From Pain to Pleasure: Empowered, Natural Birth with Guest Dr. Eve Agee
Event Information
Description
"Very Helpful! I feel even as new birth doula it is hard to deconstruct the years of labor and birth as being painful, so hearing this and remembering this is helping as I go into my first birth soon." - Nicole
"Thank you SO much. I am also preparing for pregnancy and birth, so this was a lovely opportunity for me, simply as a woman, to tune into what I would want and need. Sometimes it's not so easy to apply this knowledge to ourselves. I thought the way you presented this information really made it very clear and accessible. Focusing on the role of hormones makes the case in such a compelling way without having to focus so much on the negative aspects of the medical model. Also weaving in the statements about what the baby is feeling (waves, hugs) or that her/his hormones are also being affected by drugs can be a powerful way to get the attention of parents who might otherwise allow negative interventions to be done to them but wouldn't want their baby to endure the same." - Carmen
