Moony Birth Stories

Liz- One Hospital Labour with Pitocin and Epidural; Emergency Cesarean Section

Teagan McMeekin Season 4 Episode 2

Liz, a doula and pharmacist from Saskatoon, SK joins me on this episode of Moony Birth Stories to share the pregnancy and birth story of her daughter Marjorie.  Liz and her partner, Pete, were able to conceive with no complications after a few months of trying and while she'd hoped for a home birth, Liz explains the factors that ended up leading her in a different direction.  She opens up about her struggles with a labour experience that felt out of her control and not supported by her medical team in the ways she should've been.  She talks about her path to processing and healing after birth trauma as well as her struggles with postpartum anxiety.
