Roz explains how uterus didelphys and polycystic ovaries contributed to a long and difficult journey to finally becoming pregnant, and then came a constant stream of discouragement and doubt in her ability to birth from outside voices.

And yet how a deep self trust carried her through to birth her baby on the MLU with no medical intervention or midwifery presence, despite additional hurdles of iron level and glucose levels thrown in her path. She then talks us through her symptomatic post-partum haemorrhage that she managed calmly, slowly, and in full control.
