"Hypnobirth, MGP and Birth Experience"

My husband and I fell pregnant with our second bundle of joy last year, our previous birth was through another hospital in Bunbury and although we could not fault anything regarding our birth or care given I had in my heart that I wanted to have a water birth. 

We decided to go through the MGP program and attempt a home birth, unfortunately, due to having GD (Gestational Diabetes) and needing insulin I was informed I needed to be induced and give birth at the hospital. We had been attending Kasey’s positive birth program at the time we found out about the GD and I think if we had not been attending this class it could have totally derailed me. However with the amazing support of this class, my beautiful midwife Christina and student midwife Jilly I ended up being able to push my induction date to 39 weeks, only needing ARM and being able to have my beautiful water birth. 

We had a few complications with bub after birth and they were whisked away to the nursery where they stayed for a few days, the beautiful student doctors and outstanding nurses that looked after our baby and me, I can ot thank enough. 

We are so lucky to live where we do and have access to the positive birth program and MGP.
