21 - What is "Allowed" vs. Your Legal Rights in Labor and Birth
In this episode, Lindsee dives deep into the crucial difference between your legal rights and hospital policies during childbirth. Learn why the word "allowed" doesn't belong in birth and how to reclaim your authority over your birthing experience.
We'll cover:
✨ The true meaning of informed consent
✨ Your right to refuse interventions
✨ & why you should challenge statements like "that's not allowed" from your care provider.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone preparing for birth, especially if you're navigating the hospital system!
