https://t.co/wjHY6D6hpE - здесь исследование, которое говорит о том, что непрерывная поддержка ПОЛОЖИТЕЛЬНО сказывается на женщине и ребенке, нежели если женщина остается без поддержки. Это доказано, поэтому демагогия ни к чему.

分娩中にパートナーや助産師等による継続的なサポートがあると自然分娩の確率が増加し、分娩時間の短縮、帝王切開・器械分娩・鎮痛剤や麻酔の使用の確率を下げられる。出産体験に関するネガティブな感情も減少。 https://t.co/LXzjrGNGi6

@DevelopChevr @gemminiiiii @rudyurbaniak Oui, c'est le propre de ces études qui ne peuvent pas être randomisées pour des questions éthiques. Pourtant, ce n'est pas la seule étude sur le sujet qui trouve des résultats similaires. Une méta- analyse ici: https://t.co/hzwwx68uCi
