161 | How the hospital will sabotage your birth

The Unmedicated Girlies | Empowered & Informed Birth Education with Fierce Lizzie Podcast

Look it's not you, it's the hospital. The hospital routine medicalizes your birth and makes it really hard to support physiology. Which means it's really hard to have an unmedicated birth in the hospital. And the epidural rate proves it. The good news is, there is a way to have a hospital birth where you support physiology and you avoid unnecessary interventions.

You'll learn:

  • What really happens when you go with the flow is that you hand your birth over to the hospital's routine which usually includes an induction, pitocin, epidural, amniotomy, coached pushing, etc.
  • How the hospital birth looks like birth because you meet your baby, but in reality it is not a physiologic birth at all.
  • Statistics on inductions and statistics when you avoid an induction too.
  • How birth education can improve birth for first time moms, second time moms, hospital birth moms, and moms with a doula.
