“It was an incredible experience of oneness with my baby. It was a feeling of transcendence, a spiritual transcendence. My yoga guru used to say: ‘A woman that prepares and gives birth with consciousness experiences the same enlightenment as spending twenty years on the top of the mountain meditating.’ You can experience oneness and transcendence with God. It is an incredibly spiritual experience. It is as if you have the ability to cross over to the other side and then come back and be completely in love with this angel being… I fell in love with him so completely, so amazingly, I would do anything to protect him and take care of him. Now that I know what I know about these powerful love hormones… if I am having the most powerful orgasm of my life I am soaked with oxytocin and betaendorphins.  I was changed enormously. I tell everybody that my 22 year old son and I have never had one single argument between us. I look at the picture of him and my chest just expands, and it started with his birth.”  Barbara Harper

“You have no idea of the beautiful memories I have of my birth. It’s been more than 2 years and I think of it everyday. I wish I could put my baby back in my womb and birth him again.”  Angie de Gaytan

“The experience of the birth of my second child (so far I have 3) was so blissfully ecstatic that a minute after the birth I was sure “This I want to experience again”… Dariya Avantario

“I may not have experienced an actual orgasm, but the birthing itself was amazing. I was high for weeks afterwards. The love I felt towards my hubby, and my baby, well it just made the entire wedding/honeymoon look like a drop in the pail.”  Guggie Daly

“I, for one, felt my body move in the same ways it had while orgasming and I was thinking...THIS is what my body is made for during childbirth. I was HIGH for YEARS on these experiences. YEARS!”  Judith Condor

“On November 28, 2007.... I had the most ecstatic orgasm of my life! Gabrielle Marie was born into her daddy's hands while her big brothers stood by. There is nothing like it in the world, to experience birth in this way. My memories are always vivid, my mind easily finds its way back to every feeling that went through my body as I birthed my daughter. It's a re-experience that runs through my entire body when I think of it. By far the most ecstatic feeling ever while she descended through me and opened my entire body, my legs, my vagina with a pulsing pressure, one can only describe as orgasmic.”  Jessica Legare.

“It is the same body feeling and mind exploding, being able to open, your chest expands, all of that – hundred times more intense then orgasm through either masturbation, penetration or Tantra. It was an explosion from every fiber of my being. I was surprised by the intensity.”  Barbara Harper

“The birthgasm is much more total, much more complete. There is always a bit of longing left when I experience an orgasm with my partner. This was absolute completion – I was everything and everything was me. It is very spiritual.” Faith as quoted in the dissertation of Danielle Harel.
