08: Obstetrician Dr Natalie Elphingstone on choosing woman-centred obstetric care, “doing” less, homebirth, and your choices in caesarean section
Manage episode 410288838 series 3539685
In this episode we speak with obstetrician Dr Natalie Elphingstone about her obstetric training and how that contributes to a certain dominant philosophy of birth, her road to “doing” less and learning from and collaborating with midwives and doulas, the question of obstetric care for “low risk” or uncomplicated pregnancies, homebirth, curating postpartum support, and your choices in caesarean section. As you can see, this is a juicy one, and a must listen for all entering the maternity setting whether you are seeking obstetric care or not.
