222 | Birth - The forgotten issue of Feminism with attorney and human rights advocate Hermine Hayes-Klein

In this episode, Thea speaks with American attorney and advocate
Hermine Hayes-Klein about Human Rights and Bodily Autonomy in
pregnancy and childbirth and what both pregnant women and
midwifes can do to protect their rights.


Thea experienced violations of her bodily autonomy during her
first birth that resulted in an unwanted c-section. In her second
pregnancy, she was confronted with the limited choice of midwives
for a home birth after cesarian (HBAC) after her chosen midwife
was unable to continue her care half way through the pregnancy
after the midwife was accused by the state of Austria of causing
the death of a new born baby.
