S01E05 Delia: Four Home Births. Trust, Transforming Fear and Birthing on Her Own Terms.
Delia's resources are below this description.
Delia shares her four powerful home birth stories that began when she was a young midwife trainee who discovered her pregnancy at 26 weeks. From catching each baby in her own hands to navigating birth as a young student, her stories exemplify trusting intuition and creating empowered experiences.
• Serendipitously discovering Ina May Gaskin's "Spiritual Midwifery" as a midwifery student and how that awakened her trust in physiological birth
• Working in the hospital during pregnancy as a trainee midwife and witnessing interventions that reinforced her desire for homebirth
• Experiencing pain-free birth by focusing on breath, trust and staying in the flow during labor and how this experience is possible for everyone
• Facing and moving through fear before and during birth
• Catching all her babies in her own hands
• Breastfeeding successfully despite being told by her family that she wouldn't be able to nurse
• Using instinctive knowledge during her second birth when she asked for a passionate kiss to relax her body
• Trusting her intuition
• Breaking away from her family's birth culture where all births were cesareans and breastfeeding wasn't practiced
