003 - Monika | morning sickness, hospital birth, induction, diamorphine, epidural, episiotomy, forceps, nuchal cord

In today's episode I'm chatting to Monika as she shares the story of Sunny's birth. Monika struggled with awful nausea and vomiting for the entirety of her pregnancy. As the sickness worsened around her due date she opted to be induced and after labouring through the night things ended with an episiotomy and a forceps-assisted birth as her baby's heart rate was dipping due to a nuchal cord. Monika went on to breastfeed her baby and continues to do so 19 months later.
