Can You Say No to Hospital Procedures During Labor?

Can you say no to hospital procedures during labor? YES! Understanding your options before labor can help you feel more confident, informed, and prepared for your birth. In this video, I’m talking about informed consent during labor and some of the common hospital procedures you may be offered during childbirth. We’ll talk about asking questions, understanding the benefits and risks of an intervention, and knowing when you have the right to say “not right now” or decline a procedure. Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, epidural birth, induction, or simply want to feel more prepared for a hospital birth, learning how to advocate for yourself is an important part of birth preparation. 🎥 TAKE MY FREE MINI BIRTH COURSE: https://www.thebreezydoula.com/mini-c... 🤰 TAKE THE FULL A BREEZY BIRTH COURSE: https://www.thebreezydoula.com/a-bree...
