013 - Louise | identical twins, physiological birth, premature babies, 2nd degree tear, NICU, respiratory distress syndrome
Description
In today's episode I'm speaking to Louise as she shares her amazing physiological twin birth story. From the moment the hospital confirmed she was pregnant with identical twins Louise found herself under pressure to have a c-section. She spent her pregnancy researching, advocating for herself and visualising her pain-free birth. When her waters broke prematurely her hospital were unable to accept her due to the NICU being full so she was transferred in labour to an unfamiliar hospital 45 minutes from her home. Despite all the last minute changes she managed to stay calm and birth her babies and her very large placenta vaginally without any medication or intervention. Her boys were both admitted to the NICU where they spent 10 days being treated for respiratory distress syndrome which Louise admits was a traumatic start to motherhood; luckily Felix and Leo both went on to make a full recovery.
