In this episode, Dr. Kirsten Small and Dr. Melanie Jackson discuss the place of policy in maternity care. If you think this episode is not for you because you are a woman planning to give birth, remember - you can navigate what you don’t understand. Stick with us as we explore how hospitals are organised, why policies are created, and how they impact the care provided to women. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding hospital structures and policies in order to navigate and advocate for personalised care. We discuss the role of policies in healthcare and how they impact the care provided to women during childbirth. We explore the concept of cookbook medicine or ‘birth by numbers’ and the limitations of strict guidelines in allowing for individualised care. The conversation highlights the need for clinicians to be knowledgeable about policies and research in conjunction with the womans personal needs in order to provide the best care possible. Kirsten also gives us insight into her recent publication, ‘Midwives Must, Obstetricians May’.

In this episode Mel and B discuss the concept of ‘the cascade of interventions’. The cascade occurs when an additional intervention is needed in order to counteract the impact of the last intervention. We specifically make reference to epidurals, artificial rupture of membranes and continuous foetal heart rate monitoring but we get broad and philosophical too. A definite base level episode to introduce you to the concept of the cascade of intervention.

In this episode Mel and B start their exploration of episiotomy. Episiotomy is the practice of using scissors to cut the opening of the vagina to make it larger for childbirth. In Australia, 25% of women receive one. We examine this practice in what we thought would be one episode… but there was so much to cover that now it’s a 2 part episode, part 2 coming next week. They go together, so start here.

Ep 70 - Freebirth in the Media with Charlotte King ABC reporter
In this episode of the great birth rebellion, Mel meets with Charlotte King, a researcher and reporter from the ABC news network in Australia. Charlotte was one of the reporters working on a recent (Feb 2024) media story about Freebirth in Australia. This investigation has been going for approximately 8 months and was released this week in the shadow of the very unfortunate deaths of twins born during a freebirth. The great birth rebellion would like to extend our sympathies and compassion toward the families whose births did not go as they had hoped. Please know that the great birth rebellion has no intention of placing judgement on any womans birth choices and in this space women are respected for whatever birth choice they make. This podcast brings into question the growing movement and industry around freebirth and asks the question about if freebirth is still a choice freely made by women, or is the choice being manipulated by freebirth keepers and doulas and social media representations of freebirth.
We encourage you to listen to Charlottes story on the ABC podcast as she tells the story of what she discovered about the freebirth industry here in Australia.To get on the mailing list for the podcast and to access the resource folders for each episode, visit www.melaniethemidwife.com
