One born every minute: mothers' performance anxiety
Abstract:
The majority of women in the UK will give birth in hospital, and Channel 4's latest series of One born every minute continues to give a realistic representation of what women can expect during labour. Henrietta Otley believes that the programme--now in its third series--has been invaluable to many couples because it demystifies the delivery suite setting and it has familiarised the public at large with the birth process. She wonders, however, whether watching women labour on television may have heightened the performance anxiety that many mothers feel during labour, making women even more self conscious about how they should act while giving birth.
