Fit and Fearless Birth – Better Birth In America
Ginger has just joined the expert panel of bloggers on the People magazine blogroll site, Modern Mom.
America ranks far behind all other developed nations in maternity care and outcomes. Ginger’s multi-generational interviews with mothers support those statistics. Moms have reported feeling sadness, depression, regret, fear, and outright anger at how they were treated during their pregnancy and birth experience.
Ginger is a proponent of using physical therapy and yoga during pregnancy and birth, which is currently rarely used in conventional maternal medicine. Even physical therapy is rarely prescribed during pregnancy and postpartum, something Ginger aims to change.
Ginger strongly supports a holistic, mother-centered approach to birth, where a woman in in charge and fully informed of her choices during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Right now in America, expectant and laboring mothers are often scared into making choices they do not want.
