I was pregnant for 10 months

Hello everyone!well, this is the link of "my" "article history", is very interesting because is about my career xD:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/oct/01/pregnant-for-10-months

This article is about "long pregnancies",and the possible induction that makes them.
(is) It's known that pregnancies over 40 weeks are post termand exist studies that talk of a possible fetal damage...this is the conflict in this article, induction or not induction.
The US midwifery guru Ina May Gaskin believes that every baby will come in it is own time, and she is currently campaigning for 43 weeks – rather than 42 – as the definition of "late"...
The article shows that the inducction (for example: rupture of membrane)can bring serious consequences to the fetus, especially in his head, which receives all the pressure of the uterine contraction; this produce plastic deformation in the head (bones of the head),neuronal damage for compression, etc. In the article, the midwife said:
"Also, as Hart argues, induction is hardly risk-free: it carries higher rates of caesarean section, uterine rupture, foetal distress and maternal haemorrhage..."
In this history, Viv talks about her experience with her children (Jack) and the pregnancy (43 weeks) and she says that more women preffer cesarea; because is painless, and very fast, but cesarea..like induction, are innecesary in a physiological process like "pregnant".

In my opinion, the pregnant is a normal process, and the “pacha mama” is very inteligent. Is not necessary induction or other medicalization...ONLY IF THE NORMAL PREGNANCY (not only women need to be induction).
This new is very interesting, because now, in the world, exist a beautiful process in the obstetric area…”Humatination” where include mother,father,family and the new baby.
