"For Women" and their families is a collection of women's voices that have informed the BBN since its inception. It is a consolidation of information women have most commonly asked about over the years. For parents preparing for a natural childbirth in Bangalore, check out our Birth Choices section. For advice in talking to your doctor and in finding a doctor who supports natural childbirth and is less likely to use unnecessary interventions see FAQs.
Also provided are international declarations and guidelines central to the natural childbirth movement. They set the standard for the most recent evidence-based maternity care and help to describe "normal birth". In the interventions section we present information about some common medical interventions that you may not hear about from your doctor or your mother!
Finally don't miss practical offerings for pregnant women especially in Bangalore, including our mother-to-mother support group meetings and the BBN maternal care survey which gives women an opportunity to provide feedback about care received from specific providers and hospitals in Bangalore.
