“Failure to progress.”

Just hearing those words can send a wave of fear through any birthing person—and that’s exactly why we need to talk about it.

In this episode of [Your Podcast Name], we’re diving deep into how to navigate the pressure, ask the right questions, and advocate fiercely when someone drops the “failure to progress” label during your labor.

We’ll cover:

✨ What “failure to progress” actually means (and why it’s not always a true emergency)

✨ How to confidently ask about alternatives, risks, and options

✨ The questions that put you back in the driver’s seat of your birth

✨ How to recognize when an intervention is medically necessary—and when it’s being suggested for convenience

✨ Scripts and real-world role-plays to help you hold your ground with grace and strength

Here’s the truth: Slow labor does not equal broken labor.

You have the right to take a breath, get the full picture, and make decisions that feel aligned with your body and your baby—not based on arbitrary timelines.

This conversation is all about giving you the tools, mindset, and fire to handle those high-pressure moments with clarity and confidence.

You are not just a patient—you are an active, powerful participant in your birth. 💛

Tune in and leave feeling informed, prepared, and 1000% ready to advocate like the fierce woman you are.
