    Midwife Breaks Down Labour, Black Maternal Health & Everything Pregnant Women Need to Know #midwifeadvice #blackmaternalhealth #pregnancytips In this episode of the In My Opinion Podcast, we sat down with Mama D, a midwife, author, and content creator, for one of the most honest and informative pregnancy conversations we've had on the show. She breaks down whether sex actually helps induce labour when you're past your due date (and what actually needs to happen for it to work), the best positions during pregnancy and labour, and why staying relaxed is one of the most powerful things a woman can do when trying to go into labour. We also talked about what it really means to be a good birth partner as a man, why emotional intelligence matters more than knowing what to do, how to keep your energy up through a long labour, and the kind of support that actually helps versus the kind that makes things worse. Mama D gets real about black maternal mortality in the UK, what the statistics actually mean, why fear alone can harm a pregnancy, and why she made the decision to shift her focus toward empowering black women with knowledge instead of just statistics. She also touched on geriatric pregnancy (yes, it starts at 35), cryptic pregnancies, how long labour can actually last, and why antenatal classes matter more than most couples think. On top of that, she shared details about her new book "I'm Pregnant, Now What?" published by Harper Collins, her deck of 100 questions every couple should ask before having kids, her doula training course at the University of West London, and her Mind Your Own Vagina bag. This is the kind of conversation that every couple thinking about pregnancy, or already in it, needs to hear. ๐Ÿ† Vote for us at the UK Entertainment Awards: https://www.ukentertainmentawards.com/vote?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAacyGXVFaioXbf5eRp36_fKserrOp5l4ALYqI8QuuEWnJI9YTK_N1dwSOZ_bFw_aem_iCn-ErCfGRCWUJhp5OzePw https://open.spotify.com/show/7x50Plf%C3%A2%C2%80%C2%8B%C3%A2%C2%80%C2%8B..
