Positive COVID-19 Birth Reflections

Om avsnittet

Three women reflect on their COVID-19 VBAC birth experiences in Australian hospitals. Michal is a Melbourne based midwife and mother of three who shares her experience in Episode 16. Jessica is a mother of two based in Torquay whose birth is shared in Episode 19. Erin is a Perth mother of two who recently shared her story in episode 36 after she found herself labouring during a transition phase post 3 day lockdown in WA. We hope you can learn from their advice and that it helps you not to feel discouraged on your VBAC journey in these times.
