You are responsible for your birth and keeping harm out of your way. This is not as ridiculous as you think because what the medicalised birth system in Singapore thinks is okay may not be okay for you. Get a doula. It’s more necessary now than ever.

Thirty-five years ago, a pregnant first time mama came to me, burdened by a doctor's words. During a routine first-trimester exam, he told her, based on her small build and her husband’s height, she’d “never be able to push that baby out.” Imagine carrying that fear throughout your pregnancy. ⁠
⁠
She switched to me to be her midwife. During her beautiful home birth, just before her baby's head emerged, she froze, terrified, whispering, "Aviva - is this baby too big for me to get out?" That seed of doubt, planted by an authority figure, nearly derailed her birth. Feeling her baby's head and receiving some kind words from me pushed that fear away as her baby emerged just a minute later. ⁠
⁠
This wasn't just bad bedside manner on her OBs part. It’s a stark example of how words, even well-intentioned ones, can have a profound impact. ⁠
⁠
“Medical hexing.” the way that language in medical settings can disempower us, shaping our beliefs and even our health outcomes, is sometimes more subtle - and is important to recognize - and know how to navigate to get the care you deserve. ⁠

Listen now to "Have You Been Medically Hexed? The Power of Words to Heal and to Harm" on the Aviva Romm On Health podcast. Don't let someone else's words define your health or your power.
