#410: Labor Preferences, Not Birth Plan! No Apology With Doula Lia Berquist
This week, with Blyss still on the road, Stu is joined by guest co-host Raquel Hernandez as they talk to guest Lia Berquist about the importance of birth plans. Lia, a doula and birth educator, provides insights on what it takes to create a strong birth plan. She emphasizes the foundational role of comprehensive childbirth education and the need for individualized, flexible, and positively framed birth plans. The conversation touches on key preferences to include, such as avoiding unnecessary interventions, ensuring immediate and constant skin-to-skin contact, and specifying newborn care procedures. About Lia Berquist:Lia Berquist, is a Childbirth Educator, Doula, and birth worker. She is committed to supporting her clients physically, emotionally, and spiritually. She has given birth to two beautiful babies (who are now grown/and almost grown) herself. Both of her births were vaginal and unmedicated by choice - one in a hospital, one at home - and feels like she couldn't have done it without her doula. Lia has a Bachelors of Science in Human Environmental Sciences – which equates to commercial interior design - but childbirth has been her passion since 1998. She has been teaching childbirth classes in The Bradley Method ® in Long Beach, California since 2011. In 2012, she became a certified Doula and has since had the honor of witnessing over 350 births. It is her goal to empower women, birthing people, and their partners, through positive, evidence-based education and doula care, to give birth in the way THEY choose.Website: https://www.yournaturalbirth.netInstagram: @yournaturalbirthResourcesDr. Stu’s Informed Consent for Twin Delivery at HomeMilli Hill Substack Article, A life less apologeticBradley Method: bradleybirth.comIn This EpisodeThe Importance of Birth PlansThe Bradley Method ExplainedBenefits for Dads and Birth CoachesChoosing the Right Childbirth ClassIntroducing Your Birth Plan to Your ProviderImportance of Including a Plan for C-SectionsThe Do’s and Don’ts of a Birth PlanThis show is supported byRestorative Roots | Go to https://restorativemeals.com/ code BIRTHINGINSTINCTS for 10% off weekly meal plans.WeNatal | Go to WeNatal.com/Birthinginstincts for a free magnesium with any subscription order.

#405: "Call The Neighbour" Birthing Wisdom From Traditional Birth Companion, Billie Harrigan
In this episode, Blyss and Stu delve into a rich conversation with Billie Harrigan, who discusses her role as a traditional birth companion and the importance of home birth. Billie offers insights into the origins and flaws of regulated midwifery, the rise of obstetric violence, and the increasing stillbirth rates. She emphasizes the need for resilience and trauma-informed care, and shares her approach to prenatal and postpartum care. Billie shares about her training program for aspiring traditional birth companions and underscores the critical role of community support and autonomy in childbirth.About Billie Harrigan:Billie Harrigan is a fierce advocate for restoring safety and sanity to modern birth practices. She has served birthing families for about 40 years and has taught midwives and other birth practitioners in 125 countries. The technocratic birth services industry is out of control and needs a new approach with a different understanding of how humans arrive.To that end, Billie offers training in the knowledge and skills of traditional birth companionship. This is a role once held by the Canadian neighbour who had both common birth knowledge and developed birth skills but has been appropriated by the medical cartel and bastardised into what we know as medical midwifery. Billie is also the founder of Birth Trauma Ontario, an agency dedicated to the education and healing of both perpetrators and their victims from the global scourge of obstetric violence. She has authored the world’s first and most comprehensive online course in becoming equipped in the skills of trauma informed care specific to the childbearing experience.She is the founder and director of the private member association, The Hive Collective, which brings together a community that is creating holistic alternatives for reclaiming our sovereignty over our bodies, births, babies, families, finances, and future.Website: www.billieharrigan.com / www.birthtraumaontario.ca / www.harriganhive.com / www.thehivecollective.lifeInstagram: @billieharrigan / @birthtraumaontarioResourcesDopestick Mini SeriesBreath: The New Science of a Lost Art, by James NestorIn This EpisodeUnderstanding Trauma-Informed CareEmpathy in Medical TrainingMidwifery vs. ObstetricsThe Role of the Birth CompanionThe Importance of a Calm Birth EnvironmentChallenges in Modern MidwiferyObstetric Violence and ResilienceRising Stillbirth Rates and Systemic IssuesThis show is supported byWeNatal | Go to WeNatal.com/Birthinginstincts for a free magnesium with any subscription order.
