The roller coaster of publicly funded homebirth, unassisted birth (freebirth), thrush, GBS infection, cervical ectropion, second time mum || Tegan's birth of Remi at home (Queensland)

Episode 66 shared by Tegan in Queensland. 

This episode unfortunately, is a roller coaster & I’m so grateful to Tegan for sharing her story. It’s difficult to summarise Tegan’s story into a quick intro, but how’s this - after being accepted and excluded from the local publicly funded program MULTIPLE times in her pregnancy with her second baby, Tegan made the decision to birth at home, unassisted. We talk about so much in this episode too, like GBS diagnoses, antibiotics, gut health, breastfeeding, Cervical ectropion and more. \
