b'In today\\u2019s episode we are going to be giving you 3 tips for an empowered pregnancy and labor, with nurse and midwife, Raquel Chaves. The first tip we go over is information, which means being informed of what your preferences are during pregnancy, knowing what can happen, what kinds of labor, and what can go wrong. The second tip is you need to find a provider you feel comfortable with and Raquel tells us that when you ask a question and the response you get is \\u2018You don\\u2019t need to worry. We\\u2019ve got you covered.\\u2019 Then it\\u2019s likely that the provider will not be respectful of your wishes. The third tip is empowerment. To be able to make the decision for yourself, you need to find the strength in yourself to decide and not act out of fear. \\u201cSometimes people are so focused on what could go wrong and avoiding that at all costs, that they don\\u2019t focus on what it could be like if it all went fantastic.\\u201d 17:47

\\u201cIf you have that trust built in with your provider, then you can hand the safety aspect of the birth over to them if you know that they will respect you and will go along with your preferences until something happens and they need to shift.\\u201d 19:41
