In this episode of Holy Confident Birth, I share six proven strategies to help reduce the risk of an unnecessary C-section during birth. Many healthy, normal births end up in surgery due to common practices in today’s medicalized birth culture, but there is so much that expectant moms can do to stay informed, empowered, and confident in their choices.

While acknowledging that C-sections can be life-saving in certain situations, this episode focuses on education, preparation, and advocacy to help support natural labor progression whenever possible.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Why C-section rates in the U.S. are significantly higher than global recommendations
• How hiring a doula can dramatically reduce your risk of an unnecessary C-section
• Why choosing an aligned birth provider is critical to your birth experience
• What the “cascade of interventions” is and how it often leads to surgery
• The benefits of allowing labor to begin on its own when possible
• How managing early labor at home can protect your birth experience
• Why movement and mobility during labor and pushing are so important
