In Episode 29 I talk with Annelise from Future Foody. Annelise had planned for a Water Birth in a Birthing Centre, however Tallulah had other ideas - Annelise was induced at 40+5 due to reduced feotal movement and after a long labour Tallulah made her way into the world with the help of forceps, the last step before needing a Cesarean. 

Annelise then takes us through the birth of baby Coco, which was a scheduled induction just after 41 weeks however Annelise went into labour spontaneously and Coco was born 3 hours later. 

Annelise talks about her two very different experiences and how that impacted her mental health post birth, their breastfeeding journey and adjusting to life with two children.
