Sachiko is a client at my previous clinic who had a vaginal breech birth with us with her first baby. She shares with us how she made the decision to have a vaginal birth instead of a planned C-section. She shares her birth story with us. She also shares about her diagnosis with gestational diabetes, postpartum hemorrhage and difficulty with milk supply. Her birth happened 9 years ago. I help clarify some of these events.The recording shows that debriefing with your caregivers that were present at birth can provide alot of clarity around management and what happened. (and would be best sooner following the birth)Extra note: if you decide to take domeperidone to help increase your milk supply, it is imperative that when you stop the medication that you slowly decrease the medication. Please always inform yourself about risks and benefits, alternatives and your plan to get off any medication before taking them.
This recording does not offer any complete or accurate medical reference. This is a birth story. Please refer below for a better understanding of the research, guidelines, etc about VBB. For the best information, contact Betty-Anne Daviss R.M. to attend her presentations at conferences, etc.
