Birth With Power

Ep 261: Nicole’s Birth Story - The Line Between Pain and Suffering

58 min • 4 juni 2024

Sometimes a “beautiful” birth doesn’t mean getting what you wanted - it means making the right decisions for yourself along the way. After being stuck at 5 cm for TWELVE HOURS, Nicole decided that it was time to change course. I’ll give away that she did have a vaginal birth, but it was nothing like she planned or anticipated.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

Why Nicole eventually agreed to a low dose of pitocin
What happened when the pitocin was increased
Whether or not her water broke
How her partner supported the decision to get an epidural
What made her so happy with the anesthesiologist
How quickly she progressed after the epidural
Why doctors were concerned about her baby’s heart rate
How a lactation consultant helped with breastfeeding issues
