how-baby-expereinces-birth_mini

What does birth feel like to your baby? What does he or she do during childbirth? Baby isn't passive – he/she is actively working with you!

In this episode I cover:

  • Something exciting coming soon!
  • What your baby does during birth (hint, baby doesn't just sit around!)
  • Why working with your baby is so important
  • What baby experiences as his/her circulation changes over
  • Why delayed cord clamping is natural and best for baby
  • How baby's senses react to birth
  • What's normal with the newborn transition
