Watch The Amazing Moment a Baby Boy 'Walks' From His Mother's Stomach in The Latest Birthing Trend Of 'Natural Caesareans'

Wriggling clear: The baby removes himself from his mother's stomach by slowly moving his body clear through an incision made during the caesareanGreat escape: The baby cried throughout the process before being embraced by his mother
The latest trend to emerge among mothers is a mixture of both types of birthing methods.
A video posted to Facebook by childbirth educator Sophie Messager shows a woman delivering her son by 'nautral caesarean' - and the results are incredible.


A friend had the most gorgeous gentle cesarean yesterday-it was quite a journey because her local hospital refused to entertain any of her wishes, so she had to move to another hospital where she found the most supportive consultant (Dr Andy Simm at Nottingham City hospital), who not only agreed to support all her wishes but filmed the birth to use it to educate other health pros. I especially loved watching the baby walking himself out of the womb. The mum also told me that they waited until the cord had finished pulsating before clamping it. For me this really shows how it isn't how the baby is born but how the people present respect wishes and demonstrate support and kindness that makes a beautiful birth. The mother has kindly agreed for me to share the video so other women can have such a beautiful experience too.
The official hospital film should be released in a week or 2.
These were the mother's wishes:
* no drapes
* walking out of the baby to help clear lungs
* delivery to chest if cord allowed
* cord left to stop pulsing before cutting
* no weighing or measuring until family ready
* baby to stay on mum until she was ready to part (it was 6 hours). Even when pat sliding to transfer.
* own music
* lights reduced
On top of that, the anaesthetist lifted the mother's shoulders and someone held a mirror to help view the birth.

The video shows the baby effectively delivering himself, progressively wriggling his way clear of his mother's stomach through an incision made during the caesarean.
Doctors and nurses look on as the newborn slowly emerges, removing his head followed by his shoulders and then the full body.
'Oh look at him,' the mother can be heard to say as her son emerges from within her
