Manage episode 411695733 series 2339060
Have you considered using midwifery care for your birth? Perhaps you have questions about what a midwife does or how they differ from a traditional OBGYN. Today we are going to talk all about midwives. I think midwives are fantastic, they hold a special place in my heart because my own births were attended by a midwife. In this conversation we will dive deeper into the midwifery model of care. What is a midwife? What are some misconceptions around midwifery care? How does midwifery differ from a more traditional OBGYN? What is a midwife’s involvement in labor and birth? Who’s a good candidate to work with a midwife? We got you covered on so many topics about midwifery, if you had any doubt of what midwifery was, by the end of this conversation you will be crystal clear. Casey is full of passion and knowledge, I am really excited for you to hear her perspective and all her wonderful ideas!
To have this conversation, I have Casey Selzer joining us today on Yoga| Birth| Babies. Casey Selzer, CNM, is a midwife with over 15 years of clinical experience. She has worked in both private practice and public health care models including in hospital birth centers. She has a passion for education and has served as adjunct faculty at the Columbia University School of Nursing.
Casey encourages parents to spend time in the third trimester building a birth team and a labor tool kit for a positive birth experience. Nonetheless, she also stresses the importance of planning for the postpartum phase. Although deciding what kind of birthing experience to have is imperative, she believes it is equally important to build a postpartum plan. She encourages parents to consider what resources and support they will need to create a village for their family. She mentions that this part of parenthood is often overlooked, however, she thinks it is critical for parents to build relationships and partnerships that will surround them with community.
