There is so much wisdom in Alice's story of pregnancy and birth. Have a listen to learn how she found the right support for her after she was continually met with weight-biased care.

You'll hear us discuss:

  • How Alice was "risked out" out midwife-led care
  • The weight bias Alice experienced during pregnancy
  • The reasons why Alice decided to have a home birth
  • Alice's journey through labor, including a transfer to the hospital
  • The reflections Alice has had since giving birth and what she would do differently
