Know MoreFrequently asked questions
What do you mean by “normal birth” at Aastrika?
At Aastrika, a “normal birth” refers to a physiologic vaginal delivery — where labour is allowed to progress naturally, without unnecessary medical intervention, unless medically indicated. We support walking, changing positions, and using non-pharmacological pain relief (like birth balls or ropes) to encourage gentle, natural progression.Can I choose a water birth for my normal delivery?
Yes — Aastrika’s Sensory Birthing Suites have specially designed birth pools, and our obstetricians and midwives are certified water-birth practitioners. Water immersion helps relax you during labour, provides pain relief, and supports a gentler, intuitive birthing experience.What if I want a vaginal birth after a previous C-section (VBAC)?
We support VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean) for eligible mothers. Our experienced team — including midwives and obstetricians — provides close monitoring, emotional support, and evidence-based care to make VBAC a safe and empowering option when possible.Did you know?
