Maternal assisted caesarean birth, solo mama by choice [Spilling the Milk Birth Story with Claire]. Re-run 2020
It’s my pleasure to share this beautiful positive birth story with you again today.
This is a re-run from episode 18, where I chat with Claire who had a 5 week old bubba. Claire opens up about being a single mamma by choice and the arduous yet amazing story of how she finally became pregnant after numerous years of trying.
Claire and I discuss maternal assisted cesarean deliveries, being a single mum, recovering from a c-section and her experience leaking amniotic fluid all over her nursery, the car and hospital entrance!
Claire’s beautiful experience throughout pregnancy, childbirth and life with a newborn baby will encourage any listeners out there looking for some positivity at the moment.

42 hour labour, emergency caesarean birth, 4th trimester planning [Spilling the Milk with Jenna Cawthray]
In this birth story I chat with Jenna Cawthray who is a mother to a 12 week old son, Robbie.
Jenna describes her 42 hour labour which ended in an emergency caesarean. And despite the fact that her birth didn't go according to plan, and did in fact take quite some time to process for her, Jenna has now come out the other side and is loving motherhood.
Jenna also gives some great tips that helped with her postpartum stage and 4th trimester.
