Abstract
The skills of talking with women who have had unhappy birth experiences rarely find a place in midwifery education. Nor is it apparent from the literature just what these skills are, or how they can be implemented in the moment-by-moment unfolding of an interaction. Yet this is a vital part of any relationship that offers continuous support to women through the transition to motherhood. We have recorded more than 400 calls to the Birth Crisis help-line, and used conversation analysis to explore the skills deployed in these interactions. We show some examples from the calls and describe how we use our analyses as a basis for workshops with midwives and other caregivers.
