Abstract in brief
The study explores how midwives understand physiological plateaus during labor, viewing them differently depending on whether they follow a medical or holistic approach, with medical models often seeing stagnation as problematic while holistic models see it as a natural part of labor.
Using interviews with Australian midwives and grounded theory methods, the research develops a new theory suggesting that these plateaus can be self-regulatory and beneficial, rather than signs of failure.
The findings challenge the common medical view that labor must always progress continuously, advocating for a broader understanding of what is healthy and normal during childbirth based on different philosophical perspectives.]
