S3 EP10: BIRTH MYTHS - "All that matters is a healthy baby"

Welcome to The Doula's Guide To... Podcast, season 3 episode 10. Today I wanted to chat to you all about the phrase "all that matters is a healthy baby" and why I fundamentally disagree. We talk about sensitive topics such as birth trauma, postpartum mental wellbeing, unhealthy and sick babies, unnecessary interventions etc. If this may be too tough a listen right now then you can always skip and come back another day ❤*Please note this podcast is not medical advice (also please note there is a lot of swearing in this episode! It is a very frustrating topic and I seemingly didn't hold back)Links mentioned in this episode:Birth Trauma Inquiry Report - click hereClick here to find out more about my digital hypnobirthing courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thedungareedoula.co.uk/onlinecourse⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Use code 'PODCAST' for 20% off my digital courses!Sign up for myFREE hypnobirthing masterclasses:⁠⁠ click here⁠⁠Join my mailing list:⁠⁠substack.com/@thedungareedoula⁠⁠Love the podcast? support me by leaving a tip via buy me a ko-fi:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ko-fi.com/thedungareedoula⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Power Hour:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠calendly.com/thedungareedoula/power-hour?month=2024-02⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you enjoyed the episode please give it a like, review and click follow so you never miss out!New episodes are out every Friday at 7am so stick around.Connect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thedungareedoula.co.uk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/thedungareedoula⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
