The Negative Influence of Stress on Labor and What You Can Do About It
Manage episode 392806192 series 3410734
Ever wondered how the stress you're feeling could actually pause the miraculous process of childbirth? I’m peeling back the layers to reveal the unseen effects of stress on labor. This episode takes you through the science of stress and its ability to disrupt the delicate dance of hormones necessary for labor to progress. It's a discussion that promises not just insights but transformational tools for an empowering entrance into parenthood.
Transitioning smoothly, we then spotlight the immense value of emotional preparedness as you step onto the threshold of birth. It’s not just about the physical readiness, but arming yourself with the emotional resilience to claim a birth experience that is as serene as it is powerful. Listen as I explore the intersection of mind, body, and the birthing journey.

This podcast is intended as a safe space for women to share their birth experiences. It is not intended to provide medical advice. Each woman’s medical course of action is individual and may not appropriately transfer to another similar situation. Please speak to your medical provider before making any medical decisions. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that evidence based practice evolves as our knowledge of science improves. To the best of my ability I will attempt to present the most current ACOG and AWHONN recommendations at the time the podcast is recorded, but that may not necessarily reflect the best practices at the time the podcast is heard. Additionally, guests sharing their stories have the right to autonomy in their medical decisions, and may share their choice to go against current practice recommendations. I intend to hold space for people to share their decisions. I will attempt to share the current recommendations so that my audience is informed, but it is up to each individual to choose what is best for them.
