31 | Carly, Hazel, Olive & Juniper - Birth Centre Care in Texas, Vaginal Breech Delivery, Tongue Ties & a Home Birth in Czech Republic

Carly shares her three birth stories with us with her three girls, Hazel, Olive & Juniper. Hazel and Olive were born in Texas in a birth centre and Carly shares how it was like to navigate the health care system and looking for a provider. Olive was a frank breech baby and Carly shares her journey towards trying to find support for a vaginal delivery and she managed to find a team of midwives who delivered Olive.

The whole family then moved to the Czech Republic and Carly shares her journey through pregnancy while moving continents and trying to find care and support not only in a new country, but also through a pandemic. They had a home birth with Juniper and we discuss how it is finding support for a home birth in Prague and we both try to respect and protect the people that support the home birth system here as it isn’t fully legal yet for midwives to attend home births. Hopefully one day I’ll get to go in and edit this text to the contrary. If you have any questions about home birth in CZ you can reach out to either me or Carly and we’ll try to guide you the best we can.

Carly really recommends Kellymom.com and Spinning Babies for all things breastfeeding and breech pregnancies & birth.
