Abstract
What is my story - the cascade of interventions and birth trauma with my first and second, why did I become a holistic nurse midwife after OB nurse (why I am passionate about doing what I do) - to restore humanity, empowerment, confidence, and deep joy a woman and her family can experience in the process of having a baby, and to improve birth outcomes for mamas and babies - physically and psychologically (our country ranks near the bottom among other industrialized countries in outcome stats with high rates of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity and birth trauma, despite escalating rates of cesarean and medical interventions, and soaring costs. What is birth trauma for moms (and babies - that is another interview; 0)? How common is it? What causes it? What are symptoms? How to prevent it and how to heal - for mom and baby? How can mothers take back their pregnancy and birth, if they really want to be healthy and have a healthy baby? How to prepare for a natural, minimal intervention birth, restore calm and confidence in your ability to give birth, tap into your inner calm, your inner goddess and warrior strength and ROCK your journey to birth.
