Description: Our increased knowledge and appreciation of hypermobile Ehlers - Danlos syndrome (h EDS) has been making headlines across medical research and practice. Stretched to the Limits is the first text to apply this new understanding directly to midwifery. The book details the effects of h EDS on the different bodily systems and the implications for pregnancy labour birth and postnatally. Midwives and doulas are likely at some point in their careers to come across women with this most common sub - type. h EDS affects at least 1 in 5,000 women but they frequently find themselves on a care pathway more suitable for those with other rarer subtypes such as classic EDS (c EDS) or vascular EDS (v EDS). Additionally much of the advice detailed here will also help to support the 20% of the population with more generalised hypermobility. This book is therefore essential reading for empowering midwives and doulas to feel confident in their understanding of h EDS so that they can best inform and support their clients and colleagues with the most appropriate care. It will also provide a valuable resource for those with h EDS to share with their care team and advocate for their needs when planning pregnancy and birth.
