S2 Ep5: Positive Birth and Woman-Centred Care with Obstetrician Dr Victoria Medland

Clare and Clair talk to Obstetrician Dr Victoria Medland about her work, how we can help women and birthing people to have better experiences in hospital, why language matters so much and how her own experiences of motherhood and birthing gave her a new perspective.  In the UK in 2020/2021 around 46% of Births were by Caesarean or Assisted Delivery (Forceps or Ventouse) *   https://www.tommys.org/ https://evidencebasedbirth.com/ Dr Sara Wickham https://www.sarawickham.com/ Guidelines on Assisted Vaginal Births RCOG- https://obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1471-0528.16092 www.lushtums.co.uk   We offer specialist Pregnancy Yoga, Postnatal Yoga, Women's Yoga and Antenatal Education classes all over the UK, in Canada, France and Holland.
