In today's episode we interviewed Kristyn, who is a mum of two and the president of Homebirth Australia.
Kristyn planned to birth her first baby at home with her private midwife. When Kristyn was 36+6 weeks pregnant she went to hospital with pain on her left side. After a long and painful wait, Kristyn's appendix ruptured resulting in an emergency caesarean under general anaesthesia. Kristyn experienced breastfeeding trauma due to the inadequate care she received from staff within the hospital as she wanted to breastfeed whilst her baby was in the NICU.
Kristyn recounts her journey through the heartbreak of an ectopic pregnancy during her second conception. After a year of trying, Kristyn conceived again and gave birth to her second baby (HBAC) in the comfort of her own home.
