  • EP184 Julie, Second Birth, Unmedicated Quick Labour & Birth, Positive Hospital Birth
    This week I share my chat with Julie who talks me through her second birth story, the birth of Billy. We spoke last year revisiting the birth of her first son but this story is thankfully very different. Julie expected a long labour similar to her first experience but Billy had very different plans. Julie was surrounded by supportive midwives who were rooting for her to continue on the path she was on to a completely unmedicated birth. A gorgeous positive birth story. Below I have included by first chat with hJulie which is almost a year to the day.....I promised that wasn't planned!Thanks JulieEP140 JulieThis episode is brought to you by Mother DragonW: www.motherdragon.ieE: [email protected]: @motherdragonireland TikTok: @motherdragon.ie Pinterest: @MotherDragonIreland WhatsApp: Mother DragonProduced & edited by Corah Gernon at She Talks ProductionsShow Your SupportBuy Me A CoffeePatreon Hosted on Acast.

  • EP182 Amber PT1/2 Two Pregnancies, Ectopic Pregnancy, Induction, Haemorrhage, Postpartum Psychosis
    In this weeks episode I share PT1 of my two part chat with Amber. In her early 20's, Amber discovered she was pregnant which was later diagnosed as an ectopic pregnancy. Ambers second pregnancy was hard as she struggled with sickness throughout, mentions of IUGR from doctors and also discovering her baby had a two vessel chord. Following an induction, Ambers first baby was born weighing a healthy 7 pounds into the arms of very happy parents. This is where her story changes dramatically as she suffered a haemorrhage and needed specialised care much quickler than she received it. Amber goes on to share her experience with postpartum psychosis which we chat about in the latter stages of her story but we really dive into in the next part of her story.

  • EP181 Jess, Midwives Perspective, Two Births, TTC, Induction, Grieving Birth
    This week I share my chat with Jess who talks me through each of her two birth stories. Jess discovered she was pregnant in her 20's which although was a suprise, it was more of an adjustment to the plan as having children was always on the trajectory. We revisit her daughters birth who came into the world one day after her due date surrounded by fellow midwives for support. We then chat through her second pregnancy, TTC, the joy in seeing that positive pregnancy test and the reason why Jess opted for an induction.At the end of our chat we both get a little emotional but for the same reason. We all want women to have the experience they want, regardless of how it looks. Grieving the birth Jess didn't and won't have is something we go into.Thanks JessInstagramGive A Little GrubProduced & edited by Corah Gernon at She Talks ProductionsShow Your SupportBuy Me A CoffeePatreon Hosted on Acast.
