Alex's hospital birth to Oakley
The Positive Births NZ podcast - A podcast by Helen Bartrom

Categories:
Midwife Alex had a huge amount of experience of supporting couples on their hypnobirthing journey. She felt she was inspired by what she’d seen with her couples experiencing the course, so as soon as she was pregnant she was like “ok it’s my turn”. Alex generously shares her fertility journey with IVF, her scares in early pregnancy. Plus other topics that get featured in this episode are, pregnancy bleeds, vomiting phobia, group strep B, baby’s position, a scar from a surgery, epidural, ventouse delivery. So what makes a positive birth? Alex feels that a big part of it was being able to make her own choices and you’ll hear her tell of the choices she made to achieve her end goal – which was to have that amazing moment when baby was born. And yes she got it!
