Miranda's Story of 3 Natural Conceptions & 2 IVF, 4 Natural Hospital Births & 1 Free Birth

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Miranda.
Miranda is a mother of 5 and soon to be 6 from the US, now living in Berlin.
She has always believed in the power of pregnancy and birth and thinks the legacy of both is one of the great honors of being a woman.
Miranda first came to natural birth 12 years ago primarily out of curiosity but has evolved into a woman who owns this rite of passage as a lesson for life.
After her 4th baby she started the journey of becoming a midwife at the same university as me on the Gold Coast in Australia. She ended up not finishing as she decided to have her 5th baby and is now working as a doula in Berlin.
Miranda has had 4 natural hospital births, 3 in Australia and one 1 in Israel and her 5th was a free birth with just her husband.
3 of her babies were naturally conceived and 2 were IVF and her 6th baby currently in her womb was a natural conception. And, as Miranda shares in the episode, she believes SIBO - small intestine bacterial overgrowth which is a gut issue, was the cause of her unexplained infertility with her 4th and 5th needing the help of IVF.
I love how Miranda can showcase for the women going through IVF that you don’t have to continue with a highly medicalised pregnancy and birth which is usually the case.
IVF does not in itself make a high risk pregnancy.
