Orphan date February 2009 Cleanup reorganize date October 2008 Midwifery in Maya peoples Maya society is a women s profession that assists women from pregnancy to newborn care. Midwifery also has the religious role of interpreting spiritual signs and predicting children s futures. Midwives are believed in Mayan society to be assigned their profession from God through signs and visions. Mayan Midwives Childbirth is the final rite of passage amongst the Maya that completes a girl s transition to womanhood. As Guatemala is a developing country, and high rates of poverty exist in many areas, women experience high rates of mortality. Citation needed date October 2008 Many of the women who give birth in rural areas are treated by midwives who do not have any formal training but who are believed in the Mayan religion to have received training in dreams and visions. The traditional birth attendants are known as comadronas or iyom k exelom , and receive prestige for their practice. Midwives in Mayan societies are responsible for the ajtuj pregnant woman and her unborn child throughout the pregnancy as well as the week of bed rest following the birth. Unlike other societies in which individuals choose their occupational fields, the Mayan people believe that they receive a sacred calling from God through dreams and visions which allows them to practice their destined occupation. Like Shaman s, the calling is divine and the midwife can communicate with the supernatural world. ref Paul, 707. ref Though midwives are held at high prestige for their sacred position in society, these women are often also subject to resentments from their husbands and children as they must spend a great deal ... and objects related to midwifery.
