The Virtual Midwife

2: Tristan and Chanelle


Listen Later

Tristan put significant effort into being an awesome "daddy doula" and says that his biggest gift was knowing how to be fully present for Chanelle through her labor. He is in awe of the power of birth and was transformed by the exchange of energy during the pushing phase.

Chanelle shares how Pethidine gave her a chance to get some rest and helped her through the most intense part of her labor. Being aware of the power of suggestion gave her a deep insight into other peoples beliefs about birth without impacting her own belief system and enabled her to confidently decline the offer of an epidural.

Her labor progressed so fast that there was no time for her to be moved to the delivery room and we talk about how this was a blessing in disguise. 

If you would like to share your birth story, I would love to hear it. Stories connect us through shared experience and now more then ever we need reminding of our shared connection. Please book a spot here
