Hey, I'm Dr Pat and I am Brigid.
Assisted delivery, a really common birth intervention
We don’t hear about assisted delivery as an intervention as commonly as we hear about Caesarean birth. BUT more than a third of mamas having their first baby will have their baby born with help from forceps or the vacuum. Seems like something we should know about right?
In this podcast we talk about:
- When you need assistance in your delivery
- What type of assistant is used in what circumstance
- The risks and benefits of different procedures
- The questions you should ask your health provider
