The Birthful Podcast: Summer Birth Stories 2016 #6
We continue on our “Birth Stories” for the summer series! This week, Natasha Grey shares her lovely homebirth story, noting how an ultimatum from her midwife had her running for the stairs, and right into transition. Check it out!
Some of what we talked about:
- Exploring the meaning of pain
