  • 174 | Steal the U|G's unmedicated toolkit, the importance of having different coping tools in labor

    The truth about unmedicated birth is it will be the most challenging, powerful, life changing thing you'll ever do. And it won't be easy. You'll need and want a variety of tools to help get you through to the end without an epidural. And having a variety of tools is even MORE important for hospital birth moms because the epidural is the hospital's tool of choice. To avoid the epidural for longer, the unmedicated girlies bring their own tools.

  • 173 | Why you haven't heard of nitrous oxide (and why you should ask your hospital for it)

    Does your hospital offer nitrous oxide? AKA laughing gas, or sometimes gas & air. Unmedicated girlies love having nitrous oxide as an option because out of all of the medicated options, nitrous oxide supports physiology the most. Dig into the pros and cons of using nitrous oxide if your plan is to have an unmedicated birth.

  • 171 | A second unmedicated birth with her husband as her doula, Juliana's birth story

    When Juliana prepared for her first birth she did it all, including hiring a doula. What she wasn't prepared for was her doula being denied access to the hospital with COVID policy changes in 2021. Even with a successful unmedicated birth with her first, she knew she could do birth even better and with her second pregnancy, she decided to prepare her husband to be her doula. Juliana's birth story starts with a spontaneous trip to the tattoo shop, Easter service at Church on Sunday morning, to catching her own baby (yes in the hospital!) on April Fool's Day.
