S7 Ep 2 - High BMI and Water Birth with Laura from Plus Size Pregnancy

This week's episode is all about high BMI pregnancies and water birth with the very fantastic Laura from high BMI pregnancy. It's a really common challenge for people classed as high risk due to their BMI, to be denied access to a birth center or midwifery led unit, and refused access to a birthing pool. We discuss the reasons you may be given and dispel the myths and fatphobia, and talk about how to get the water birth you deserve! If you'd like to find out more about Laura and her courses go to @plussizepregnancy. The Better Birth podcast is hosted by hypnobirthing and antenatal teacher Erin Fung.
