ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Each and every intervention may seem benign, but we have to remember that

There are stark differences in the definition set by ACOG and the community standard/policy driving practice for labor. Your provider should follow the evidence. Its a map that leads us to better outcomes. Listen is as we open up that bag of "stuff".
Chemical messengers. Body Signalers. "Influencers". Call them what you want, hormones are a big deal. We will talk through some of the important hormones floating around and what happens when they don't play nice (imbalance).
Midwifery has a strong but shaky history. Every turn has gotten us to this point. Why is it that maternal outcomes in America suck? Why is it that maternal care continues to be so litigation based? Why does all that matter? How, as midwives, do we feel about it? We will tell ya...
We believe pregnancy is beautiful. You are holding hands with creation. You are literally making life unfold. Along with that glorious miracle, you have a host of other interesting happenings. Changes are happenings so it makes sense for your body to go fruit loops a bit.
