Malatesta had also gone through the hospital’s website and it gave her impression that they are the ones who also believed in giving natural births. She was quite convinced that she would be absolutely free from added monitoring during the labor.

Malatesta’s doctor had also suggested that she should deliver her baby at this medical center. But, her horrific experience made her realize that how untrue those things were.

“My first three labors and deliveries were medicated, on-your-back deliveries. After my third child, a local hospital opened a new women’s center. They had an ad on TV where a doctor was talking about “natural childbirth,” and how they were embracing the concept. That added for me a layer of legitimacy that maybe natural birth could be better, especially when you hear a doctor talking about it,” she said.
