Episode 193 - What to do if your labour is FAST

Épisode 193

dimanche 8 mars 2026Durée 01:04:18

Precipitous labour and birth can be a real surprise if you were mentally preparing for a longer labour. Around 15% of women will have a labour that is less than 3 hours and these quick ones require a little bit of understanding and preparation to help you not become overwhelmed by it. There is often no time for pain management, you are on the ride! In this episode, Mel gives some strategies to help you plan and manage a fast labour and birth and also what to do if your baby comes before you get to hospital or before your midwife arrives. 

This episode comes with 2 helpful check lists with quick tips for you and your support people:

  1. Preparing for a fast labour AND
  2. Born Before arrival

These are in the podcast resource folder. Get access to them here

Episode 192 - Mel's mastitis protocol

Épisode 192

dimanche 1 mars 2026Durée 50:22

I came up with this Mastitis protocol early in my career and it’s just always worked. For this reason I have had no inclination to update or change it, because it has proved it to be effective. In this episode I explain my protocol and provide a detailed list of what to do if you think you might have mastitis. My protocol has elements within it that are not aligned with some of the current guidelines and I explain where it diverges and why I persist in using it despite the change in the guidelines

Episode 86 - Internal release work with Fiona Hallinan

Épisode 78

mercredi 15 mai 2024Durée 01:01:56

Fiona Hallinan has over 30 years of experience working with women as a midwife, nurse and pelvic space therapist. Internal release work involves physically interacting with the pelvic space by accessing it through the vagina. Fiona talks about how her work now as an internal release work therapist evolved and developed and we tap into this learnt skill which is moving from oral tradition into mainstream maternity care. Fiona believes that every woman would benefit from internal release work and the more people have this skill the better.
