MMP Ep 70: The Birthing Process in Hospitals and Birth Centers with Jackie Reed




The Modern Mamas Podcast show

Summary: TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is meant to be a very general discussion about some birthing procedures you MAY encounter during both hospital and birth center deliveries. This is not a commentary on ALL practitioners in either setting. There are incredible providers and experiences in both types of births, and this is in no way an invitation to judge either experience. If you had a traumatic birth experience, the discussion of some of this material may be triggering for you. In this episode, Jess sits down with Jackie Reed, RN to have a general discussion about what can potentially be expected in a traditional hospital birth. We chat the "why" behind some of these decisions, and also highlight some key differences in hospital and birth center deliveries.
