In part 2 of Tabria’s riveting conversation with Dr. Anna Malaika Tubbs and top midwife Debbie Allen, Debbie shares why empowering and supporting birthing parents before, during and after delivery leads to healthier outcomes, and the importance of consent and relationship in maternity care. Anna reflects on the direct impact birth experiences and maternity care has on one’s parenting, why insurance coverage for midwifery is a tangible step towards better care, and her certainty that if birthing people had the experiences that she, Debbie and Tabria had, it would solve our country’s maternal health crisis.    The ladies unpack their postpartum experiences and the impact paid leave and midwifery can have (forget dragging you and your baby to a pediatric office - midwives come to YOU), and Debbie shares her pro tips on finding and working with midwives and OBs, as well as her ideal maternity care design, which includes autonomous birthing centers attached to hospitals and direly needed mental health services. Don’t miss Anna’s message of hope for families at the end!  Bobbie For Change + The Breastie’s petition for insurance coverage of infant formula or donor milk for new parents impacted by breast and gynecologic cancer treatment:  https://www.hibobbie.com/pages/bobbie-for-change?_ab=0&_fd=0&_sc=1 Follow Bobbie on IG for all Milk Drunk Podcast updates: @Bobbie   Learn more about Bobbie organic baby formula: https://www.hibobbie.com   And for more real talk about parenthood (and babyhood!), head to Milk Drunk: https://milk-drunk.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
