45. Navigating Birthing Outside of The System in France
Description
Christina shares about her experience with living in France, a very anti-homebirth country, and wanting to birth outside of the medical system. Her dreams of wanting a physiological freebirth and believing she would NEVER go into the hospital system were very abruptly shattered when she found out about her baby's diagnosis. She then realized birth is not so black and white, we were able to discuss a bit about the dangers of freebirth culture, while also holding space for the women who feel a very deep and intuitive call to freebirth. Christina goes on to share her second birth experience which was a full circle moment of getting the birth she had always wanted from the very beginning.
*I want to be transparent in saying that I do not support or stand with the Free Birth Society. My values and approach to birth work differ greatly from theirs*
