90. Recipe for a positive birth experience 🧡 Empowered Birth Series Ep 1 w/ Midwife Lauretta

To kick off this first episode in the Empowered Birth series we are discussing the most important ingredients for a positive birth experience.

In this episode I chat with @midwifelauretta about:

The importance of being private, safe and unobserved in labour and birth
How the “4 L’s” can pull you out of your birth bubble and why it’s important to be aware of this
Why calm birth does not equal “quiet” birth
How you labour like you live, and there is no “one right way” to birth
Why pain in labour is functional and the importance of re-framing our thoughts around pain
Why we need cheerleaders, and not rescuers in the birthing arena

If you’d like to access our bonus module all about perineal preparation and reducing your risk of tearing, you can find this free to all members inside my online membership the Pregnancy Posse.
