And so I think collectively as a whole, survivors, people who had good outcomes in out-of-hospital settings, midwives, doctors, doulas, nurses, anybody who has a hand in this needs to really look at these stories and become introspective. And instead of saying, I'm sorry this happened to you, say, what can I do? How can I make sure

that this happens to no one else because this is absolutely unacceptable. We need to do better. That has been really awesome to see is how medical providers are reacting to our stories. And I think there's a certain amount of validation that is happening in obstetrical wards and maternity wards throughout the state. I know several hospital systems that are listening.

Every medical system in the DFW area is listening to this podcast. Every resident, every postpartum nurse, even anesthesiologists are listening to this podcast. And I think there's some amount of validation there that is happening. I could not be more grateful to be able to be a part of this.

Something I often see when people are talking about the benefits of out-of-hospital birth versus hospital birth are that physiological birth cannot be achieved in hospital settings and OBGYNs are not trained in physiological birth. I was just wondering if Dr. Shannon Clark could speak to that a little bit.

I'm so glad that you spoke about this on the podcast because I think it's really important. Physiological birth really feels like an enigma in a way or like a carrot that we're dangling in front of pregnant mothers going, you can have physiological birth, but when intervention happens or a birth didn't go as planned and you have to have a C-section for whatever reason,

that it almost seems like this unobtainable thing. And there's a certain amount of judgment. So I think it's really important to note and really make it clear that physiological birth is a lot of things. The definition changes based off of who you are talking to. And I think that mothers, what they should take away from this is that you should do what is best for you and your baby.
