In this episode Bree sits down with her husband Matt to recount her birth story with their second child Emmy.

After the positive but disempowering birth of her first child (See Episode 10), Bree knew that should they have more children she would want to have a homebirth. Long before she fell pregnant, Bree began assembling her team and planning her dream birth.

By 12 weeks she had locked in a private midwife, enrolled in a Hypnobirthing Australia Course and asked Kel to be her doula.

Throughout pregnancy Bree prepared for her birth by practicing hypnobirthing techniques and working through her fears and limiting beliefs in counselling.

Expecting an early birth, Bree had her birth space set up from 37 weeks however, Emmy decided to stay put until 41+3 days.

Despite the long wait, once labour commenced it was fast and furious lasting only 3 hours and resulting in a third degree tear (3B).

Tune into hear about Bree's positive and empowering home birth, her experience with a third degree tear and hospital transfer and everything in between.
