In this episode, Rachael discusses her mindset change from no doubt about it- a hospital birth, to really wanting and planning for a home birth. She tells us about her positive home birth story and her love for evidence-based information as a scientist herself. We talk about placenta encapsulation, the exhaustion that comes with having a long birth and having a newborn, and the importance of having a community of people around you to be able to thrive during the postpartum stage.
