She's a legend such an incredible strength and resilience and I never learned a thing about her in school it's not right 🙄 had to read up about her and learn about her on my own, EVERYONE should be taught about this incredible person in school.

It’s so easy to love the York’s and Rivers’- gallant, beautiful, fertile, and with a claim to a water goddess. I just reread the Red Queen though and I felt for Margaret Beaufort.

I watched a multipart documentary on the Wars of the Roses. The first two docs were good, but the one on Margaret Beaufort was mind blowing! The one on her gave enough background the two preceding docs were not needed and also gave a fair bio of Margaret. She was a truly amazing figure, far too unknown.

Her POV character of that period is Jacquetta of Luxembourg. Philippa sometimes emphasizes those characters ignored by mainstream history.

I think that midwives of the period may well have availed themselves of the various herbs that aided childbirth................a good experience on the part of the mother meant more custom and to blazes with the church dictum about labour should be painful....
@HamCubes8 жыл бұрын
Many midwives were highly skilled. You know what determines how good a doctor is in her field? Repetition. The more a health practitioner sets a bone, refines a nose or delivers a healthy baby, the more likely they'll be better when complications arise. Because the normal procedure is simpler after repeating it and one has more time to think about solving the crisis. So, the village's old wizened baba would be a terrific midwife. Plus, they did make tisanes, herb-steeped bandages and compresses with boiling water so they were working sorta sterile. The fact that we have a fecund, thriving species is proof absolute germ-free conditions in childbirth might not be compulsory. (So states the germ-phobe. I'm not at all cavalier about germs, but I'm trying!)

I am compelled to stop and point something out: she has a very wrong picture of midwives. Midwives did ALL the birthing up until in the 2 centuries, so they were the ones dealing with hard or problem birthing. They birthed children themselves and midwives wrote the first texts on problem births, such as turning a breached baby. Just because doctors have taken it over now does not mean it was always that way. Pregnancy and birth are not illnesses, so why should it be viewed as such?

It's interesting you say she was very young, but you do not revile the age. She was 12 when she got pregnant and 13 when she had Henry

ana-marija brletic Unfortunately girls were married off young at the time. As for childbirth:it is most definitely not a sterile procecure ( unless a caesarian section), it is not pretty but is painful and messy whatever century one is in.And the midwives of the time did know a thing or two; they used tisanes and herbal remedies as an aid in childbirth.

magaret beaufort,later tudour, stanley etc... was ambitious, but she was not a **red queen being the grandaughter of a lancastrian king yes... and later **mater rex, mother of the reigning king henry VII... the tudours or ap tedwar family were not nobodies or peasents as is depicted, but foreign nobility.... of course magaret had early childbirth but it was common... too debate the actual history and hearsay or propaganda, is controversial, why the books are so popular is that they review or re-review history from the female perspective, so it would be good if *there was a new series of the red queen**...

I sort of stopped listening when she began to speak of the midwives. Midwives, the word itself is Saxon (means, 'with woman.') are women that have been the traditional birth attendants throughout history. Midwives have existed for as long as babies have been born. FEMALE attendants. When men started coming out of the new universities for the first time, in the 1400s actually, they found themselves in competition with the midwives in Europe. For that reason, the midwives ran the risk of being accused of witchcraft and were often burned.
