In 2000, the Term Breech Trial ended prematurely concluding that caesarean section was safer for breech babies. The paper was later discredited. The methodology was flawed. The data was wrong.

But by the time the corrections came, the skill was abandoned. Surgeons prefer surgery.

Given the industry-wide lack of training and skills in physiological breech birth, most hospitals have a policy of surgery for breech presentation. Surgeons prefer this.

A client once asked her OB if she had vaginal breech skills. The OB responded “Of course. But if I did offer it, my colleagues wouldn’t like it. So I don’t.”

She essentially told her patient that due to her discomfort with peer pressure, the patient would be expected to submit to major surgery along with its risks and possible lifetime consequences. That’s not medicine. It’s immature nonsense.

It’s time the grownups stepped in and restored common birth knowledge back to common families. Search for a Breech Without Borders training near you. Become a more useful human.

The system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed — it's just not designed for you.

If you want a rib steak with sautéed mushrooms, you don't go to McDonald's. It's not on the menu, it's not in the kitchen, and even if it were, they wouldn't know how to cook it. If you want a physiological, non-medicalised, autonomous birth, you don't walk into a hospital expecting to find one.

But most of us will touch the technocratic system in some way. So the real question isn't "hospital or home." It's this: do you know how to protect your birth wherever you are?

That's what Birthing Safely in a Technocratic Model is for. How informed consent actually works. What you're allowed to decline. How to spot coercion dressed up as policy. How to hold your sovereignty in a building designed to take it.

Caveat: I'm not talking about you if you had a true emergency and skilled people who helped you. God bless them — I wish your story was everyone's story. I'm talking about the routine machine that treats every woman like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Fear is contagious. So is courage. Borrow some of mine.

Here's the part of Canadian history they never taught you.

Before Confederation, the practice of midwifery was made illegal in order to prop up the business of the all-male Canadian Medical Association. They believed that if they attended a birth, they would have customers for life.

Some midwives remained in places that couldn’t afford a community doctor.

But by and large, families found the doctors too expensive and not particularly useful. So they called the neighbour. She had common birth knowledge and common birth skills. Her name went in the family bible as the ‘midwife’ to record the birth.

The new doctors were so unskilled that into the 1880s, McGill's own teaching hospital still relied on outlawed midwives to show its medical students how to attend a birth, until physicians pushed them out in 1887. Let that sink in.

In the 1950s, public health in Toronto went door-to-door trying to convince women to leave their homes for the hospital — where, as a population, women were 4x more likely to die and 10x more likely to be maimed. My own grandmother was convinced it would be safer for her 10th baby to arrive in a hospital. She haemorrhaged on a hospital table and left 10 children behind.

Birth didn't get safer when it moved to the hospital. It got more profitable.

Caveat for those who are new: genuine medical conditions are usually best handled by medical people in a medical facility. I'm not talking about your particular situation. I'm talking about a whole system built on a lie.

No one is coming to save us. It's up to us. It's time to re-train the neighbour — with more knowledge and better skills than she's ever had.

More on this history — McGill's own archives describe how midwives staffed its teaching hospital and taught medical students to attend births into the 1880s: https://200.mcgill.ca/faculties/faculty-of-medicine-and-health-sciences/university-lying-in-hospital/

Interesting information

The standard method for closing the uterus after cesarean delivery, used for over 50 years, may be causing a host of long-term health issues for millions of women.

According to Dr. Emmanuel Bujold and Dr. Roberto Romero, leaders in obstetrics and gynecology, current closure practices—where sutures join the uterine lining with surrounding muscle—fail to restore the uterus’s natural structure, leading to serious complications.

Their exhaustive review reveals the risks: abnormal placenta attachment affects up to 6% of women, uterine rupture up to 3%, and premature births up to 28%. Many suffer pelvic pain (up to 35%), excessive bleeding (up to 33%), and endometriosis or adenomyosis (up to 43%). Such complications are linked directly to the scarring produced by the conventional closure method.

Bujold and Romero propose a nuanced technique: suturing tissues only of the same type, carefully reconstructing the muscle layer while leaving the uterine lining untouched for natural regeneration. Although this new method takes 5–8 minutes—twice as long as the traditional approach—the additional blood loss is minimal and outweighed by better outcomes for future reproductive health.

With cesarean rates rising globally, especially in countries like Canada where 27% of births are by C-section, prioritizing meticulous uterine repair is a critical public health concern. This shift in surgical thinking may help millions experience safer subsequent pregnancies and better long-term well-being.
