Ep #002: The Memo on: Why Where & Who You Birth With Matters

The Midwife Memos with Lauretta Hamilton - Podcast

Breaking down the stats on birth outcomes by model of care and why this choice can shape your entire experience.

One of the biggest decisions you’ll make in pregnancy is one you might not even realise you’re making early on—who will care for you and where you’ll give birth.

Your care provider and birth setting have a huge impact on your labour and birth experience, but many women make this choice without knowing how different care models affect their chances of interventions, inductions, or spontaneous vaginal birth.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the latest AIHW data on birth outcomes across public and private hospitals, birth centres, and home births, plus what research tells us about midwifery-led care vs. obstetric-led care.
