in reply to a message by clara
Eileithyia (Eéëåéèõßá) is indeed the Goddess protecting women during childbirth. She is daughter of Zeus and Hera, and has also been associated with the Goddess Artemis.
Eileithyia is derived from the grammatical form "elelythuia" meaning "the arriving one".
The name is pronounced illy-thEEah.
