Ep 38: Birth Beyond the Hospital

SPECIAL EPISODE - Interview w/ Maryn Green, CPM (Instagram and Twitter) Five pearls: 1. The desire from home birth often stems from a desire to follow our physiology as mammals and is particularly focused on mom and baby connection. 2.  Listening to women and supporting them, no matter what they desire, is the work. 3.  “Radical informed choice” is the way many midwives support women in making choices. They assess their own benefits and risks along with research, intuition and more. 4.  Transparency is key in serving women. 5.  The world is not black and white (e.g. home vs. hospital) in achieving the best birth outcome.
