There is only ever a failure on the part of well-meaning but ignorant birth professionals and bystanders to honour birthing women and support the birth process appropriately. I emphasise the following in every teaching I've ever done on birth, and it bears repeating here: when the birth process seemingly lulls, this is not your body in a state of dysfunction. It is quite the opposite.”
