I recommend information in book Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom in library page 12. 468 and 469 regarding routine episiotomies study have shown increase blood loss, pain, and risk of long term pelvic floor damage. some obstetricians have only recently at this books publishing question this procedure. You are not off base. You have practical concerns . Make a list of these concerns and begin to educate. Ask your women friends what concerns them in birthing. You will see common experiences and concerns. We as women and nurses need to explore the realities in birthing that are safe. You will be amazed at what has not been taught.

Recommend highly paper back Women's Bodies Women's Wisdom

Hello, ? been in the dark regarding birthing matters. since 2003 becoming educated. No person should be subjected to any injury at the workplace. That is one thing you should realize. If a person in charge implements such a procedure and nurses become injured an incident report needs to be done as I assume you nurses have done this. In proper nursing practices we have to educate ourselves and have a meeting of minds.If nurses are being injured in this process, then the protocol of nurses in birthing is dangerous for you and the mother and newborn. Believe me please. I woke up at the age of 64 with the birth of granddaughter. I could use your education of birthing matters . Do you have a diagram of the fetal and maternal circulation prior to birth? Do you have the diagram of the fetal circulation process as it reverts to independant living outside the mother womb? By asking nurses of the 1960s on up they do not know what I found out.I need to know what protocol and informed consent is given to mothers and fathers in todays obstetrics. From what I have witnessed so far there is a common link in hospitals around the country. I have access to self educated and degreed people who are doing educated research to be published . You already voiced your concerns on this site. Research proper birthing positions. Those that close the birth canal and those that promote safety of nurses, mother and baby. From what you have revealed you need to know more. Thank you for reading . My heartful thanks . Marie
