Trying Out Birthing Apparatus for Ocean Dolphin Birth


37 weeks now and I am experimenting with different types of rafts and boats for the most comfortable ocean birth.  I think we have found the perfect raft.  It is a huge circle that holds up to 720lbs and the center is a huge mesh center.  We pumped the gigantic raft up and took it in the water for a trial run and it seems perfect.  Easy to get on and off on, holds at least 4 adults easily, the mesh is large enough for me to sit in, relax, or i imagine giving birth there.  There is even a ladder that hangs off the side.

After a lot of swimming at Hookena

      HI jessica
      I wish there was a lot of information on this topic but there is not. My heart felt this was the right birth for Naiya so I got on a plane and went to Hawaii for 3 months. We swam with the wild dolphins, came up with different strategies on how to birth in the ocean and little Naiya came at night:) I did go into labor with over 100 dolphins surrounding me. It was amazing!!! We filmed a documentary on the entire experience and it is in final editing. You can sign up for our newsletter at http://www.getfitforbirth.com and receive updates on the release date! I too have a dream of creating a space where pregnant women can be nurtured by humans and wild dolphins.
