🙏🏾 I wasn’t able to #marchwithmidwives today so I want to publicly acknowledge the #midwives that safeguarded the wellbeing of my 🌈baby and I.
❤️You showed up for me.
✊🏿So I stand in solidarity with you.
Please follow @marchwithmidwives & sign @cheryl_samuels_ petition.
Just a reminder of what those Capitol steps looked like during BLM protests. Miss me with the “overwhelmed” and “unprepared” law enforcement. There’s no such thing.

Meta-analysis from @TheLancet of half a million mothers booked for #homebirth found: 40% <needed CS; 50% <likely to have instrumental; 55% <likely to have episiotomy; 40% <likely to have 3rd/4th degree tear; 75% <likely to have infection even if they gave birth in hospital. Wow!
