Homebirth after a positive hospital birth, alpha-thalassemia, long placenta birth & impact of COVID restrictions || Joey's birth of Avery at home (Australian Capital Territory)

Birthing at Home: A Podcast

Hello! I would love to hear what your fave part of the ep was. Send me a msg by clicking here :)

This is episode 53, and today we hear from Joey in Canberra. Joey is a physio and mum to two boys, Bellamy who she very almost had a homebirth with and Avery, who she did birth at home.
Joey shares with us her journey with Bellamy and we reflect on why she chose homebirth, even having had what she describes as a positive hospital birth. We also chat about the impact of COVID on pregnancy, labour and her post partum, and the many things she learnt even as a physio, when researching physiological birth.
