157 | Postpartum bleeding is physiologic, was it really a pph?
Update: 2024-07-04
Description
Let's get informed on postpartum hemorrhage, so you can make the best decision in the third stage of your birth. Bleeding is a completely normal part of the birth process, but how much is too much?? Hospital providers are terrified of PPH and are treating every single woman preventatively, even when she just had a physiologic birth and there is no reason to assume this stage of birth needs help as well.
In this episode I discuss:
- The current definition of PPH versus the older definition that labels a normal amount of blood loss as concerning.
- How PPH is assessed and what can cause a hemorrhage in postpartum.
- If you birth in the hospital, you will have PPH actively managed. Know the difference between active vs expectant management.
- All of your options and how to avoid PPH
