147 | The role of your OB, Midwife, MFM and understanding informed consent

Have you ever said, "the hospital won't let me..."? Then you need to learn more about the role of your OB, midwife, MFM or really any medical provider because they hold no power over you. Tune in to learn more about informed consent and evidence based care and how you are the actual boss of your medical care.

In this episode, I discuss:

• Informed consent is a discussion that includes getting fully informed so you can make the final decision.
• Why I think the term shared decision making actually is making the power dynamic worse for mothers.
• The three components to evidence based care.
• Birth is a physiologic event that doesn't typically need intervention.
