SPECIAL EPISODE - What it was like to have a midwife team and an unplanned home birth The Cheerful Pharmacist

    • Medicine

In honour of the International Day of the Midwife, this episode is about my experience with having a midwife team and an unplanned home birth. Whether you choose to have an OB, a maternity doctor or a midwife is a very personal choice and I hope to share some insight on what it was like to have a midwife team as my maternity care provider. I received amazing support and care from them during and after my pregnancy and during the labour/birthing process. I also talk about my experience with hypnobirthing and why lying on your back is not an optimal birthing position.
