    hi all

    has anyone here birthed whilst raw and found it very different to when you ate cooked foods?

    I ask because I am due to birth this month,I am having my first raw month :)

    Hi, I don't have any babies. But in a raw recipe book I have (can't remember the name right now) a woman talks about her experiences with raw and says that her pregnancies, deliveries, labor, etc. were much easier and less painful when she was raw compared to her deliveries, etc. while SAD. I believe however that she was raw the majority of her pregnancy not just for one month.

    There a few who have experienced this ... im actually due in jan and am now on day fifty one . Jingee is the name of one of the women who has experienced raw food births more then once , she said that her raw pregnancies were shorter and much easier labors . almost enjoyable yet her vegan or cooked pregnancies were much longer and harder on her . she also enjoyed a shorter healing process from the raw then from the cooked . her weight returned to normal within the first 3-6 wks instead of having the horrible baby belly bulge that never seems to want to leave . she also was able to only gain 15 to 20 lbs versus the 25-50 lbs that most women do on the standard american diet . u should be a little more energetic and peaceful scince u have only been doing raw for a month (mind u this is my opion , im not a doctor or expert ) good luck .
