564 | Celeste - Three very different births, Multiple sclerosis, induction, precipitous labour, mastitis

Listen to this episode from Australian Birth Stories on Spotify. Celeste's three births showcase dramatically different experiences within the same hospital system. Her first birth involved an induction that led to forceps delivery and NICU admission, her second was a precipitous labour where she dilated from 3cm to fully dilated in just 30 minutes, and her third was a planned induction that resulted in her dream water birth. Throughout all three experiences, managing her multiple sclerosis added an extra layer of complexity to her care. Are you preparing for birth and looking for a natural way to manage labour pain?
