Every mom-to-be hopes her delivery will go “normally.”
But what even is normal delivery? And more importantly — can you do anything to improve your chances of having one?

The short answer? Yes.
The long answer? It’s not about drinking ghee or walking 10,000 steps a day. It’s about preparing your body, mindset, and support system — together.

Let’s get into it.

Move, But Don’t Overdo It

Staying active during pregnancy helps your body stay flexible and improves blood flow to your baby.

But this doesn’t mean intense workouts.

Try this instead:

  • A 20–30 min walk daily
  • Prenatal yoga twice a week
  • Simple stretches to open up the hips and lower back

 

You don’t have to prove anything — just keep the body gently moving.
At Maternite, we’ve seen that even simple movement helps with smoother labor and faster recovery.

Learn to Breathe (Yes, it actually helps)

You’ll hear people say “just breathe” during labor — but no one tells you how.
Practicing breathing now helps you stay calmer when contractions hit.

Try:

  • Inhale for 4 counts, exhale for 6
  • Breathe in through the nose, out through the mouth
  • Practice during walks, or even when you're stuck in traffic

This helps your body stay relaxed — which helps labor progress naturally.

Choose a Doctor Who Supports Natural Birth

Not every hospital or doctor prioritizes normal delivery. Some rush to C-sections the minute labor slows.

That’s why your choice of doctor matters. At Maternite Hospital, we’re known as the best gynaecologist hospital in Jaipur because we work with your body, not against it.

We’ve helped thousands of moms deliver normally — not by pushing them, but by supporting them.

Don’t Fill Your Head With Fear

Birth videos on YouTube, horror stories from friends — they don’t help.

 

Instead:

  • Attend birth preparation classes (online or at your hospital)
  • Ask real questions to your doctor
  • Speak to moms who’ve had calm, positive birth experiences

Mindset makes a huge difference in how your labor unfolds.

Eat Right, Not Random

Avoid heavy, greasy foods in the last weeks.
Focus on:

  • Complex carbs (ragi, rice, whole wheat)
  • Protein (dal, paneer, eggs)
  • Iron and calcium-rich foods
  • Water, coconut water, buttermilk

You’re not eating for two. You’re eating for strength.

Final Thought

Preparing for a normal delivery isn’t about controlling the outcome — it’s about giving your body the best chance to do what it’s built to do.

At Maternite, we focus on helping you feel calm, confident, and in control. That’s why moms across the city choose us as the best hospital for pregnancy — and why they come back with their second child too.
