Given that modern medicine is more akin to a hamster wheel void of intuition than an industry that’s committed to learning and designed to help people, the thought of battling it can quickly become overwhelming. Today, Dr. Stu & Blyss continue to critique policy-makers, as well as pop-culture’s latest depiction of breech birth. The balance is restored by some incredibly uplifting birth stories from listeners that remind us that it is indeed possible to make a difference in this world, one birth at a time. Dr. Stu also shares some recent studies about herpes during pregnancy and makes his latest recommendations for mothers with the virus.

In this episode of Birthing Instincts:

• An incredible parking lot breech delivery story guided by an avid “Birthing Instincts” listener
• Pondering the latest CDC recommendations
• Responding to Dr. Alrahmani’s IG post condemning home birth
• Tips for women who are Herpes positive and pregnant
