Have you ever questioned how much control you will have of your hospital birth? I wish you didn’t have to worry about this, but being your best advocate is so important. Having a support person and/or doula is also so beneficial to having your best birth experience!
In this episode, I talk with Deja Ramos, aka Doula Deja, and dive into the most important aspects of prioritizing your values and advocating for yourself during pregnancy, labor, and birth. I would love for you to feel empowered to make informed decisions aligned with your preferences and values and challenge conventional norms!
Key Takeaways:
- Understand your values: Identify values and prioritizes that will guide your decision-making
- Advocate for yourself: Don’t hesitate to ask questions until you are comfortable moving forward to be sure your opinions are heard throughout the process
- Request time: Ask for the time needed to process information before making decisions and emphasize the importance of informed consent
- Challenge routine: Question the necessity of routine procedures and promote a personalized birth experience
- And so much more!
