The History of Birth: What Nobody Teaches Us About Pain, Interventions & Social Trends
Birth has always been political — and the history proves it. In this episode, Natasha and Taylor walk through the moments that shaped modern childbirth: from forceps kept secret for generations and twilight sleep women marched in the streets for, to the smear campaign against midwives, Victoria Beckham's "too posh to push" media spiral, and why we're still giving birth flat on our backs. Plus: what changed after thalidomide, the episiotomy data ACOG doesn't lead with, and the latest invention in childbirht: the OdonAssist.
Evidence-based and yes — there's a chainsaw.
