Natural Birth Co. Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Emmy is such a special NBC mama with a MASSIVE story to tell of her journey through her pregnancy and birth with NBC. Her first babe was what she describes as a traumatic birth experience, ending in an emergency C-section. This birth included ALOT of struggles, unplanned adaptation and shock, leading to Emmy’s experience of postnatal depression. 

Accidently only 6 months after she became pregnant with her second baby, where Emmy experienced the most empowering, intuitive led, healing home birth VBAC experience you could ever imagine (not even being dramatic. 

Due to the sheer detail and depth of Emmy’s experience, we recorded the first podcast then realised (after 3 hours) we had left out so bloody much of her experience! So there is a part 2 following soon with the extra details hehe.

In today’s podcast we discuss:

• The act of being adaptable towards birth and your plan, letting go of rigid expectations
• Traumatic birth, and how to heal from it
• The ultimate surrender to your ‘plan’
• Powerful VBAC’s
• Being intune to your intuition during birth
• Having a great bright team
• Having your dream birth when in full surrender

This podcast is for you if:

• You have experienced a traumatic birth before, and desire some healing, relation of even tips that may help you
• You are going for a VBAC
• You want to build your empowerment towards your decision making during birth
• You want to build your connection to your intuition for decision making during pregnancy and birth.

Today, we're catching up with Gracie in our Journey of Pregnancy series (now at the 38-week mark), and we're diving deep into the physical changes that happen in the body before birth. From cervical developments to those magical baby movements, and that's not all…

Gracie opens up about something many expecting mothers might relate to: the sudden appearance of the "motherhood wound" as she gears up to transition into motherhood herself. 

Plus, we'll take you along for the ride as we navigate:

• CTG's and a slightly nerve-wracking hospital scare
• Surrendering to the uncertainty and unknown of spontaneous labour for first time mamas
• Sex in later pregnancy
• The difference between baby showers and mothers blessings

This podcast is for you if:

• You’re a first time mama and desire some inspiration, guidance, or relation to another pregnancy.
• You are preconception, wanting to have a baby at some stage in future, and have no idea what to actually do when that happens. 
• You are early in your pregnancy and desire some guidance on the right steps to make for your pregnancy journey with an interest towards natural birth.

Welcome to the Natural Birth Code Podcast! So excited to have you here, ready to dive into some real talk about birth experiences. Today, I am absolutely stoked to introduce you to Jacque. Trust me, you're gonna adore her. She's an NBC mama who's been through the whole shebang – yoga, birth workshops, you name it. And now, seven months post-birth, she's here to share her journey.

Get ready, because Jacque's story is a game-changer. We're talking about her experience with an epidural, and let me tell you, it's not your typical tale. See, we often have these preconceived notions about what's "good" or "bad" when it comes to birth preferences. But Jacque's here to flip that script. She embraced the unexpected, and her positive attitude toward her epidural is seriously inspiring.

You know, it's all about facing those fears head-on. We've all been there, sweating bullets over what might go wrong. But when you shine a light on those worries and give 'em a name, they lose their power. Jacque did just that, and her journey shows us that sometimes, the scariest thing on paper turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

So, get ready for some major inspiration – this is one podcast episode you won't wanna miss!

In this podcast we discuss:

• Conception with a sperm donor
• The importance of a support network
• Pregnancy preparation for birth
• How to have a positive birth experience where you are in control WITH an epidural
• Single parenting
• The importance of trusting in your intuition, and having confidence during your labour and birth experience

This podcast is for:

• The woman who can’t handle the thought of their birth going not to plan
• The woman wildly scared of getting the epidural
• The single mamas
• Mama who has difficulty in trusting and listening to their intuition- where does it even come from?
• Mamas who feel that because they haven’t birthed before they have no idea what to expect
• The Mamas who love a good birth story
