Ep199: Haley’s Birth Story - An Extremely Prepared Mom with an Extremely Fast Labor

I am particularly delighted with Haley’s birth story! She was just about as prepared as you can be. Not only did she do childbirth education (including taking my birth prep course!) but she prepared physically. Before she and her husband even started trying she was taking vitamins, minding her physical fitness, and getting tests at the doctor.In this episode we literally laugh and cry. Her birth was relatively straight-forward. What makes this story so special is the joy you can hear in Haley’s voice when she talks about her birth experience and meeting her baby. Tune in for an interview that will remind you what makes birth beautiful.In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:-Why I call Haley “textbook” prepared-How knowledge made her feel empowered in her decisions-How she and her provider came to a compromise over induction-How she was able to instinctively tell when labor was starting-What her husband did to support her every step of the way-What her nurse did to advocate for Haley’s needs-Why her sister encouraged her to go to the ER four days after giving birth-How pelvic floor therapy helped her postpartum--Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode199Check out The Birth Preparation CourseRegister for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right Way Learn more about donating your cord blood and get up to $100 Amazon gift card! --> thecordbloodgroup.com/drnicoleAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
