But if you like, we can rather turn to someone else and pray to Him together, then this might go well’ the midwife had uttered.
I am a man and can’t imagine how painful a birth is, I’m not sure if I even want to think about it.
But I do understand why women swear, I understand that it won’t help to holler ‘oh darn’ instead – I think women need something powerful to utter, right?
Now this midwife has all rights to say that she doesn’t like swearing, I can fully support that. But the way she did it is unforgivable – she destroyed an event that were supposed to be beautiful. Painful but beautiful. The woman giving birth were scared and didn’t open her mouth again during birth – that is sad.
People in Norway have split opinions on this, most is annoyed by the midwife’s behavior but some are defending the midwife. Christians have later today come out and asked for understanding, that they get sad when people swear. I respect that, but I don’t respect people judging others. If the midwife can’t take some swearing she has the wrong job if you ask me. Do you agree?
What right did that midwife have to judge the woman and scaring her by saying the birth won’t go well if she continues to swear?
The midwife has been reported and hopefully she will lose her job.
Today (March 23 2010) it was finally announced that this midwife has lost her authorization, good riddance I think.

Jeg har aldri født så kan ikke forestille meg hvilke smerter en kvinne har, men jeg har en viss idè. Hadde jeg bedt min samboer om å heller si ‘oida, dette var vondt’, eller ‘jøje meg dette var smerter du..’ så tror jeg at jeg hadde fått en på trynet. Jordmødre har all rett til å ikke like banning, men det er trist når de går for langt.
Hvilken rett hadde jordmoren å skremme den stakkars damen? Det er det som irriterer meg i denne saken. Hvilken rett har hun til å si at fødelsen kommer til å gå dårlig om hun ikke slutter å banne? Denne jordmoren er i feilt yrke spør du meg. Det er mange jordmødre som ikke liker banning, men de fordømmer ikke andre kvinner av den grunn. Tenk å få ødelagt en fødsel på denne måten, den stakkers damen turte jo ikke å si et ord mer. Når en jordmor kan prestere å si som hun gjorde så er det ikke godt å si hva annet det mennesket kan finne på, jeg forstår godt at hun ble redd.
Om en jordmor absolutt ikke takler banning og vil absolutt jobbe som jordmor, kan de ikke heller snakket litt med folk og fortelle om sitt problem på forhånd? Så kan man si ‘nei, jeg vil ikke ha deg i nærheten av meg når jeg føder’, eller ‘jeg skal prøve så godt jeg kan å ikke banne så jævlig.’.
Oppdatering : Nå er den samme jordmoren i ny trøbbel, les mer her : VG
Oppdatering: I dag ble det endelig gjort kjent at jordmoren har mistet sin autorisasjon, det var på tide – synd at det tar såpass lang tid. VG.
