#233 No Studies Needed: Following Nature’s Birthplan with Michele Kazmier

Blyss illuminates some needed common sense in our conversation on newborn resuscitation with holistic neonatal transition and NRP guru Michele Kazmier, CNM. As a former NICU nurse, Michele shares her wisdom and professional experience on unnecessary interventions within the mainstream medical model and how she now teaches practical skills for other midwives in the community setting. 

In this episode of the Birthing Instincts Podcast:

• Benefits of delayed cord clamping
• Unnecessary interventions in the medical model and how they escalate 
• How emergency situations are handled in community care
• The practice of cord milking and whether not it’s effective
