What does it look like to follow your instinct when it comes to birth?
Today we’re chatting with Lindsay Robinson about the details of her second and third home births. Lindsay joined us back in 2018 to share her first home birth story.
Now we’re talking about her desire to have a freebirth for her second, but she really loved her midwives and was still open to having them there for the birth. Spoiler alert: the midwife arrived after the birth!
And then details from her third birth, where her midwife was present.
There are a lot of great details and themes throughout this conversation. To name just a few:
- Insomnia and depression during pregnancy
- Birth pool setup (aka shenanigans)
- Fetal ejection reflex
- Postpartum bleeding
- Ultrasound visits
- Prodromal labor
- Laboring on the toilet
- Meconium in waters when they break
- Nuchal cord
