We have another lovely birth story episode for you this week, this time with Brooke! She tells us all about her completely unmedicated hospital birth and what it was like being pregnant & delivering her baby during the COVID-19 pandemic. We talk about why seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist was a great idea for her, how she prepared mentally, physically and spiritually for her birth, and how she advocated for herself and her birth wishes.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

-Why Brooke decided to become a doula after her first pregnancy experience

-How a pelvic floor physical therapist helped her handle abdominal separation and improved her pushing during labor

-How Brooke prepared herself mentally for her birth, including with visualization and meditation

-What it was like giving birth with only her husband and doula present with the rest of her family on the phone

-How Brooke has felt postpartum and during her modified laying in period

-Why holistically prepping for your pregnancy will help you have the best experience possible while being prepared for the unpredictability of pregnancy and birth
