...However, research has demonstrated that "the restriction of food and liquid intake during labor does not guarantee reduced stomach content (WHO, p. 9).1 The American Society of Anesthesiologists acknowledges that "oral intake of clear liquids during labor improves maternal comfort and satisfaction" (Goer, p. 251).2 When self-regulated by thirst, the intake of fluids causes no harm.10 The energy requirements of labor are much like that of a marathon. If a mother is to birth, she must be hydrated and fed to meet the demanding work of labor and birth. Both maternal and fetal well-being require an address of a mother's nutritional needs during birth.11 In 2007, researchers Parsons, Bidewell, & Griffiths concluded that "With the lack of reliable evidence to support any type of diet for women in labour... the best practice may be to leave the decision about oral intake to the instincts of the women who are in labour" (p.137).12"
