In this episode I’m joined by Leanne, who shares a positive induction story from England. This is Leanne’s third birth. This is a really interesting story, which to Leanne is positive, partly because she felt like a badass as she say. But we also discuss important topics such as writing a complaint when you don’t feel you’re treated with respect. And how hypnotherapy can help you process a birth. As always there’s lots to...
Hi! .. just here to share my positive induction experience. My pregnancy was great, I think I threw up once the whole pregnancy I was able to eat whatever I wanted. Roll to the 3rd trimester and my legs ankles and feet became VERY itchy. I was told I have OC which is Obstetric cholestasis and I would be induced at no later than 38 weeks. I was always measuring small they did say...
I found out I was pregnant on the 1st January 2018 and I went into a tail spin, this was right on the back of a miscarriage (my third) in late October 2017 and I was petrified. I had tests done at the time and I had an appointment with the miscarriage specialist from Dr Grey’s Hospital in Elgin on the 10th January. When we went in I was advised I had tested positive...
Long story… I want to start by thanking this group of Mama’s for all your positive induction stories, without this group I honestly don’t think I would have had such an empowering and positive induction experience! We found out we were pregnant just before the first lockdown in March after returning from travelling the world for 6 months prior and we were so excited! I suffered extreme morning sickness for the first 13 weeks...
My first birth was better than I could have expected, after some initial nervousness I took a hypnobirthing course and religiously listened to my affirmations and relaxation tracks. I believe this all helped me to have the quick, relatively painless birth I was lucky enough to experience. Nearly two years later and with my second pregnancy, suspected growth restriction was picked up at 34 weeks and quickly the talk turned to inductions at 37...
My first birth was spontaneous and our daughter was born at 42 wks plus one day. Birth had started in the early hours before the day we were due to be induced for post-dates however it was a long birth and she arrived at 42 wks exactly it was a pretty traumatic birth experience and I was keen to avoid that second time. 4 years later and we didn’t share our due date, I...
My first birth was long and traumatic with lots of unplanned intervention and ended with an epidural and forceps delivery due to shoulder dystocia (where the baby’s head is born but the shoulder gets stuck) and my baby was very big (9lb 8oz). I was under consultant care second time around as baby was also presenting as big on growth scans and risk of shoulder dystocia is higher with bigger babies. I was advised...
