Today I am bringing to you a very important conversation about making decisions with our health providers, and exercising what is called informed consent. Many of us, when pregnant with our first child, have never even set foot in a hospital or needed to make decisions about tests, procedures, vaccinations and interventions. I believe the biggest mistake people make is handing over their decision making to the health professionals, without considering our own choices and what feels right for us. I loved Alexandra’s message, as it is free from giving opinions and more about collecting vital information from the makers of the products and accessible through our government agencies.
