Episode notes

How can we truly plan for something as big and unknowable as birth? What are we forgetting to prepare for - or not being told? India talks to obstetrician and gynecologist Dr Ranee Thakar about tearing during birth and to Siobhan Miller, founder of the Positive Birth Company, about hypnobirthing.
