Somewhat classist vibes, disappointing
I’m a nurse and planning to have an unmedicated birth at a birth center in a few weeks, and I wanted to listen to the birth stories of other women who had done the same. I listened to three episodes of this podcast so far and have been pretty turned off by the ads for the patreon and $395 online birth prep class during the first 5 minutes, then the wealthy mom guests who have all these support people that most pregnant women won’t be able to afford unless it’s covered by their insurance (multiple doulas, massage therapists, pelvic floor PT, craniosacral therapists to name a few), then the five minute ad for some unnecessary pregnancy or postpartum business at the end. Listen to The Great Birth Rebellion or watch Pregnancy and Postpartum TV’s content on YouTube instead, at least they don’t make you feel as if you’re missing out by not buying tons of supplements and hiring multiple different support personnel, while still providing educational information about unmedicated/natural birth.
