How We Birth Matters: Our Maternal Rage Over The State Of The Current Medical System For Birth and How It's Impacting Women Long Term

from The Business of Being A Woman · host Phoebee Walpole & Hannah Williams

Buckle up for a conversation that MUST be had. We love us some modern medicine, but as two pregnant and conscious women we are STRUGGLING with the information we are continuing to learn about the state of the medical birthing system. Today, Phoebee shares details on the latest Australian Mothers & Babies report showing our physiological birth stats continue to decrease and yet no more lives are being saved... we grapple with our own birth plans, those who surround us and talk about some of the OTHER long term impacts to women on their confidence, intuition and connection when birth becomes medicalised and traumatic. Sending love to all the mama's and mama's to be and healing to anyone needing it around their birth experiences.
