061 - Jessi | 2 births, induction, uterine hyperstimulation, covid, epidural, ventouse, homebirth, waterbirth

Update: 2025-07-23

Description

In today’s episode we’re hearing about Jessi’s two vastly different births. Her first - an induction that sent her into uterine hyperstimulation and was heavily influenced by covid restrictions. Her second - an empowering waterbirth in her living room with continuity of care from an amazing homebirth team.

She shares how her first birth influenced the choices she made around her second, what a physiological labour was like in comparison to an induced one and how her postpartum healing differed after the two.
