On this episode of the Midwives Cauldron, it’s just me and Rachel hanging out and stirring the pot discussing vaginal examinations (VE's)!
- We take a step back in history to look at how midwives originally used vaginal examination during labour and for what purpose
- We look at current guidelines
- Rachel goes on her history trail for us to find the original research which guidelines are based on
- We talk about said research, the risks of vaginal examinations
- Language midwives could use to discuss VEs in preparation for labour
- The importance of talking about vaginal examinations during the antenatal phase
- How mainstream media influences us into thinking that vaginal examinations are an important part of our labour
- How medical birth needs a different assessment from physiological birth
- I ask whether there should ever be a timeline set in length for a labour
- We question how students can learn the skill of vaginal examinations if we “shouldn’t be doing as many as we are”
- And Rachel teaches me the word furtle!
