Healthy Birth Practices

The Lamaze healthy birth practices are supported by research studies that examine the benefits and risks of maternity care practices. These practices represent the best things a mother can do to ensure positive, healthy birth outcomes for both she and her baby.

  1. Let labor begin on its own
  2. Walk, move around and change positions throughout labor
  3. Bring a loved one, friend or doula for continuous support
  4. Avoid interventions that are not medically necessary
  5. Avoid giving birth on the back and follow the body’s urges to push
  6. Keep mother and baby together—it’s best for the mother, baby and breastfeeding
