E10 Alicia Dixon | Six Births, Hospital Birth, Private Midwifery Care, Big Babies, Tandem Feeding, Water Birth, Fast Labour

In this episode I chat to Alicia about the births of her six children. Her first three were born in hospital and she went on to have her next three at home. She is currently pregnant with her 7th baby!

Alicia grows big babies, her most recent was over 11 pound! She was considered high risk for her hospital births and shares about how positive the transition to private midwifery care was for her.

Alicias last 5 babies were very close in age, at one stage she was actually breastfeeding three of them at once! We discuss the logistics of tandem feeding and the toll that so many pregnancies in a short period had on her body. 

I feel like I’ve come away from this interview with more questions than I went in with, so we have decided to open up an opportunity for listeners to ask questions over on instagram. I will pass those onto Alicia and share with you all so if you have any questions about her births or what life is like in a big family please head over to instagram and let us know!

 

I really hope you enjoy this episode!
