Description

The two authors who despise home birth are at it again with a new pre-print on the "Enduring Safety Concerns" of community birthing. Does their evidence hold water? The disconnect of priorities by organized medicine continues. Dr. Stu is joined by guest co-host Lindsey Meehleis, to break down the data.Together, Dr. Stu and Lindsey dissect this paper that scrutinizes the safety of out-of-hospital births, and discuss the complexities surrounding breech births, twin pregnancies, and the sacred moments of life and death, advocating for the wisdom of traditional midwifery in today's polarized birth setting debates.They take a closer look at the ACOG's rigid stance on planned home birth risks, untangling the often-misleading statistics that shape many women's choices about their birth setting.California no longer tracks stillbirths! What? We send blessings to and burn a candle for Blyss who had hip replacement surgery today. Key highlights:Holistic Home BirthFetal Death Reporting ControversyDebate on Planned Home Birth SafetyChallenges in Traditional Midwifery TrainingHome Birth Studies Episode resources:Join our Patreon! patreon.com/birthinginstinctspodcastOC midwifery: orangecountymidwives.com/lindsey-meehleis-lm-cpmAbout Lindsey MeehleisACOG article: Planned Home BirthScience direct article: Enduring safety concerns for out-of-hospital births in the United StatesPubMed article: Perinatal or neonatal mortality among women who intend at the onset of labour to give birth at home compared to women of low obstetrical risk who intend to give birth in hospitalPubMed article: Perinatal and maternal outcomes by planned place of birth for healthy women with low risk pregnanciesPubMed article: Planned home versus planned hospital births in women at low-risk pregnancy: A systematic review with meta-analysisThebmj article: Outcomes of planned home births with certified professional midwives: large prospective study in North AmericaBJOG article: Perinatal mortality and morbidity up to 28 days after birth among 743 070 low-risk planned home and hospital births: a cohort study based on three merged national perinatal databases This show is supported by:LMNT | Go to drinklmnt.com/birthinginstincts to get a free sample pack with every orderBIRTHFIT | Go to birthfit.com and use the code INSTINCTS for 20% off any fitness programChristian Hypnobirthing | Go to christianhypnobirthing.com/birthinginstincts to get 30% off Christian Hypnobirthing's Faith-Filled Childbirth courseConnect with Dr. Stu & Blyss:Instagram: @birthinginstincts / @birthingblyssWebsite: birthinginstincts.com / birthingblyss.comEmail: birthinginstinctspodcast@gmail.comCall-in line: 805-399-0439Podcast webpage: birthinginstinctspodcast.com
