We dive into why the modern medical model of birth is broken, how cognitive dissonance keeps doctors stuck, and why so many interventions are based on outdated or misleading research.We also talk about:The shocking truth about C-section rates and maternal mortalityHow language is used to manipulate and coerce pregnant womenThe difference between true informed consent vs. the illusion of choiceWhy doctors push interventions that don’t actually improve outcomesHow YOU can take ownership of your birth experience and make confident decisionsDr. Stu’s perspective as an OB who now supports home birth, breech birth, and twin birth outside the hospital is rare and incredibly valuable.
