Episode 26 - Big Baby Syndrome
<p>Have you, or someone you support been told your baby is “measuring big”? Have you felt the push for early induction or caesarean based solely on size estimates? You’re not alone. </p><p>In this episode, we explore how fear-based care, inconsistent advice, and inaccurate predictions can rob women of informed choice and a positive birth experience. Let’s flip the script and reframe “big baby” into what it often really is: a healthy baby, growing just as they should.</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://vickihobbs.com/the-big-baby-threat-why-induction-for-a-suspected-large-baby-is-often-unnecessary-and-unsupported-by-evidence/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://vickihobbs.com/the-big-baby-threat-why-induction-for-a-suspected-large-baby-is-often-unnecessary-and-unsupported-by-evidence/</a></p><p> </p><p></p>

Episode 25 - Doula, Homebirth & freebirth - is it illegal?
In this episode I discuss the role of the doula, restrictive birthing practices, homebirth, freebirth and regulations. It is important that couples understand that doulas do not replace midwives.

Episode 24 - Why Are Doulas Becoming So Popular In Australia?
<p>Why are doulas becoming so popular in Australia? I believe that this could be because maternity care has changed and become <strong>more medicalised hospital maternity care</strong>.</p> <p>This is not an attack on midwives, but on our <strong>broken maternity care system</strong> and the shift to become obstetric-led care. Since the movement from home birth to hospital birth, the role of the midwife is changing in many hospitals across our country from “being with woman” to one that has become more clinically focussed with charting, documenting and performing clinical observations and this is where doulas are being hired by women to give them that <strong>non-medical support and continuity of care.</strong></p> <p>Women are choosing doulas <strong>because they want more</strong>.</p>
