In today’s episode, we talk with Dr. Sean Edmunds, an OB practicing in Utah. We discuss topics such as breech delivery, delivering twins, and the importance of building trust between patient and medical provider. We go over several examples of when and how patients and medical providers can work things out and resolve conflict. We also answer several questions surrounding preeclampsia, active management of the placenta, coached pushing with Epidurals, and the MTHFR mutation. We discuss the reasons behind common methods of checking, as well as the use of Lidocaine on the Perineum, the crowning process, and the influence of liability insurance on medical practice.

“Whatever they’re comfortable with, I’m comfortable with. And they have questions, I want them to ask. And we have those discussions sometimes, where they say, ‘Okay, here’s my birth plan. Can we look at it together?’ And I always look at every bullet -- every bullet point they make, so that we have a discussion in advance.” 14:10
