It is a mystery to me why a Tailor would sit this way but that is what we call this exercise! It is a useful posture during pregnancy and it is excellent for mothering. So many things can be done with small children by getting on the floor and being on the same level.

Of course you are saving energy by sitting rather than standing and your baby likes your company on the floor. I hope you find it comfortable and easy to use. I certainly did as a young mother.

Birth is a normal natural function of the female body. It works because the human race has survived even when it is NOT considered to be a medical event. Sometimes medical intervention is necessary and lives are saved but it does not have to be the normal birth experience. It is too bad to miss the most amazing, exciting and magical experience in the life of a woman.. It is also healthier for the newborn baby to make sure there are no drugs getting into that wee baby's brain and body. Birth is normal and natural but we have to learn how to do it and we have to get our bodies ready for the very athletic event called BIRTH.
I am telling you it is simple but Iam not telling you it is easy. I Am telling you it is possible and that you can do it!
