Message:

Can anyone tell me anything about Tuteur's recent claims that babies are drowning during waterbirths? According to Barbara Harper, RN, founder of Waterbirth International and author of Gentle Birth Choices, babies die during waterbirth only if they are left under the water for a significant amount of time after the birth (i.e., after they stop receiving oxygenated blood from the placenta and umbilical cord).

Thanks!
