In No Perfect Birth: Trauma and Obstetric Care in the Rural United
States, Kristin Haltinner examines the institutional and
ideological forces that cause harm to women in childbirth in the
rural United States. Interweaving the poignant and tragic stories
of mothers with existing research on obstetric care and social
theories, Haltinner points to how medical staff's lack of time,
mother's need to navigate and traverse complex spaces, and
practitioner's reliance on well-trodden obstetric routines cause
unnecessary and lasting harm for women in childbirth. Additionally,
Haltinner offers suggestions towards improving current practices,
incorporating case models from other countries as well as mothers'
embodied knowledge.
