Hannah M: Fast Labor Turns into Surprise Home Birth
Hannah joins us to share the story of her second birth which was wildly different from her first. Hannah had a fairly easy pregnancy again except that she was GBS positive with a suspected penicillin allergy. After advocating for herself, she finally found an allergist to help her. She was all set for another birth at the Birth Center when she went into labor early. She thought it was prodromal labor which she had with her first. She progressed very quickly, too quickly and wasn’t able to leave the house in time. Surrounded by her in-laws, dogs, firefighters and paramedics, Hannah delivered her own baby in her hallway. She had a difficult postpartum term due to feeding issues. Tune in to listen to the entire roller coaster birth story.
