Childbirth can cause a burden of strong emotions, from excitement and joy to fear and anxiety. But it can also lead to something that may not be expected, which is depression. Many moms have experienced "baby blues" after childbirth, which manifests itself as mood swings and crying, but such an occurrence in many moms soon disappears. However, some mothers experience a tough, long-lasting form of depression, known as postpartum depression. There is a rare development of an extreme form of mood change after childbirth, known as posthumous psychosis. Birth can be an experience that will empower a woman. A sense of satisfaction and great achievement occurs immediately after the child's birth, especially if a woman knows that she has brought her children into the world with her own strength. The female body is built for birth, and the knowledge of this truth deeply changes the spiritual dimension of life. To observe and assist in this intimate moment in the life of a woman and her family is a special task of a nurse. She realizes a partnership with a woman, provides information and thus helps pregnant women in exercising their right to choice. The nurse is exactly the person who needs to pass knowledge, advice, love, respect and encouragement. She is present in the most beautiful and most powerful event that nature has endowed with man.
