Today we are talking about how to avoid unnecessary interventions in labor. We'll learn some common interventions, shedding light on their impact, risks, and alternatives.
Why should we question routine interventions? Because evidence suggests that many of these practices, when used routinely, may not improve outcomes and can even lead to complications. It's essential to empower yourself with knowledge, enabling informed conversations with your medical team.
In this episode, we dive into the following:
- Common routine interventions in the United States
- The facts about safety for eating and drinking during labor
- The evidence on electronic fetal monitoring vs. hands-on listening for baby's heart rate
- The use of Pitocin to augment (speed up labor)
