This episode, we are delighted to interview Elizabeth Bachner, who is a midwife at Gracefull Birthing in Silverlake, California!

We discuss the importance of working with an expert for a low risk vs high risk pregnancy and the importance of working with a midwife/OB/GYN who will support the expecting mother.

We also discuss the importance of the emotional impact that the pregnancy, labor and birth can have on the mother and as a result the effects on the newborn baby.

Elizabeth gives tips on how to grow a healthy emotional connection with the baby and how "negative" emotions such as grief can still be processed in a healthy way.
