Mod Midwives: a Metro Midwifery PodcastNormalizing Breastfeeding or Breastfeeding Problems?This week, a new commercial by Frida Mom hit the airwaves during the Golden Globes. This ad is being applauded for normalizing breastfeeding. It certainly shows a real, raw glimpse of those early days as a nursing parent. We absolutely agree that it did a great job of pushing boundaries that needed to be pushed. But did it really show what the early days of nursing is like for most people? Was it so raw that it makes breastfeeding look scary and unappealing? Instead of portraying a realistic point of view, did it instead portray a point of view where...2021-03-0332 min
Mod Midwives: a Metro Midwifery PodcastCommunity Birth and Cultural NormsDespite the increased popularity of community birth (which includes home and birth center births), it still represents a very small minority of births in the US.

Mod Midwives: a Metro Midwifery PodcastPractical Advice for Midwifery Practice: Managing Your Client LoadOne thing we didn't mention in the podcast was that even if you schedule one person's due date each week, there is no way to predict when people will deliver (with a 5 week window of "full term"), and, consequently, no way to avoid the possibility of births overlapping--even with one person due per month. However, the more clients you have due, the more likely it is that this can happen. So, backup considerations must be factored into your client load as well.
We also talk about a variety of other considerations: impacts on your family, planning vacations, how much is...2021-01-2626 min
Mod Midwives: a Metro Midwifery PodcastMidwives in the MediaAfter the recent release of the Netflix movie, "Pieces of a Woman," Gina and Nedra decided we simply had to watch it and discuss on Mod Midwives.

While the subject matter is tough, and we have a number of issues about the specifics, the movie did unfold differently than we expected it to do.
We also spend a shorter time discussing Midwives, by Chris Bohjalian, Call the Midwife, and Virgin River, a new Netflix series.
Fair warning: there are a TON of spoilers in...2021-01-1948 min

Mod Midwives: a Metro Midwifery PodcastStrands of HopeMuch like last year, we are spending the last podcast of the year reflecting upon the year that has passed and looking forward to the next year with intention. We find the idea of setting resolutions for 2021 to be somewhat laughable after the year we've all had, so, instead, we are talking about our "strands of hope" for the new year. If we've learned anything from 2020, it was to let go of our expectations and just do the best we can. You can find more on this week's blog: https://metromidwifery.com/?p=38862020-12-2938 min
