Clive De Carle speaks to Nickita Starck of https://whenpushcomestoshove.co.uk/
Nickita Starck set up https://whenpushcomestoshove.co.uk/ to help women navigate the system and how knowing your rights can help to take control of giving birth.
She talks about the choices that can be made to empower women in the process of giving birth. They look at how hospitalisation is a system that is not always helpful to the woman and baby, discussing different procedures and medication that can come as a given, but can then create a domino effect of more procedures and drugs being needed.
Nickita also discusses the effect of nutrition, trauma and mental health on the birthing process.
https://whenpushcomestoshove.co.uk/ is there to support women through the many choices surrounding giving birth. The organisation also trains women to become certified natural birth practitioners.
