than she loved her stepson until she had her own child, or maybe it was because of the feeling of joy she felt at the time. Again, i think you're nitpicking her words because you're bitter.
There's no reason to defend those hateful people. What kind of moron decides to read this article in the first place if they don't want to learn about the happiness she felt from the experience?
Shirilicious my guess is you don't understand a thing
And my guess is you're Bonito disguised as anonymous, right?
All I see here is jealousy. Gisele has never said anything rude or mean in her interviews, so I don’t see why everyone is so upset.
Wow, people are easy to piss off or rub the wrong way in here. Don't talk as if you know Gisele or any celeb for that matter. Judging these celebs based on edited snippets of interviews gleaned from a dozen tabloids? Really?
I can't believe people are angry at Gisele for having a pleasant child birth experience. Its a beautiful, natural thing, and something the body is prepared for. IF you can do a natural birht the trauma on your body is so much less than it would be using pitocin, epidural, c section etc. You truly bounce back right away as soon as the baby is out where as with an epidural and c section the trauma, pain and recovery is terrible. I think it is great that Gisele was brave enough to do a natural birth and not a c section with tummy tuck like most celebrities and that she is encouraging other mothers to be to go this route that is truly better for the baby and for the mother. We should admire her and respect her for her decision.
I had all cesarean births AND was up walking, not the next day, but 2 hours after. Recovery was a snap and amazing and I, still, for the life of me, don't know why women have such a problem with the way I birthed! I'd do it all over again! It was awesome. I've got to assume it's jealousy that my babies are here and healthy while other women were ripped and torn. What other explanation is there for all of this pompous self-righteousness, lol??

Forty years ago, [url=http://www.mycheapedhardy.com/]Don Ed hardy[/url]blew off a Yale fine-art fellowship to pursue the rogue art of tattoo, a timeless and often taboo tradition that captivated him as a boy in the Orange County beach town of Corona del Mar.

At the San Francisco Art Institute in the early '60s, Hardy mastered the demanding art of intaglio etching under the tutelage of the late Gordon Cook, a no-jive blue-collar guy who instilled in Hardy a love of craft, Asian art and the quiet power of Giorgio Morandi's little still life pictures.
