I’m not pregnant and have not had a baby yet but I have learned so much through this account and feel so excited to know there are more options than just hospital birth. I thought the only way to birth was with an epidural. I was never taught any of this. I thought the only position you could give birth in was on your back. I’m 25 years old now and have learned so much because of access to this knowledge and imagery. It is not sexual, it is not explicit, it is the most natural thing in the world and hiding this info places shame on it. Make it accessible. Have it pop up on someone’s feed so one day it’s normal and not taking anyone by surprise.

I care about this issue because this account shows us what doctors in big hospitals won’t tell us about birth and our birthing options. We don’t always need a hospital birth for a safe and effective delivery!

After working at a major birth center in DFW for 5 years, I saw first hand how they were able to skirt around “rules and regulations”. They employed midwives who had criminal histories and even had sanctions against their midwifery license in other states, yet none of us knew that. When clients and babies got hurt there was no one to hold them accountable! While I’ve had amazing experiences with midwives in DFW, I’ve also seen what can go wrong. The midwives that are doing what they are supposed to shouldn’t be afraid of regulations.

I enjoyed my midwifery selection with my daughter 100%. There were some red flags during my pregnancy care in regards to test but all went well during labor. I believe that many needed to be educated on the difference licensee and to TEXAS and all states needs to hold midwives accountable when a Momma's experience becomes unsafe. Support future advocacy and legislation for the pregnancy, laboring and new life population.
