Benefits of Active Birth

Being active in labour and upright birthing positions are one of my favourite topics to talk about - and with good reason! There are so many benefits shown in the research for labouring in an upright position - yet why do most women still end up birthing in the bed? I discuss all this and more in today's episode!
