Childbirth is the most important thing happening to a couple after their marriage. In the traditional society of India, after marriage, childbirth has always been the topmost priority for the couples. It gives the couples immense pleasure and real happiness by becoming a parent and raising their child. Soon after the child enters into a couple’s life, they spend their whole life nurturing that little bundle of joy. 

Unfortunately, some couples remain doomed of this blessing, and in some cases couples do get pregnant but after a very long time and after facing many issues. Even though the husband and wife are absolutely healthy and fine yet they have to go through delays and issues. The question always arises that why does this delay occur, but medical science has no answer to this question that despite the couple being healthy why does the delay occur. 

The Answers Lies in Vedic Astrology!

The ancient sciences of Vedic Astrology definitely have all the answers. They reveal the native course of life and prescribe the remedies to deal with the problems happening in the present and those that are expected to come in the near future. Vedic astrology reads the horoscope of a person and suspects that what the stars have in store for a number of aspects of the person’s life. Similar is the case in having problems during pregnancy, the horoscope of both husband and wife are analyzed.

What is Child Astrology?

Child astrology is one of the many aspects of Vedic Astrology. It is highly beneficial for couples who face problems such as delays, complications in conceiving, etc. The astrologer suspects all the hurdles and obstacles that can be faced during childbirth by reading the horoscope of the couple. Let us understand some concepts of astrology related to childbirth.

According to astrology, the houses that are involved in childbirth are:

      *2nd house: Signifies family

      *5th house: The prime house of the child

      *11th house: Signifies gain of a child when combined with 2nd and 5th house.

The houses which make the effects of the above-mentioned planets ineffective are the 1st house, 4th house, and 10th house.Multiple planets are analyzed on the horoscope of both husband and wife for and their results are based on a number of factors such as:

     *In which houses are they placed?

     *The Lordships of their houses

     *All the  aspects that they have been casting and all the aspects that are being cast upon them

     *Their compatibility with other planets

     *The Nakshatras of the planets that are placed upon them

Well, it is not so safe to say that planets giving results of 2nd, 5th & 11th houses promote childbirth whereas planets giving results of 1st, 4th & 10th makes the effects of childbirth planets ineffective. There are some other factors that need to be analyzed based on specific horoscopes and it differs from case to case. These factors include whether there is a risk of abortion or miscarriage, will there be a natural birth or through surgery, the type of sign present in house 5th and how will the pregnancy periods end up.

It is interesting to know that some signs in the house 5th are considered as infertile like Aries, Gemini, Leo, and Virgo. Some signs are considered as fertile like Cancer, Scorpio, and Leo. And some are considered as indecisive signs like Taurus, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius.

Reasons For Delay/Complications In Childbirth

In order to determine what the exact reason behind the childbirth problems is to analyze the couple’s individual horoscopes. In astrology, a lot of emphases is given to analyze childbirth problems. The broader grounds of examining these problems are:

• Malefics: They indicate pregnancy period with the help of Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu, risk of abortion/miscarriage.

• Mars: Placement of Mars is analyzed very carefully to determine whether the child will be born by natural birth or through surgery.

• Sign in the 5th House: The 5th house impacts the pregnancy & childbirth to a great extent.

• Doshas: If either of the couple's horoscopes is suffered by a Dosha (a flaw in the compatibility of planets in the person’s horoscope), multiple aspects of life are likely to get badly affected, and it also includes childbirth.

Wearing the wrong Gemstone: If a native wears a gemstone that is not suitable for his/her horoscope, then it affects life badly in many ways.
