My Positive Birth

Lucy's story

Episode notes

Welcome to episode 6 of the My Positive Birth podcast!

This is a very special episode for me because I am speaking to Lucy Hill... earlier this year I started looking for birth story podcasts to listen and learn from myself, and I came across Lucy's - the "Real Birth Podcast". I have listened to every story & am a genuine fan. And this was my inspiration to start my own podcast as there is a real shortage of UK birth stories out there. So it has been amazing to connect with Lucy. Even if technical issues on my side meant it was quite a battle to get this one in the can! 

Lucy had so much wisdom to share, from conception, into the prep she did for her birth, a quite brilliant movie like start to her labour, and then her journey from planned home water birth to a Caesarean section when the baby was found to be breech.

Lucy's reflections on her birth are magical, particularly the value she places in her labour at home, her power, her strength, her instincts. I think the way she describes it all might literally stop you in your tracks, and stories like hers are EXACTLY why I started this podcast.

Buzzing for this one! Thank you Lucy - and do check out her podcast @https://www.instagram.com/realbirthpodcast/
