In episode 61, I chat with Emma who is a student nurse and midwife who shares her positive homebirth turned hospital birth story.
After labouring for well over 20 hours at home, Emma was forced to come to terms with transferring to hospital. We chat about her experience of a publicly funded (ie. free) homebirth program, having a doula, her long labour, the emotional journey of accepting the need to transfer, and she also shares her powerful birth story, where despite having an epidural on board, she successfully goddess squatted baby Lua out!
