About this episode

Blyss and Stu discuss a variety of topics related to maternity care, including the challenges faced by women in navigating modern birth options.

This week’s podcast Blyss and Stu come to you with no guest and no single topic, just a “hodgepodge” of what’s been piling up in Dr. Stu’s mind attic. From collapsing birth options and disappearing breech skills…to food, fear, and the quiet coercion baked into modern maternity care. It may seem random, but there is a common thread here: Systems replacing skills, policy replacing autonomy, and women left navigating the fallout References: Fringe Red Light Therapy: Code BirthingInstincts10 for 10% off ICAN Coalition for Breech Birth Coalition Facebook Group CPT Maternity Care Services Codes and Guidelines | AMA Leaked Kaiser email on Facebook Reclaiming Birth Conference - https://www.reclaimingbirthconference.com/ Discussed in This Episode Oregon moms left without hospital breech providers The dying art of vaginal breech delivery The System That Forces You to Lie Coercion Disguised as Care Ultra-Processed Food & Pregnancy Outcomes EMFs, Fertility & What No One’s Talking About New AMA Obstetric Codes Risks of VBAC with a T-Inscision Risk of repeat uterine rupture Podcast Produced by: Raquel Hernandez, Pride and Joy Doula Care This show is supported by LMNT | Got to…
