In episode 11 of the Birth Like a Mammal podcast, host Lindsay Askins - a Mother of three and seasoned doula-turned birth coach, discusses the main components of a healthy and instinctive birth that is aligned with mammalian biology. She emphasizes the importance of hydration, nourishment, a supportive team, safety, autonomy, and oxytocin in ensuring a trauma-free birthing experience.
Today's episode is pulled from the Birth Like a Mammal birth prep workbook. This portion is included in chapter 3 of the workbook, which is the chapter covering birth. You can find the birth prep workbook on the Birth Like a Mammal website here. It's available in either digital or print form.

Key Takeaways:
- Hydration and Nourishment: Adequate hydration and nourishment during labor are crucial for avoiding complications. It is your basic human right to eat and drink during labor.
- Supportive Birthing Environment: The importance of a safe, comfortable, and supportive birthing environment AND team.
- Autonomy and Safety: Maintaining autonomy and feeling safe are vital for a healthy birthing experience.
- Role of Oxytocin: The significance of oxytocin for mammals during birth. Synthetic Pitocin is NOT the same thing.
Quotes:
- "You can simply drink water during labor to stay hydrated."
- "One of the most important decisions you will make during your pregnancy is who you choose to be your care provider."
- "They can not restrict food from you during labor. That is a basic human right. We do not even restrict food from prisoners."
- "The number one thing that women who leave birth traumatized say the common thread that exists in traumatic birth stories is loss of autonomy."
