What happens when a so`so song gets covered by a funky little acoustic ish type band? You get this song here.<\/a>\u00a0Give a listen to the Mister Wives! Boom. Add it your birth playlists my people. Por why you ask? ‘Cause when the energy tanks in the birth room, having some songs that create an ambiance conducive to birthing is helpful. Example, mother of the laboring woman walks in the room and announces to everyone, “I thought this would be over by now.” Cue the appalled silence.<\/p>\n

\"OH<\/a>

OH NO you didn’t just say that!!!<\/p><\/div>\n

Would of been better if she’d made her entrance to some smooth tunes of Michael Buble’, or a rousing rendition “I want a Hippopotamus\u00a0Christmas,” like this <\/a>sexy\u00a0version. Well, it was Christmas Eve. See, then she would of had what we call a social cue.<\/a>\u00a0 See, even though Michael isn’t actually in the room crooning in his sexy way, the cue is still there to be smooth, easy, in support. All of us relaxed and supporting the laboring person.\u00a0Then future grandmother’s oxytocin and buzz killing words would have had the counter measure of positivity, comfort, and support. It’s\u00a0 way better to start humming along to your favorite music\u00a0instead of shrieking, ” Get out of here Mom. I don’t need your negativity!!!!!!” Sound sets it down, and by down I mean boundaries. Boundaries bring birth.<\/p>\n

\"Lets<\/a>

Lets get a Baby in your Arms!<\/p><\/div>\n

Inquiring minds and all that, and this is how we community share our knowledge. xoxoxo Rowan ps weirdly enough I gave Mr.Buble a massage about ten years ago when he was playing in Houston, Hi Michael! pps I think the funniest song I ever heard at a (hospital!) birth was “I want a Cooter” by Pandora’s Box. Lots of open mouth laughing for that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
