#344 The Cervix May Be Insufficient But Incompetence Is Everywhere

#344 The Cervix May Be Insufficient But Incompetence Is Everywhere

Blyss is back to discuss all things cervix and the lack of reverence for the birth process while Dr. Stu shares some silly rules from around the world.

We raise our voices against the defensive jargon and standardized procedures that fail to honor each woman's unique journey through pregnancy and birth. We wade through a mother's right to personalized care, and the undercurrents of regulation that shape midwifery.

As we explore the wonders of the cervix, from its role in Pap smears to its remarkable capacity to evolve during pregnancy and birth, our awe for the female body grows.

We introduce our new Patreon feature and respect for breech practitioners all.

Key highlights:

  • Midwives for Women's Health Exams
  • Cervical Insufficiency Treatment Options and Considerations
  • Cervix Issues and Premature Membrane Rupture
  • The Cervix and Labor Progression
  • Downsides of Membrane Sweeps
  • Understanding Cervical Dilation and Labor Progress
