I truly believe in informed consent. If whatever you believe is best for your family, that's where you should live. That's what you should do. And these doctors are doing the best that they can with the knowledge that they have. And if you can imagine they've went to school and they've been fed day after day after day that the CDC is like God. And whatever the CDC says is what should be for that child. And

unfortunately, there's a lot of lack of education in that way, simply from time, simply from

the studies that they've read. And they're doing the best that they can. But if you can find medical

doctors and they exist that are just general pediatricians that don't just push for vaccines.

They're open to either delayed schedules or just nothing at all. You can find them. Yes, they're hard

to find, but they exist. Getting pregnant and giving birth are two of the most exciting things you can ever hope to experience

in this life. The moment you think you could be pregnant, you're frantically searching for all the best

information, which is why you're here today. I'm Stephanie King and with my many years of experience

as a professional childbirth educator, doula, and lover of all things, pregnancy,

birth and postpartum. I'm here to make preparing for your birth enjoyable, empowering, and

totally easy. Each week, I'll cover different topics, interview professionals, and get into

the nitty-gritty birth stories from mamas just like you. And when you're ready for more,

you can join me in the My Essential Birth course at MyEessentialbirth.com, where I take you step by step

through exactly how to prepare your mind, body, spirit, and partner for a birth you love. So let's get

started.

Welcome back to the podcast and our reviewer of the week is Kirsten.

No, I'm going to say this wrong.

Kirstellison.

She says, I can't recommend enough.

I just had my third baby a few months ago and I wish I would have known about this class and podcast for my other two. I never felt more prepared going into

birth, and even though things didn't go exactly how I wanted, I was well informed and able to make

decisions for myself and able to have a natural birth in a hospital. Huge congratulations.
