Episode 40 - Brittany - positive hospital birth
Welcome back to another episode of The Mama Village!
Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to our first international guest, Brittany, all the way from Southern California.
In today’s episode, Brittany shares her empowering journey
through pregnancy and her beautiful hospital birth story.
After feeling pressured by her OBGYN about her rapid weight gain that didn’t reflect her overall health, she made the brave decision to switch care providers and hire a private midwife and a doula. Brittany's experience highlights the importance of finding supportive care that truly understands and respects your body and your journey.
Brittany will also take us through a touching moment in her
postpartum journey—an intuitive ceremony in her first shower after giving birth, where she expressed gratitude to her incredible body for carrying her baby, giving birth and healing postpartum.
Brittany also opens up about the challenges she faced in the
postpartum period, and how she sought help through a postpartum doula, counselling, and lactation support. This episode is a heartfelt reminder of the strength we all possess, the importance of community, and the journey of motherhood. So, let’s dive into Brittany’s inspiring story!
