Summary

A challenging pregnancy doesn’t necessarily mean a difficult birth. Jade had an awful nine months. She experienced nausea, severe pelvic pain, and adverse reactions to medication. Her hope was to have an unmedicated birth but as she struggled with her pregnancy she wondered if she would be able to get through her delivery without assistance.

Well, Jade not only had her baby without medication but the birth almost moved too quickly. She barely made it to the bed! There’s so much to learn from her story and you’re going to love the way she tells it.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

How Jade prepared both her mind and her body for birth
Why she chose to work with midwives for this birth
What medication actually cured her persistent nausea
…and how that medication wound up putting her in the hospital
What pica is and what causes it
How chiropractic care helped her with pain
