Chatting homebirth history in Australia & the future of homebirth with Jo Hunter from Birth Time

In this months midwife story episode, I chat with Jo Hunter who many of you may know from being one of the creators of Birth Time (& if you haven’t seen it, it’s essentially mandatory for anyone planning to give birth). She is also a homebirth midwife, former doula & former convener for Homebirth Australia.,,just to name a couple of things she has done. I invited Jo to come and chat with me to give some context around homebirth in Australia in the past 30 or so years, also given that 3 of her 4 children were born at home in the late 90’s and early 2000’s and to also talk about the current issues affect homebirth in Australia right now. The issue around Public Indemnity Insurance for private midwives, including homebirth attending midwives is evolving as the weeks go by, so make sure to follow Homebirth Australia and join their newsletter for the most up-to-date information. I hope you love this episode as much as I do.
