Protecting Birth: Why Parents Should Rethink Standard Practices
Manage episode 441899801 series 3588798
Why do parents, especially mothers, who are naturally protective, accept potentially harmful childbirth procedures? Join us as we pull back the curtain on standard medical practices that can cause undue stress and harm to newborns. We question the financial motives behind interventions like forceps deliveries and internal fetal monitors, often justified as necessary for the baby's safety. Through our own experiences with ten home births, we demonstrate how avoiding hospital interventions can prevent trauma for both mother and baby. We're here to challenge the conventional wisdom that these invasive procedures are essential and to promote a more compassionate, less intrusive approach to childbirth.
In this episode, we delve into the differences between real pain and mere discomfort during childbirth, emphasizing the intense agony that some hospital procedures can inflict on newborns. We passionately advocate for empowering families to take control of their birth experience, helping them to trust in their natural instincts and embrace the journey as a couple. By sharing our personal stories, we highlight how home births can be a fulfilling and trauma-free alternative.
