When a baby is in a breech (head up) position for labour and birth, women are faced with unique challenges of care provider incompetence and fear. Many clinicians don’t know how to or refuse to attend vaginal breech births. They cite increased risk and danger, but is this correct? Is it more dangerous to give birth to your breech baby vaginally or by caesarean section? Dr Rixa Freeze, president of Breech without Borders talks us through the research and we discuss the concept of never being able to eliminate risk, we just move it upstream. It’s up to women to decide which risks they are willing to accept, and it’s up to care providers to be skilled enough to be able to care for women according to the womans' preference.
This is the second breech episode for the Great birth Rebellion, the first was with Dr Andrew Bissits (episode 26).

In this episode, I share a quick personal and business life update with you! If you haven't heard already - we recently moved house, which has been a huge journey, especially with a toddler. But amidst the chaos, I've been working on something exciting - I am making my Preconception + First Trimester Online Course FREE to access for the rest of the month!
Click here to get your FREE access to Hannah's Preconception + First Trimester Online Course!
I know how exciting it is when you first see those two pink lines on the pregnancy test! But I also know how overwhelming the first trimester can be - not only just from the intense fatigue and nausea, but all the decisions that you need to make.Midwife or Ob? Public or private? What are doulas? How can a student midwife help you have a positive birth? What about your birth options - does your hospital offer baths or water? Or perhaps you know you want an epidural or caesarean - who is best to provide your care then?
So many questions right?! But don't worry - this course is here to arm you with the answers.
I designed this course because I want you to have all of the information on your different care providers, but also tools to use during the first trimester to help you to feel better, and to get through this often challenging time.
As a midwife working in public and private hospitals I have insider knowledge on our maternity care options in Australia - and I share all of this knowledge with you in this course!
Over five modules I take you through the common physical and emotional changes women experience in the first trimester and how you can support your body to feel better, important lifestyle considerations to implement in early pregnancy - plus we go in depth into how to choose the right care provider for you.

Ever wondered what Mel chose for her own births? And how it all went? Today she spills the tea about her own personal births through an interview with Anna from Sacred Birth International who interviewed Mel about her birth stories on the Natural Birth podcast… we can think of no better way to celebrate 1 MILLION DOWNLOADS for the Great Birth Rebellion podcast than to share a raw story about the choices Mel made for her own pregnancy and birth journeys - you’ll hear what I did for my tiny pre-term baby and also hear the backstory about how I laughed my second baby out.
Big thanks to Anna from @thenaturalbirthpodcast for interviewing me and facilitating this storytelling.Get more from the Great Birth Rebellion Podcast

In today’s episode Maude takes us through her two pregnancies and births. She moved interstate in her first pregnancy, registered with her local public hospital and had a planned caesarean because her baby was breech. She talks at length about her positive birth experience and the challenges of breastfeeding and being a stay at home mum. When she fell pregnant with her second baby, she accessed psychological support to assist with the transition from one to two babies and it really set her up for a smooth pregnancy. She knew she wanted a VBAC so she takes us through what she did to prepare and how the birth unfolded.

Sometimes we hear so much about birth - all kinds of births - that we can forget it is a normal, biological process. In today’s episode, Emily’s experience reiterates the ease of physiological birth - both at home with a single baby, and in hospital with twins. She is honest from the get-go when she admits that she wasn’t even sure she wanted to be a parent but we follow her journey of acceptance, the grief of misscarriage, the trust in her body and the preparation she did to lean into her intuition and birth all three babies with a profound sense of faith in her breath and body. If you’re currently in a period of doubt and fear (both very normal experiences in pregnancy), you’ll find so much comfort in this episode.

What makes The Birth Class so unique?
Instead of learning from one person with one perspective, we’ve gathered nine perinatal health specialists to take you through everything you need to know about labour and birth.
Evidence based information is key to thorough preparation. In The Birth Class you’ll learn from:
the process of labour and the hormones involved the benefits and risks of interventions your pain-relief options what happens in an emergency caesarean what to expect in the hours after birth active preparation for a VBAC
5 midwives and an obstetrician, a women’s health physiotherapist, yoga teacher and birth doula.
Listen in your own time and as many times as you like so you understand:Plus, you’ll be taught practical birth skills that will help you navigate the twists and turns of labour.
The Birth Class is accessible birth education that’s both conversational and wise. Best of all, it will start a conversation with you and your support person so you can both feel prepared and confident to make informed choices; the foundation of a positive birth experience.
