Description
Welcome to The Doula's Guide To... preparing for your birth! With me Meg, AKA The Dungaree Doula. I'm a doula, hypnobirthing teacher, and Hull lass - trust me, you'll get used to the accent. I'm a self confessed birth and parenting nerd, here to support you throughout pregnancy, birth and way beyond.
In this podcast we'll delve deep into the nitty gritty topics you're desperate to know more about, I'll answer your burning questions and give you the unbiased facts on all things pregnancy, birth and parenting.
Along the way we'll have guest speakers, interviews and a few positive birth stories to really boost your oxytocin too (more on that in the hormones episode!).
New episodes drop every Friday at 7am, enjoy!
