Author: TMH June 25, 2026 Duration: 30:11
Hey Everyone, In this episode, we explore one of the most common decisions facing pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes.... when and how to give birth. If you’ve been told you have gestational diabetes, particularly if your blood sugars are well controlled and your baby is growing normally, you may find yourself wondering: Do I really need an induction?What are the actual risks of waiting for spontaneous labour?How much higher is the risk of stillbirth?Is a caesarean safer?Are th...

Imagine navigating your pregnancy and birth with a sense of clarity and confidence, rather than uncertainty. The B.R.A.I.N Tool Podcast, hosted by TMH, is built on the conviction that the choices surrounding your birth should be yours, made from a place of knowledge rather than pressure or limited time. Each episode addresses the reality that during prenatal appointments, there often isn't enough time to explore every option or digest all the information presented. This podcast serves as that essential, in-depth resource. You’ll find conversations that meticulously explore the various scenarios, procedures, and decisions that can arise during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. The goal is to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of your choices, empowering you to use your own B.R.A.I.N.-to weigh the Benefits, Risks, Alternatives, your Intuition, and what happens if you do Nothing-in any situation. Tuning into this educational podcast means gifting yourself the space to learn and reflect, so you can approach your birth feeling prepared and actively involved in writing your own story.
