In this episode, we talk to two VERY special guests, our husbands, Dave and Dhi!
We wanted to explore freebirth from the perspective of the partners, and how ours felt around the idea of freebirth. This is more of a personal share episode, as we all talk about how the births and preparations felt for us.

We asked our community to send in some questions that we could put to our husbands, and this juicy episode doesn't disappoint!

We get to some nitty gritty...

• How did you feel the first time freebirth came as an option?


• Were you worried?


• Different routes through birth preparation; we don't all prepare in the same way!


• Practical support during labour and top tips.


• Expectations vs reality.


• Communication in your relationship.


• What's the most uncomfortable conversation you've ever had?


• Death, blame, responsibility and control- Acceptance of your partner's choices.


• How even home birth can feel like a taboo topic.


• Did you feel like you were a replacement for a midwife?

And much more!

Thank you to our lovely husbands for sharing your thoughts.
