Enhance Your Pre-Natal Care
Typical prenatal care in the US does not typically support women to have an empowered, confident birth experience. That is because the biomedical model unintentionally rushes, dismisses, and minimizes the mother’s essential role as the leader in the birth process. It also fails to recognize and educate the mother on the significance her mental-emotional health has on the growing person inside her or the birth outcome. The US has a cesarean rate of 33% which is well above the World Health Organization’s recommended 10%, demonstrating the maternal health crisis in this country.
Studies show that mind-body practices help ease physical pain and anxiety during pregnancy and labor, reduce pre-term birth, shorten labor, decrease instrument-assisted birth, and reduce perineal trauma. Learning to regulate your emotions and response to pain means you are less stressed and better able to cope, with or without pharmaceutical intervention. Having a mindful, confident birth is your right, but will not happen without preparing for it!
Dr. Frazee aims to fill in the gaps to ensure you have the most positive pregnancy and birth experience possible. She will augment your overall plan whether you are working with additional birth professionals, such as a doula or midwife, or just seeing a traditional OBGYN. She ensures you are informed and feel you have the tools to prepare for the specific birth experience you most desire.
