Barrington and her husband Adam Barrington are not in Hawaii for the views or hospitals, but because they are planning on delivering their child in a so-called dolphin-assisted birth in the ocean... Why dolphin-assisted birth? The Sirius Institute points out that research that has been conducted since 1976 has shown dolphins’ ability to improve or heal a number of health conditions such as cerebral palsy, depression, autism and Down’s Syndrome. According to the Sirius Institute, Igor Tscharkofsy is one of the world pioneers of birth on water. 20 years after developing and confirming its benefits, Tscharkofsy began helping women to deliver their babies in the Black Sea with the dolphins that lived there.

Dolphin-assisted birthing could come with the risk for both mom and child of drowning and of awful illness or infection. When it comes to dolphin-assisted birth, Charkovsky has argued that, essentially, the dolphin views the mother’s womb as transparent, communicating with the baby directly by using both spiritual and sonar signals. Charkovsky’s adherence to the advantages of the practice goes way beyond dolphin-assisted birth, though. The Barringtons, from South Carolina, have decided to participate in a “dolphin-assisted birth,” a birth water delivery, in which the pregnant mother bonds with a pod of dolphins before and after the birth of the child. Called dolphin-assisted births, this unique concept involves pregnant ladies giving birth in front of dolphins, with the belief that the gracious presence of these cutesy marine mammals...

Even if dolphin-assisted births were safe or good for people, no one seems to be asking how the dolphins feel about it. More than 40,000 people swim with dolphins every year, and there is growing concern that such programs are negatively impacting dolphin populations.
