In this week’s episode we’re joined by Gemma who shares with us her 2 birth stories; a spontaneous labour ending in a positive unplanned caesarean & an elective caesarean with her second child. This episode comes with a warning that whilst Gemma describes her first birth as a positive one, she shares her real emotions & grief of the births she did not experience. Gemma talks about her many reflections following her birth experiences which we think so many of our listens will either resonate with or benefit from - including the impact of her birth preparation, her enjoyment of labouring before going to “collect” her baby, her curiosity over the “what ifs” from her birth experiences, the importance of planning for your postpartum and so much more!

We also talk about neonatal physiology - what’s going on physiologically for your baby when & after they take their first breath. This all links into optimal cord clamping so we cover that too!
