S2 Ep8: Nakita's birth story!

birthwell Season 2 Episode 8

In this conversation, Laura and Nadia are so excited to bring you their very first birth story! They are welcoming Nikita from our birthwell community to share her experiences with labor, birth, pregnancy and postpartum.  She discusses her positive pregnancy experience, the concept of a 'birth map' instead of a rigid birth plan, and the supportive roles of her doula and midwife during labor. Nikita highlights how staying active and maintaining a positive outlook contributed to her calm and empowering birth experience. She discusses the challenges and surprises of postpartum recovery, her decision not to breastfeed, and offers valuable advice for new mothers. Nakita highlights the importance of mental preparation for labor and the need for support during the birthing process, while also addressing societal pressures and expectations surrounding motherhood.
