Description

Joy at Birth is an academic exploration of the positive human experiences surrounding childbirth, often overlooked in contemporary maternity care. Drawing on authentic stories from mothers, birth partners, obstetricians and midwives, this Routledge Research in Nursing and Midwifery volume examines joy across different birth settings and professional perspectives. The book addresses the increasing secularisation and technological reliance in western maternity services by centring the emotional and spiritual dimensions of birth beyond survival-focused care. Through hermeneutic and phenomenological inquiry, the author demonstrates how joy manifests across varied birth contexts, whether with or without technological intervention. This research-based text offers healthcare professionals, academics and birth workers valuable insights into creating more human-centred maternity experiences.

Key Features

Routledge Research in Nursing and Midwifery series publication offering peer-reviewed scholarship on contemporary maternity care issues.

Hermeneutic and phenomenological methodology provides deep interpretive exploration of lived birth experiences beyond quantitative data.

Incorporates authentic narratives from mothers, birth partners, obstetricians and midwives representing diverse professional perspectives on childbirth.

Addresses the gap between technological advancement and emotional wellbeing in western maternity contexts.
