Send us a textThis episode focuses on two very important hormones that a birth partner should know and understand in depth - Oxytocin and Adrenaline. Both are equally as important to the birth process, but in very different ways. In this example, I am looking at the 1st stage of labour, when a woman is beginning to dilate. This is the time when she needs high levels of Oxytocin to produce contractions/surges. I share how the production of Adrenaline at this time can literally knock a woman out of labour. I also share the Birthability traffic light system that I have developed to teach this to couples in my classes - helping all birth partners to understand these hormones and the role they play.
