E199. Positive Inductions: Empowering Birth Stories
Positive Inductions: Empowering Birth Stories With Hayley and Danielle Induction of labour often lands in the ‘No thank you’ pile in birth plans and preferences and, as a Midwife, I am keen to challenge this idea because the truth is that with the right support, information and guidance an induction can be a very positive tool to an empowering birth experience. This week I am joined by two incredible new mummy’s so expect baby appearances and noises on today’s episode! Hayley and Danielle, both members of my exclusive YPJ- Your Pregnancy and Postpartum Journey Programme and Hayley is also actually our Community Manager but other than having just become first time mums these two incredible women have something else in common- they both had a positive induction of labour birth and are, like me, keen to dispel the myths and scare mongering that exists out there. So grab a cuppa and let’s get down to it.
