Ep 190: What Exactly Is Physiologic Birth?

I’m kicking off the new year with a really important episode about physiologic birth. I was inspired to cover this topic by our guest from episode 168, CNM Gianna Fay. She wrote to me asking if I would be willing to cover it and my response was - sure… but how? It’s not a topic that OB/GYNs are taught much if anything about. The term gets used a lot in the online space but it’s not often defined. So I decided to roll up my sleeves and see what information I could find. I learned about it myself and I’m going to share that information with you today. In this Episode, You’ll Learn About: -How normal physiologic birth is defined -Which factors disrupt physiologic childbirth -What are the benefits of normal physiologic birth -Whether any one position should be mandated or prescribed -What are the factors that influence physiologic birth -Why it’s vital for your medical team to support your wishes -What makes it necessary to intervene --- Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode190 Check out The Birth Preparation Course Register for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right Way Take a quick, fun labor pain quiz Our Sponsors: * Check out ByHeart and use my code DRNICOLE for a great deal: byheart.com/podcast * Download FamilyAlbum from the App Store today, and start creating a legacy of love one photo at a time. * Get $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies!
