Maternal Assisted C-Sections with midwife Lauren Brenton
In todays episode we sit down with clinical midwifery specialist, mum of four and business owner Lauren Brenton. Lauren had her first son at just 18 years old, and is an incredible inspiration to all young parents. She has gone on to birth four beautiful babies by caesarean section. For Laurens fourth birth, she decided to take matters into her own hands (literally) to deliver her fourth child via a maternal assisted c-section.
Her hospital, and doctor had never before let a patient reach down, and pull up their own baby, during a caesarean section. With sheer determination and passion, Lauren pioneered the way forward, changing the way hospital and her OB now offer care to women.
