Laurie Freebirths With Group B Strep Then Waits 17 Hours For Her Placenta
Description
Laurie shares the story of her second pregnancy, in which she comes to realise that the hospital hadn’t saved her and her baby in her first birth, as she had always believed, and describes the anger she then felt at having experienced such an unnecessary cascade of intervention.
She then talks about the life changing inspiration gathered from her community of powerful women, which fuelled her journey to making the decision to freebirth, despite insistence from doctors that her group b strep status was risking her babies life. She describes her beautiful, blissful home birth, and the subsequent challenge of not birthing the placenta until 17 hours later.
