I loved the way you articulated your changing needs and how responsive your team was to what you wanted. You are a strong and centred woman – such a brilliant story showing what we humans are capable of when we understand what’s happening for us.

I really love this comment that you made about your husband not being sure about what was happening “He looked at the midwives to see their reaction to this and they were both smiling from ear to ear, so he figured it was okay” – that kinda sums it all up about how important the environment is for birth and how the midwives response and reaction to events ‘sets the tone’ for birthing.

thank you so much for sharing your story. Your words and your experiences will provide inspiration, reassurance and information for so many other women and their partners.

Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful boy Alexander.
