Have you ever wondered how preeclampsia is handled by midwives? Or how you can prevent it from occurring in the first place? Today on the podcast, Dr. Morgan interviews Tiffany Alblinger, a homebirth midwife with Beautiful One Midwifery in San Diego, and we talk all about preeclampsia through a midwifery model of care lens. We discuss the basic things, like what it is, what the symptoms are, and how you might come to be diagnosed – but then we also talk about prevention from a holistic point of view – and what can be done if you’d had preeclampsia in a previous pregnancy and don’t want to get it again. Tiffany explains how she uses a functional medicine approach to looking at a woman’s whole diet and lifestyle to work at optimizing birth outcomes from before they even become pregnant, and then what she does to support them if the body is showing signs of tracking toward preeclampsia. It’s a fascinating conversation, so let’s jump in!
