Listen Later

I just adored listening to Fiona’s three births. Her first homebirth was 10 years ago when we knew very little about the service and her most recent homebirth was in 2018.Her first babe arrived at home by the fire in the birth pool, her second on the landing as her little girl listened to her mama from her bed and her third beneath a tree with the sun on her skin in the arms of her husband.Fiona also shared her experience with early pregnancy loss during the pandemic. As a family they took the time to honour their baby that didn’t make it earthside and I really feel there is such an important message within her story. Very often families who experience early pregnancy loss don’t feel they can fully grieve or that such a loss even justifies grief in the eyes of certain people. Fiona’s family grieved, buried their baby under an Evergreen tree and wrote letters to their little one. So so important to allow yourself to feel how you need to feel!Thank you Fiona!This episode has been brought to you by @waterfulbabywipesWaterful plastic free baby wipes contain 99.9% purified water and are both fragrance free and alcohol free.
