Summary

Have you been thinking about going the unmedicated route during your labor and delivery?

Then this episode is for you, mama-to-be. Even if you’re just pondering it.

A lot of women use the term “natural birth” when talking about foregoing medications, but to be honest, all births are natural. So you’ll hear me use the phrase “unmedicated birth” instead.

But before you really make your decision, there are a few things for you to consider…

For instance, why do you want an unmedicated birth? Your motivation for making that choice matters.

Are you prepared? Preparation is going to be incredibly important if you’re wanting an unmedicated birth.

These are a just a couple of the things I cover for you in this episode. You don’t want to miss any of the rest of the points I cover if you’re thinking about having an unmedicated birth.

So dive on into this episode and find out the 9 things you need to know if you want an unmedicated birth in the hospital.

If you still have questions after listening in to this episode, I would love for you to check out my website. There are so many resources for you there! You can access that by clicking here.
