In this episode, Trish welcomes Gina Mundy who is a childbirth attorney, bestselling author, wife, and mother of three children.
Gina is an attorney that specializes in childbirth cases. For over two decades, she has analyzed the mistakes that are made during labor and delivery.
Drawing on this knowledge, she has authored the book "A Parent's Guide to a Safer Childbirth" to help parents prevent these mistakes and have a healthy baby. Rather than merely getting involved after an unfortunate mistake was made, Gina has taken a proactive approach by getting involved before childbirth.
Trish and Gina dive into the importance of childbirth preparation, advocating for oneself, and understanding the role of Pitocin in deliveries. Gina shares insights from her 21 years of specializing in childbirth cases, emphasizing the necessity of being informed to avoid medical malpractice.
The discussion highlights the critical role of educated support persons, the benefits of having a doula, and practical advice for navigating hospital interventions. This conversation underscores the need for proactive education in childbirth for healthier outcomes.
Both Gina and Trish are on a mission to change the birth culture, one birth at a time. Tune into this episode for passionate insights and realities for what goes on in the labor and delivery room, and why it is so important to be well educated in childbirth.
