Australian Birth Stories

569 | Ruby - Midwife, low-lying placenta, Royal Women's homebirth program, positive induction experience


Listen Later

In this episode, Ruby - a registered nurse turned midwife and maternal child health nurse - shares her positive birth experience through the Royal Women's Hospital homebirth program in Melbourne. After initially planning a homebirth, Ruby's journey took several turns including a low-lying placenta scare that kept her in limbo for months, waters breaking early, and ultimately birthing her daughter Clementine in hospital with syntocinon induction. Ruby's story beautifully illustrates how birth can unfold differently than planned whilst still being incredibly positive and empowering.
