You do not have to stay with a provider that isn’t aligning with you. You hire them to provide a service and if you don’t like their service… FIRE THEM! #saynototoxicrelationships #firethem #patientrights #birthteam #thehoodmidwife #informedconsent

True preeclampsia is a medical emergency which requires treatment and is only “cured” by the birth of the baby, so induction is often indicated. However, a failed induction is a failed induction and if BP isnt managed with meds and the body isn’t progressing then the c-section may be indicated at that time. #thehoodmidwife #inducelabor #csection #blackmidwife #italkback #orlandomidwife #studentmidwife

Dads are NOT doulas, and birth is NOT an illness. With the proper care and support, MOST low risk birthing families can have a healthy, safe, uncomplicated, out of hospital birth. Support is KEY! #blackmidwife #orlandomidwife #homebirth #birthcenter #blackmamasmatter #callhim
