In this episode, Rosie shares the birth story of her first baby. Rosie planned a home birth and was supported by a continuity of care midwife whom she saw for every appointment. After a long labour at home, Rosie decided to transfer to hospital due to exhaustion - but realised when she arrived at hospital her baby was imminent!Two weeks after her baby was born, COVID hit and Rosie's maternity leave experience was spent in isolation, which was tough mentally but allowed for a wonderful breastfeeding relationship to be established. Rosie also experienced mastitis, but chose not to go in to hospital as, due to COVID, she would have been separated from her 10-day old baby. I hope you enjoy Rosie's story!Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
