As cesarean rates have climbed to almost one-third of all births in the United
States, current research and professional organizations have identified letting
labor begin on its own as one of the most important strategies for reducing the
primary cesarean rate. At least equally important, letting labor begin on its own
supports normal physiology, prevents iatrogenic prematurity, and prevents the
cascade of interventions caused by labor induction. This article is an updated
evidence-based review of the "Lamaze International Care Practices That Promote
Normal Birth, Care Practice #1: Let Labor Begin on Its Own," published in The
Journal of Perinatal Education, 16(3), 2007.
