Hello mamas and welcome back to the Pregnancy with Physio Laura podcast. 

Today we are kicking off with the fifth episode in our Ask the Midwife series, chatting all about C-section birth preferences. This is a snappy and short episode, but I felt it deserved it’s own episode as it is quite specific to C-section mamas. Beth talks us through her role as a midwife in a surgical birth and the preferences women should consider to make their birth a beautiful experience. 

This is episode 5 of a 6 part Ask the Midwife series with the amazing Beth Ryan, our resident midwife, childbirth educator and soon to be mama!

You can find out more about Beth and check out her amazing instagram account by visiting @birthwithbeth. 

If you missed it make sure you go back and listen to the first 4 episodes in this series where we chat about the importance of stimulating the labour hormone oxytocin and labouring at home for as long as possible, how to create a beautiful birth environment in the hospital, navigating conversations, language and interventions with your birth team and the ultimate in postpartum support planning. 

Now let’s get into episode 5 of our 6 part Ask the midwife series. I hope you love this chat with Beth around C-section birth preferences. Enjoy!
