In this episode, Donna from Bristol shares her 44 week home birth story! (Yes, yes we know it's not a freebirth, but she said next time it will be! Plus, 44 weeks - incredible!) Though the start of her pregnancy was normal and boring, Donna soon had a fight on her hands as her midwives feared the possibility of a breech baby and took issue with Donna's declining of tests and measurements. Donna was immensely informed and prepared, whipping out stats and studies during her antenatal appointments and even during her labour! During the birth Donna needed to bat away disruptions, pushes for interventions and even a transfer to hospital when she didn't want it, feeling she might give birth in the ambulance! We hear how Donna was able to stay strong and focused as she went more and more "overdue", and how she engaged with midwives along the way.
