In this episode we hear from our very own Elysia, as she and her husband Andrew give us a snapshot of their first three birth experiences — the first two in integrated birth centres in the UK, the third in a Melbourne public hospital, before delving into what led them to choose homebirth for their most recent birth of baby number 4, at home via a publicly funded homebirth program. We discuss the cultural and social influences on your choices around how and where to birth, as well as the journey towards choosing homebirth. We touch on Elysia's experience of a third degree tear in her first birth (and the improved perineal outcomes with each subsequent birth), and when it came to homebirth — the common partner questions, the role of a student midwife, and their reflections on just how different that model of care, and experience of being in your own home was, for both Elysia and Andrew.
