Homebirth Stories Australia

Today, we sit down with Lizzie to discuss her three home births. Throughout all three pregnancies and births, Lizzie chose to work with the same private midwifery team, highlighting the importance of continuity of care with trusted known midwives.
Lizzie shares with us her unique experience of having pregnancies that extended past her due date, with each subsequent pregnancy being shorter in gestation. Despite some challenges, such as reduced fetal movements towards the end of her pregnancies, Lizzie sought reassurance from the hospital through CTG monitoring.
We delve into topics such as after birth pains, breastfeeding, placental encapsulation, and Lizzie's personal experience with postpartum rage. Overall, Lizzie's story sheds light on the benefits of personalised care and support during the birthing process.
