Back to Episodes138: A Birth Advocate In A Hospital Setting Is A Must [First-Time Mom, Hospital Birth, Induction]
Description
Sometimes all it takes is one person’s recommendation and you taking it to change your perspective on everything. That’s what happened to Amelia when she read Ina May’s Guide to Childbirth. So she went on to hire a doula and plan a natural childbirth, but unfortunately, her care providers would bully her into an induction, and one that lasted three days. Between a nasty tooth abscess and root canal a mere few days before she would be induced, to a long induction process, Amelia was exhausted. But when her baby finally came, she would be overjoyed, and also happy to know that he was in fact, totally fine. Advocacy is important, whether you're advocating for yourself or have somebody advocating for you, somebody on your birth team needs to have YOUR best interest at heart, and not the hospital’s.
