I don't normally post on maternity issues, but I thought
this article at Suite101 on changing practices in obstetrics was great. A lot of Suite101 articles are suspicious, and this one didn't have citations for the research it claims, but as it is written by
a certified doula who is a childbirth educator, I think it's safe. It's nice to see a doula who isn't primarily about importing native birthing techniques from South America or something. The article covers eating during labor, amniotomy, and episiotomy.
