Emma’s Water Birth at Home
Emma had her 2nd baby at home after doing a private hypnobirthing course. She gave birth in a birth pool at home with her husband and the Wakefield home birth midwives. Her birth was such a magical experience and she shares her story here.
Positive Induction of Baby T
I had always been terrified of the idea of childbirth so I went to Franki to get some help with breathing techniques and calming methods.
For my own birth I had an induction and having heard nothing but horror stories about inductions I was extremely nervous going in.
Cora's Home Birth
This post comes with a little warning. It involves an obstetric emergency and details of what happened. If you don’t feel in a place to read this please don’t, but it IS a positive birth story and proof that things don’t always have to go perfectly to plan for a birth experience to be a positive one.
When I fell pregnant with her, our third baby, I knew straight away I wanted another home birth. I also knew straight away I'd have to fight for it.
After reading lots, I honestly believed that for me, the positives of being at home far outweighed the risk. The home birth team were happy to look after me and I trusted them.
