MamasteFit Birth Story 36: Lauren's Two Births: Unmedicated Induction and Successful ECV & Induction

Join us for the birth story of Lauren, who shares her experiences between her two births. Her first birth was unmedicated induction at 37 weeks due to high blood pressure, which led to pushing for four hours. For her second birth, despite the baby being in unstable lie (flipping positions from breech to head down frequently), a successful ECV leads to another induction where she pushed for only 12 minutes! Lauren provides valuable insights into how she prepared physically and mentally for her second birth. Gina and Roxanne, provide professional advice on dealing with an unstable lie. They also discuss the importance of having options in case of a breech birth, and being able to advocate for oneself in a hospital setting.
