For along time now, I’ve wondered about “radical” midwives, and their role in the deaths of babies.
What I’m wondering about - are they providing a supply of babies who have died? Their actions increase overall the number of babies who die at birth or are stillborn. They also could provide a route for satanists to acquire the bodies.
Unlike normal midwives in hospital, these radical midwives encourage women to have risky births. Their main promotional activity online concentrates on encouraging women to have babies at home regardless of risk. They make lots of money from homebirth. However, they also like women delivering alone - “freebirth” without any help. And there’s no money in freebirth.
If asked why they encourage these actions, these radical midwives talk about women’s choice and the patriarchy. They don’t talk about large amounts of money or dead babies bodies.
They seem to be unbothered by the prospect of a dead baby.
If the baby dies at home and is undocumented, who then checks? What happens to the body? Do they cover some of them up? If the woman freebirths, what happens if the baby dies? Who checks? What happens to the bodies?
Satanists?
They used to burn these women as witches a few hundred years ago. Why?
Some names:
Ina May Gaskin
Founded the farm midwifery centre in Tennessee for non-hospital births. Writer of the bible for homebirth “Spiritual Midwifery”. Nonsensical statistics on the website. Last statistics quoted for mortality were for 1970- 1979. No figures since then - see their website. Where do they bury the dead babies? Do they bury them? Does the Farm need to be dug up?
